So tragic, I hope your suffering is short lived. I do wish we returned to the days of science fiction in dealing with the virus.

I thought so, which means Odyssey going to PC doesn't have anything to do with Royals request to start test cruises from there. It's odd that PC is first though. Not that I am complaining I want my Sept cruise to happen so bad!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted May 19, 2021 #20 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Might be easier to get the agreements done with a small jurisdiction like Port Canaveral than larger more complicated ones like Miami or Lauderdale 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're on the sailing prior to you on 8/29. What is the Governor saying that leads you to believe he has a negative stance on cruising resuming?

NJsharon Posted May 19, 2021 #22 Share Posted May 19, 2021 So right now there is going to be one ship doing a test cruise from FL, and only a couple of thousand crew being vaccinated (not more than one ship needs). So then, I am guessing no cruising from Baltimore until August maybe? Figure you have to wait 3-4 weeks inbetween shots, and only the crew from the one ship is getting them now. Then they may have to do a test cruise from Baltimore too eventually? 😞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pstone1 Posted May 19, 2021 #23 Share Posted May 19, 2021 There was just a big story on the news here about the Explorer vaccinating crew today at Port Canaveral. Seems Royal Caribbean has finalized a “Port Agreement” with Port Canaveral, which must now be approved by the state and the CDC, before a test cruise can sail. The Port Canaveral CEO said (live on camera) that he believes ships will sail from Port Canaveral this summer. According to WFTV, Port Canaveral is working on similar Agreements with two other unnamed Cruise Lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpurdy Posted May 19, 2021 #24 Share Posted May 19, 2021 I believe they know if July cruises are in or out. It is so frustrating to be inside 60 days and still be in limbo with our money tied up. Most people thought for sure we would have heard by last week, then beginning of the week, now end of this week. 😡 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
