Thanks for sharing that article.  A very good (but sad) update.

I've got a first-ever, bucket list world cruise booked in 2022 and the final payment is not due until the end of September 2021.  By then things will either be back to normal or it will be the zombie apocalypse. 

 

Keeping my fingers crossed for a worldwide vaccine by then.

Certainly a difficult time.   I suspect we will see more cruises being cancelled into early to mid 2021.  If the new date in 2022 works for you then I would say accept the offer.
