superduper123 Posted January 14, 2021 #1 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Curious how recently you got to cruise prior to the shutdown? For me it was Feb 15 2020, Adventure of the Seas. 8 Night Eastern Caribbean....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare vacationlover_mn Posted January 14, 2021 #2 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Late Feb of '20 on Oasis. We had heard rumblings of some new flu thing. DH made me wash hands after taking a pic of a couple, using their phone. But, it seemed mostly normal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anchored in Chesapeake Bay overnight thru the following afternoon. * Nassau was skipped due to delayed departure. * Emergency stop in Port Canaveral for medical evaluation. * Beautiful day at Coco Cay. * Cool and windy at Port Canaveral. * Rain in Charleston.

MiniChunks Posted January 14, 2021 #4 Share Posted January 14, 2021 (edited) 3/2/20 11 nights on Serenade of the Seas. Disembarked 3/13/20. We were lucky enough to be on one of the last full cruises before all this crap started. We were also lucky enough to call on Costa Rica, Panama, Columbia, Aruba and Curacao with no hitches in our journey. Made all ports and returned on time.

It's definitely one that I wouldn't mind doing again, but at this point I'll take just about any ship going anywhere! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdrocks Posted January 14, 2021 #8 Share Posted January 14, 2021 We did a b2b on the Oasis in Feb 2020. So glad we did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouhunter Posted January 14, 2021 #9 Share Posted January 14, 2021 (edited) March 8-15 2020 on HAL. Pretty much the end of cruising except for some infected ships wandering around. It was a fantastic cruise, missed one port but that was due to weather not covid. It was surreal cruising that week listening to news of the world shutting down every day. We had planned to spend a week in Destin after the cruise, but just got in the car and drove home to Michigan.....

klass2 Posted January 14, 2021 #13 Share Posted January 14, 2021 I was on the Allure Transatlantic March 1, 2020. We disembarked in Barcelona on March 13. I quickly flew to the UK for a few days and then back to the states to quarantine. It was a bit chaotic as I had to change my travel plans three times while on the TA. I spent my last days at sea trying to email/call to change and cancel my post cruise plans. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grapau27 Posted January 14, 2021 #14 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Last cruise was a 15 night Hawaiian cruise on Grand Princess end of November 2019. Last RCG cruise was on Explorer of the seas in October 2019. Graham. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flight to Heathrow the next morning, then home. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OACAggie Posted January 14, 2021 #16 Share Posted January 14, 2021 We were fortunate to be on the last Oasis cruise in March 2020. Surreal getting off as so much in the world changed/shutdown from when we got on, but was a fantastic cruise! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dplusd Posted January 14, 2021 #17 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Got sick toward the end of the first leg of a B2B in February 2020. We had to cancel the 2nd week to fly home. When straight to the hospital and was admitted for 5 days with flu/pneumonia. After spending a night in the ship ER, all I wanted to do was get home. I would never want to be really sick on a ship! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cigar King Posted January 14, 2021 #19 Share Posted January 14, 2021 We got off the Brilliance on March 16th, when they shut off cruising. Right now, that's out next booked cruise. Brilliance in June. I'd really like that to come off. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpekiTrout Posted January 14, 2021 #20 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Dec 8 2019 Anthem of the Seas .. 12 nights .. WE were fine .. but many towards the end of cruise or when they returned home were ill. Flu like symptons and coughs for weeks afterward. Many thought they had Covid at that time BEFORE it was announced. Who knows! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My last cruise was the Grandeur, debarking on 20 Feb 2020. Emergency stop in SC, skipped St Croix to make up time. Piano player in the Schooner got the flu and couldn't entertain the last 2 nights. Lots of folks with the flu. Rumors ran rampant about did we get that new virus or what. Got nothing from RCI explaining what went wrong, but then I didn't expect to either. Didn't discourage me either, as I still have two cruises on the books, and I'm sure hoping they both sail. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retiredgram Posted January 14, 2021 #22 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Debarked the Grandeur Feb. 28 after a B2B2B. It was an annual thing we do every year to get away from the cold without having to fly. Also got to enjoy the $18 drink package.🍹 We heard rumors of the virus on the last cruise. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginlyn Posted January 14, 2021 #23 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Last cruise was January 2020 out of Port Canaveral for our anniversary. We usually winter in Cape Canaveral but, alas, I’m at home in Canada this winter ☹️. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
