That would make our next cruise the end of May Harmony cruise, which I fully believe is the only one I have a chance of making in the future...maybe... 😮 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NancyIL Posted November 21, 2020 #80 Share Posted November 21, 2020 I’m a non-drinker, but my husband enjoys the free drinks in the Diamond Lounge. We also use the free internet, laundry, and photo perks. We usually book insides, but I took advantage of the balcony discount to book a junior suite (my first!) on the outrageously inexpensive Adventure Baltic cruise (8/5/21) just before it changed to the Jewel. I sure hope it sails!! 😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed we have...this was the year we were really going to ramp up the longer cruises, international cruises, and B2Bs since we have become (though sadly) pet free as of over a year ago. Well that didn't go as planned. 😞 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M8 Agree...2020 sucks. 😞 Yes, that Presidents cruise we were supposed to be on with you, plus the two legs in the Med just before. Our B2B Alaska August was one of the worst hits, supposed to celebrate Bucky's big milestone birthday, but we did pull that rabbit out of the hat with replacing the two weeks in a sweet cabin in Homer. Would never have experienced that if the cruise had happened. And same here with the river cruise. Supposed to do Jewel B2B (12 nights each) Baltic and British Isles, followed by Viking river 15 day immediately after. RCI cancelled the Jewel, I then had to cancel Viking. Now we are just waiting for official cancellation of the Australia/NZ/Tasmania adventure with TP/South Pacific to Honolulu ...on to Vancouver (big bucket list trip) that was to be 8 legs starting with 2/10/21 through to 5/16/21 on Serenade. RCI dragging their feet to cancel those. 😠 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are very professional, and make the whole process super easy. 🙂 Almost immediate refund back to CC with all funds except 100 a person, that we could use as FCC. I actually did use it within weeks, we are now rebooked for 2023. 🤗 RCI could learn a whole lot from Viking. 😮 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
