I've not checked OS prices but on a first trip to Europe, on a port intensive itinerary the cabin wouldn't be that important to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They must have been adding as we speak...Only Aug. popped up when I checked. And Sept. is $600 less 😉 Edited May 21, 2021 by crzndeb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a vaccinated passenger were in the rare event contract Covid they would be quarantined in a separate area in the medical area. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't have any of the bookings available online yet. I also checked a short time ago. They have a sample itinerary shown but that's all so far. I think it was a copy/paste from Radiance because it still shows Victoria as a stop and I doubt that's going to happen. Not sure if we'll have our original itinerary or not. Wondering if the sail date is going to change too though. I took a quick look at Air2Sea and it shows the original sail date but doesn't let you look at flights. It also shows the day after and you can see flights using that selection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Final Payment is about 4 weeks away, June 20th. Do you think Royal will annouce a firm itinerary for Harmony(Mid September) and if the sailing is a go by then. I would think we would have to make a decision by then how we want to handle this. My wife is adamant she doesn't want us to cruise at this time and I agree with her. We have both had the vaccine shots, because of a medical issue, deficient immune system. The shot did not give her the protection from Covid like if gives most people. So not sure at this time she would even be allowed to get on the ship anyway. Because of this, I'm wondering if Royal would give as a case by case issue and allow us to L& S when it might be safer for her next year. I'm pretty sure if we try to go this route my travel agent will have to put in the request to a Supervisor or higher up to try to make this happen. Also if there is an itinerary change that also might help our case. Or if we would pay the final payment, and actually cancel about a week or less before the cruise with the CWC, just how long would we have to use the FCC and sail by date as the rules stand now?

You can cancel under CWC. Depending on how much the itinerary changes they may also offer refunds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamon Posted May 22, 2021 #66 Share Posted May 22, 2021 I see that Alaska cruises might be starting as early as July. But even with Congress dropping the requirement that you must visit a non us port, I didn't see where the CDC has approved the sailings with all the requirements they have....or did I miss something???

RCI's decision to allow refunds may depend on the details of the change - if it's a single port change they may not offer refunds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare orville99 Posted May 22, 2021 #69 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Just got my first promotional email for Alaska cruises. Looks like the Vaccine policy is in place here as well as in the Bahamas - probably the new standard fleetwide... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL, so aleast we have a chance..........I guess for now I just hope we hear something about what Harmony is doing before June 20th and then we plan what we are going to try to do after seeing that. What's your thought if we will know by then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blizzard54 Posted May 22, 2021 #71 Share Posted May 22, 2021 In looking at the technical info on the CDC site I found that there is a possible waiver of the test cruises if 95% of crew and passengers are vaccinated. By requiring vaccination they can clear that hurdle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
