Rare Roz Posted February 5, 2021 #2 Share Posted February 5, 2021 I was so optimistic when the vaccines started to roll out, but it's hard to maintain my optimism when all the news regarding travel and cruising is bad. 2023? Maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The desire to for a return to cruising has taken over realism. Perhaps encouraged by the cruise lines selling product that will never leave the dock in order to capture future business. People seem surprised at the Alaska news. Surprised at the Olsen announcement. The notion that the release of vaccines will result in a fairly immediate commencement of cruising is at variance with the covid news and with the covid statistics throughout the world. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we must accept that it may be a very long time before cruising restarts and even longer before it represents anything remotely like what it used to be. In the interim there will probably be significant changes to the industry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iancal Posted February 6, 2021 #7 Share Posted February 6, 2021 (edited) IF, and it is beginning to look like a very doubtful IF, we travel to the Med this fall it will definitely not be on a cruise. It will be for a week or more at a number of island condos by the sea where we can sit by ourselves and do for ourselves so to speak. Even if cruises were operating, the very last place we would want to be in 2021 in on a cruise ship. Edited February 6, 2021 by iancal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
