Rare All-ready2cruise Posted May 26, 2021 #2 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Yea, it's devastating for those with cruises booked on some of the ships. Even the TA on the Escape in Nov. has been cancelled; wonder what they'll do about getting the escape back the US. Thanks for posting these redeployment plans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinNewbie11 Posted May 26, 2021 #3 Share Posted May 26, 2021 I am on the Epic for the tranatlantic in Nov, 2021. It has not been cancelled but I am fearing that the TA will be cancelled and the Epic will remain in Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are these final approvals or a wish list?? They can say whatever they want: do they have any intention of following through?? I would like to see the official approvals from the Governments involved for these Sailing, especially Australia, Asia - Hong Kong and Japan, New York Harbor because it is very convenient for Mr Del Rio to leave in the clause about more changes coming and possibility of future changes after he has more of peoples money!! I no longer trust NCL, and that has nothing to do with COVID it is the way they are now handling/treating their cruises and customers. Cash Grab - Put out the Bait then slap them down?? Fool me once (well twice) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
logan25 Posted May 26, 2021 #5 Share Posted May 26, 2021 IMO Not very ambitious plan through the end of October for 100% vaccinated crew and passengers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeHeartCruising Posted May 26, 2021 #6 Share Posted May 26, 2021 (edited) Yep. My Mediterranean B2B on the Spirit in October/November was cancelled today. I can't say I'm surprised. But it still hurts. Sigh. Edited May 26, 2021 by MeHeartCruising Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sand and Seas Posted May 26, 2021 Author #9 Share Posted May 26, 2021 I feel so sorry for the additional cancellations. We have all been through that and know how tough it is to cancel/change air and hotel reservations. It's kind of reassuring to me to see how they are trying to get the entire fleet back. The logistics with crew, ports and provisioning is mind-boggling to me. And, I would have never guessed first cruises from US ports would be from Seattle first. (So good that the temporary law was passed to allow it!) Here are more quotes from the link provided above: Earlier this week, NCL also announced its return to Seattle for the Alaska cruise season, with a start date of Aug. 7, 2021. Voyages expected to operate in the U.S. are contingent on obtaining a Conditional Sailing Certificate from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (“CDC”). .....Due to the previously disclosed lead time needed to relaunch a vessel and in order to maximize the short Alaska cruise season, the cruise line has made the decision to transfer crew from Norwegian Joy to Alaska and has canceled itineraries aboard Norwegian Joy from Montego Bay, Jamaica. Guests and Travel Partners with impacted reservations will be contacted directly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
