Rare cruiselvr04 Posted February 5, 2021 #33 Share Posted February 5, 2021 My husband knows an oasis class divers mom. Her son was asked to prepare to report in April. Who knows if it will really happen? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sellwingri Posted February 6, 2021 #38 Share Posted February 6, 2021 I’m friends with a Casino Host and she just received a contract on a ship in Miami beginning in May. She hasn’t received a contract since Covid began so this could be good news. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She will be going to Mariner of the Seas, but not until July This is one of my guesses about what ship might start cruising first. 3 and 4 nighter and they could limit the port(s) to Coco Cay. I would guess RCI would keep Mariner homeported in Port Canaveral. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lizzius Posted February 7, 2021 #45 Share Posted February 7, 2021 On 1/29/2021 at 8:07 PM, hallux said: It might be some time off yet. NCL is repatriating the crew they had already started moving toward the US to crew ships. If that's any indication... I should add that if Royal plans to require crew to get the vaccine before serving on a cruise with paying passengers, those crew are likely going to need to get the vaccine in their home country. Many of those countries are going to be behind Europe and North America when it comes to getting the vaccine. I think I heard that once the J&J vaccine is approved it is one that can be easily produced in facilities in India that have a large capacity so the possibility of them being able to get a vaccine will increase considerably. I'd imagine most of their home countries will probably be supplying one of the recent Chinese approvals or the Sputnik regimen (though I think the Chinese ones are both inactivated virus vaccines and easier to store).

I hope she does start her summer season but I can't see Barcelona port opening for a while yet. We are booked for 23rd May and really hope it goes ahead but after 6 cancellations so far I don't really believe it will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarlicBread Posted February 7, 2021 #48 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Hello, crew member here 👋 The only non essential crew I know who have had an LOE are those who are now on Quantum or those who have needed to update documents, and once those documents are updated that LOE goes. Royal have told us in their newsletters that that would be the case so not unexpected for now. They also have said those that go back first will be those with the least travel restrictions and those from countries with low covid numbers. So I'm not going anywhere soon even with my vaccination 🤣🤣 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was an AP story in the paper today that was very favorable about the Sputnik V, and many EU countries have begun authorization. The study and recommendation came from The Lancet medical journal. They quoted a 91% efficacy rate, and “far superior performance” to Chinese candidates.
