dwlmg Posted February 25, 2021 #1 Share Posted February 25, 2021 My June 2021 Alaska Cruise was locked for update this morning (25 Feb 2021). I suspect it is the start of the cancellation process. Earlier my air reservation was tagged as not available due to airline change on the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwlmg Posted February 25, 2021 Author #2 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Go figure. I just re-accessed the cruise on MyViking Journey and it is no longer locked and my air reservation is there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moatenote Posted February 25, 2021 #3 Share Posted February 25, 2021 We're scheduled for Alaska cruise on June 8-18, 2021. I keep expecting Viking to cancel it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haydn12 Posted February 26, 2021 #4 Share Posted February 26, 2021 We are on the same cruise from June 8-18. It seemed weird to get the airline flights after Canada prohibited the cruises until next year. Wish Viking would go ahead and do the cancellation. We plan on hitting a couple resorts in Tennessee and Virginia in place of the cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Equally, Eastern Seaboard Explorer starting in Montreal is obviously a no go, but as yet not cancelled, really frustrating. I fully I understand that Viking are very busy with the recent cancellations, but the no Canada cruising was announced before latest from Viking. I just wish they would be honest.

Jim Avery Posted February 26, 2021 #7 Share Posted February 26, 2021 It is my understanding that CLIA is still in talks (begging?) with Canada. Also heard there are talks with US about removing/relaxing the provisions of the Passenger Vessels Services Act. I guess hoping against hope. Of the two, I would hope for Canada first. Congress has no interest in companies flagged/taxed in other countries, employing non-union labor being bailed out in any way. Even though a great many cruise lines are ultimately US owned or partially owned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Clay Clayton Posted February 26, 2021 #8 Share Posted February 26, 2021 I wonder if Norwegian Cruise Line’s CEO statement yesterday is more a marketing ploy than real optimism. https://cruise.blog/2021/02/norwegian-ceo-cautiously-optimistic-alaska-2021-cruise-season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
