Rare whitshel Posted November 1, 2020 #1 Share Posted November 1, 2020 Again just pure speculation, but lets get some ideas of what ships, where, when and how long.... A couple guesses -Obviously Navi and Mariner are 1st with 3 and 4 day Coco Cay on the 3 day and maybe Labadee on the 4 day? ASAP when ever that is -Symphony, Oasis, Harmony and Allure doing alternating Saturday and Sunday to Coco cay, Labadee and either Cozumel or Costa Maya(FL, CC, At sea, Labadee, at sea, Cozumel or Costa Maya, at sea, FL) Can they get from Labadee to MX with just 1 sea day? 1st part of FEB -My big guess-Quantum 3/4 day to Mex (3 day-LA, Ensenada, LA,- 4 Day-LA, Ensenada, San Diego or Catalina, LA) March (getting ready for Alaska) -My second Big Guess-Ovation 7 Day LA, Cabo 2 days, SD or Catalina, LA March (getting ready for Alaska) I know I'm dreaming, but......

You think alaska and west coast more likely than Galveston? Really? And we dont have any cruises after February going to private islands, so sending florida ships to cozumel when they can reach other ports, again cutting Galveston off if they limit ships into ports. I think we only have adventure and liberty after feb. Adventure doing short 4/5 days to cozumel and maybe one more port like costa maya or progresso. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say these were all my guesses, just a couple. After short cruises prove themselves my guess is a lot of drive to ports will have ships. Galveston, Tampa, New Orleans, Bayonne, Seattle. Mexico may be the only other ports open, thats why I'm guessing Cozumel and Costa Maya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuCruise Posted November 1, 2020 #4 Share Posted November 1, 2020 We have a 5 night Bermuda cruise booked. Might be a good in-between one with just one stop and longer than the 3/4 nights but still under a week. Of course, it also depends on departure port and port stops.

rolloman Posted November 1, 2020 #5 Share Posted November 1, 2020 If the tests sailing with employees only go well in November, I look for 3 night cruises to Coco Cay until early 2021. Ship will sail on a Friday come back Monday. Sail again on Tuesday after a deep clean. Good chance of an overnight stay on the island, especially if they can get Casino clearance. Possibly 4 nights run to Labadee as well, similar format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashland Posted November 1, 2020 #6 Share Posted November 1, 2020 I'm keeping my fingers crossed for eventually a 7 nighter out of San Pedro going anywhere other than a coastal itinerary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, lots has to be done first, months worth. Theres probably a good reason people cant sign into their January cruises. We have no idea when, could take I'm guessing 3 months.

Rare orville99 Posted November 1, 2020 #11 Share Posted November 1, 2020 I highly doubt that any ship not currently positioned in the Caribbean will relocate from other parts of the world until the cruise lines have sufficient successful cruises under their belts. Given the CDC requirements for certification, ships not currently under their jurisdiction will have a tough time (certification clock doesn’t start until they are in U.S. waters) getting back into revenue-producing compliance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Ken said no 7 night sailings, and on top of that Canadian ports are still shut to cruise ships. What happens in the States as well as Canada will determine if and when it opens.

That ship has a special exemption from the Jones Act/PVSA. That ship is much more important to Hawaii than a twice a year TP. Plus, Hawaii gets lots of people doing land trips. Alaska would be much more affected if no cruising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Tapi Posted November 2, 2020 #24 Share Posted November 2, 2020 (edited) On 10/31/2020 at 9:46 PM, whitshel said: Can they get from Labadee to MX with just 1 sea day? Doubt it. The distance from Labadee to Cozumel is a good 1,000 nautical miles which would require two sea days. I don’t think that a 7 night itinerary that includes Coco Cay, Labadee and Cozumel would be feasible. It seems like you’d need at least 8 nights to cover that much distance and these 3 ports.
