The Empress appears to be spending another day sunning herself in the Greek Islands.

I wish I was sunning myself in the Greek Islands. 😎🐚

I assume that 1921 is a TYPO!

Inevitable I guess.  Too bad.  Fun ship.

Had 2 weeks booked in March-April 2020

.... got cancelled of course.

There are reports that Empress of the Seas has left UK en route to Malta where she will de store then head to Aliaga to be broken.

So she is currently in port in Souda Bay, Crete in Greece. Does anyone know if the "de store"ing actually occurred in Malta? Royal is still selling cruises on her starting in Nov. 2020.

The three Pullmantur ships each spent the better part of 10 days docked to remove stuff before going to the scrappers - Empress has not spent that kind of time at any dock.

Unfortunately, you need a subscription to read it.

Is TradeWinds a reliable source?

[Tom47]

I also don't subscribe and I don't know about reliability.

Well, I will let you know if I get a cancellation email from RC saying my May 2021 Bermuda cruise on the Empress has been cancelled

I have one scheduled in September, and I wonder how long it will take Royal to send out a cancelation notice.
