"we need the CSO to be lifted right if people don't want to vaccinated or can't be vaccinated. right? " See post #13 in this thread for the poster who made this comment. The reply was still a response to your post and It doesn't change the fact it was just a motion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare IntrepidFromDC Posted June 7, 2021 #28 Share Posted June 7, 2021 Hopefully the other ship will allow mixed (vax'd and unvax'd). For the kids. I would sail on either kind of ship but I do not want to wear a mask. In DC, some businesses are now enforcing masks for unvaccinated peeps. FINALLY. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mouche Posted June 7, 2021 #29 Share Posted June 7, 2021 I am willing to do what ever it takes to get the ships sailing again, and if that calls for people to be vaccinated for now, then so be it. It may not stay that way forever, but it is my opinion that this would be the best way forward for now. Sorry for all of the folks who may not be able to sail right now. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That way they wouldn't exclude children. If this sticks, I bet they lose at least some loyal customers. I know they make money on drunk party animals, but they also make a ton from families. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that, first, they must make sure they are a viable (income producing) cruise line. If that initially leaves 'family' out to some degree of the first month+ of sailings, that's a small price to pay for progress. We'd all like to see shackles off, but we're making progress - and it's accelerating. Tom 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare BoozinCroozin Posted June 7, 2021 #37 Share Posted June 7, 2021 I like this decision and hope it sticks. Having to wear a mask on a cruise is garbage. No one should be forced to wear a mask because some people refuse to be vaccinated. If they do have mixed cruises, those that are vaccinated can have a special wristband to indicate they don't need a mask. Those not vaccinated must be separated 6' and it is their responsibility to move to where they can. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare IntrepidFromDC Posted June 7, 2021 #45 Share Posted June 7, 2021 Just now, stellarose said: CCL might have vaccinated cruises till the end of 21'. just saying. I don't think so. I think they'll start with vax'd only (recall our discussion a week ago on this subject where antivaxers were "celebrating prematurely", thinking Carnival had decided to start mixed?) - oh, looks like they already ARE starting vaxxed only with Alaska and Galveston. Then they'll mix it up and gradually move toward all mixed cruises. That'll provide an opportunity to cruise for everyone, allow kids to sail, allow vaccinated to sail without masks, and let Carnival collect data on which ships had COVID issues and which didn't (hopefully zero). I'll only sail on all vaxed IF the mixed cruises require masks at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My four year old grandson wore a mask every day to school until they finally did away with the mandate. If anyone can't handle having their child wear a mask, then they should probably just stay home. I think it's ridiculous that children have to wear masks, but certainly parents can have their children follow simple rules.

If the August protocols do not allow your granddaughter to go, you will be able to get a full refund since you have not reached final payment yet. This was stated in the August sailings form letter that you should have received via email and which was copied on the boards on one of the threads. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
