Right now masks are to be required to be worm even on Labadee and Coco Cay. Not for us!

D. B. Posted May 12, 2021 #207 Share Posted May 12, 2021 My wife and I are booked on the Oasis of the Seas from Bayonne NJ on October 3-10 and I Hope by then US Ports will be open! We have so many FCC's from cancelled cruises we need to get back to cruising. I am surprised that Celebrity has not (Yet) cancelled our July 16-23 2021 sailing from Seattle to Alaska ! I think of it as my Giving RCCL a Loan of my fully paid Fare with a possible %25 return (interest)when they cancel it? I have a Celebrity Summit 14 day Transatlantic cruise booked for August 1-15, 2021 ending in London. I guess Celebrity could have that one leave from St. Maarten rather than Bayonne NJ ? In the closer time we will be sailing on the Celebrity Millennium June 10-19,2021 out of St. Maarten. Hey only 1/2 full and probably few Children.

NJsharon Posted May 12, 2021 #209 Share Posted May 12, 2021 I guess no word on July sailings from Baltimore to Bermuda? Thought that would be today. Not wanting to cancel unless we have to, still want to go if we can! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not wanting to cancel unless we have to, still want to go if we can! We are waiting to hear something also. We are hoping that they might move the sailings to a 7-7 versus the current 9-5 night and, since Canada isn't an option, sail south to Bahamas or have sailings only to Bermuda. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I was hoping they would just change the 9 day to a 7 day, then they have 2 days in between to clean the ship maybe? Made sense to me, as how can they sanitize the whole ship fully in just 1-2 hours before the next passengers come on board? Bermuda is open to tourists also. So holding out hope! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawninFL Posted May 13, 2021 #212 Share Posted May 13, 2021 I think after the CDC's disclosure today relaxing the mask and port exploration rules will allow the cruise lines to move forward with their return to service plans. I expect we'll know which July sailings are being cancelled and which ones will begin service in the next weeks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll wear a mask indoors with no complaints, but outdoors and especially on the pool deck is a deal-breaker for me. Especially when there's a 98% vaccination requirement and the CDC's own recommendations don't require masks outdoors anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This small bit of protocol relaxing will not make any difference in resumption of service, in my opinion. The terrible shoreside agreements are still in full play, and that is a MAJOR non starter.

Then you may be then forced to stay on the ship. Cruise to nowhere, that some unlike you may not want.

I would wait and buy them on the ship - even if they cost more or simply stay on the ship, which is what I intend to do if ship sponsored excursions are my only option in November on Oasis. I asked RCCL via FB messenger and they told me that All cruise planner purchase are 100% refundable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only change is a deletion of this paragraph under the Lift & Shift option: • If your sailing was cancelled on: - April 8th, 2021, please contact your Travel Advisor or call us by April 22nd, 2021 to move to a new sailing.

jpurdy Posted May 14, 2021 #222 Share Posted May 14, 2021 Surely RCCL knows if they can resume in July regardless of yesterday’s CDC ruling. We need a decision. I would like to make other plans as soon as possible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

100viper Posted May 14, 2021 #224 Share Posted May 14, 2021 Disney just pulled their July cruises off their booking site. However they did not cancel existing reservations. Which either means the cruises are soon to be canceled, or Disney is pulling them to limit capacity. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So a decision can be made today whether they can resume regardless of what happened yesterday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
