Lockdown is not that harsh in many states and cities. I think it depends on the number of people living there. Metrapolis is the one that has the most painfull lockdown It has nothing to do with local conditions. Like the CDC in the US, the Aussie Health Minister extended the existing cruise ban till mid-June (was to expire this month). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She’s probably the most likely choice of second ship for Sydney. There are no entries in Darwin’s port calendar that would indicate a ship coming from Asia late in 2022. Isn’t radiance supposed to be in the Caribbean. But that would make the most sense.its in the neighbourhood. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I am not mistaken, Baltic states are allowed to cruise in the Baltic sea. I wonder who is allowed on board those ships.. rivercruises as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder who is allowed on board those ships.. rivercruises as well There are some ships going between Sweden, Finland and Estonia but it’s not recommended to travel at the moment so it’s mainly trucks etc. I’m not sure about the other countries but you are not allowed to entry Finland without a proper reason and tourism isn’t any of them. You can’t board any ship to Finland without a negative test result unless you are a truck driver, also need a negative test if flying to Finland with Finnair. Situation in Estonia and Sweden is much worse than in Finland and I don’t see anyone taking a cruise even if it was possible. Which it basically isn’t.

My theory of Navigator going into drydock comes from the gap that appeared in cruises in February 2022 on Navigator. I am also confused why they would not just use Voyager from Los Angeles.

My thoughts are maybe they will send navigator in ,put the electrical conversation in And if they can do some cutting to lower the height. I think they only need a meter ,so it can go through the Panama Canal. Voyeger probably wasn’t worth spending money on as it’s a bit run down.

Rare twangster Posted March 9, 2021 #1396 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Navigator has established booked cruises in Florida through 2021. Not just some cruises. The very cruises that Royal has been pointing to that will be the restart of the company. So right when cruising is poised to restart or has just restarted with short Florida cruises they'll rip Navigator out of Florida to spend millions re-engineering the stack to drop her height, if that is even possible, while also spending a bunch to add shore power capability, then to spend several hundreds of thousands to sail empty through the Panama Canal just to achieve the October 2021 schedule that the port has published? Sending her to a shipyard for extensive mods combined with a canal repo to Cali. or sailing around South America as is both mean 40-60 days. That means taking her out of Florida In August or early September when she is supposed to be rocking the short FL restart. Not buying it, none of those are sound business decisions on their own but together? Nope. At the same time Voyager has a full dance card. Cancel her established cruises to enter the Cali. market in Oct. 2021 with zero bookings months before a debut during a pandemic? That has stupid business 101 written all over it. To enter a market fresh they will want a full sales cycle to ensure the ship is full. Royal will sail in Cali but I'm not convinced it will be in 2021. I'm putting my money on a big marketing campaign with over a year to sell the ship while they finish the short FL season as established and then mod the ship for Cali. 2022 baby! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
