TNcruising02 Posted August 5, 2020 #3 Share Posted August 5, 2020 No. That's a huge waste of money to me. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigrednole Posted August 5, 2020 #4 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Probably not. However, we pretty much have to wear them at home anyway. I don't think this is an issue anyway. The CDC has a provided very clear guidance on what cruise lines will need to do in order to port in the US. It is no small list and there is massive financial implications with each cruise. The possibility of mandatory 14-day quarantine for everyone onboard if 1 person tests positive will eliminate a large percentage of cruisers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillHana Posted August 5, 2020 #5 Share Posted August 5, 2020 I am ready for the cruise experience. We were on the last US cruise which ended in late March. Our September cruise is now cancelled. We have one booked for May and if the CDC allows this cruise to happen we will adhere to whatever restrictions are placed. So my answer is I will go with the flow. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinglebert Posted August 5, 2020 #6 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Why bother asking the same question which has been asked in so many other ways in threads. Boring. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe? Also who ever said you'd be required to wear "anytime" out of your cabin? In a restaurant, you wouldn't while eating or drinking. What if they can socially distance on the pool deck? Being outside is always better than inside for this virus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just hypothetical at the moment. Mind you, Royal did trademark "Sea Face" recently...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NO_Member_Name Posted August 6, 2020 #12 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Unfortunately it's probably going to be late next year before we even consider going on a cruise. And, assume it will be after a vaccine has been out and in use for a while. Right now, my wife is actually not allowed back into the office for two weeks if she goes on a cruise. And, if they can't find WFH work for her, it's PTO or time off without pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Grumpus Posted August 6, 2020 #14 Share Posted August 6, 2020 No. There are plenty of nice and fun places to go where you don't need to wear a mask all the time with minimal risk of catching a virus. I feel it will be a long time before I take another cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisefan0110 Posted August 6, 2020 #16 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Yes. Safety first. Until a vaccine or cure is in place, we will probably wear one anyway. It’s no big deal and as said earlier, safety first. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare twangster Posted August 6, 2020 #17 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Probably yes, but a mask is just one possible requirement. I'd need to review all pandemic protocols before making a decision. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrp4352 Posted August 6, 2020 #19 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Yes. I would much rather resume travelling, even if it means wearing a mask. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puerto penasco lady Posted August 6, 2020 #22 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Just point me towards the gang plank....I am under a mandate to wear a mask at all times unless I am in my house or my car....I would much rather be on board a ship, than trapped in my home. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I got a bit crazy with the L and S most bookings are late 2021 and early 2022 hoping things are better by then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zekekelso Posted August 6, 2020 #24 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Wearing a mask doesn’t bother me so much. All things being equal, I’ll take cruise with mask over no cruise. Now the reason masks are required - ie a deadly pandemic - might keep me from cruising. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you be trapped in your house? Unless you are talking about being quarantined and this thread isn't about being quarantined (trapped). But since you brought it up. We would rather be quarantined (trapped as you put it) in our own home than on a cruise ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
