luv4cruises Posted November 28, 2021 #1 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Final payment is upon me. We were so excited to book the brand new Enchanted for March 2022. We cruised on Celebrity last August. No masks for vaccinated guests and all the dancing venues were open. We love the Grand Foyer on Celebrity and the Piazza on Princess. If the dancing venues are not open and masks are required while dancing we will have to switch to Celebrity. Here’s hoping that dancing is happening! We cruise on both lines regularly. We love to dance and to snorkel! Princess has the best southern Caribbean itinerary! At thus time Celebrity has best post-pandemic experience and procedures- cancel up to 48 hours before embarkation for full FCC, fly you home on charter plane at their expense if you get Covid on board. Thanks for your input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Level six Posted November 28, 2021 #4 Share Posted November 28, 2021 There was dancing on the Grand a few weeks ago. Not many people, maybe 2-3 couples (only 600 0n sailing) No masks. But Explorers is a sip and cover venue, so most people wore masks. I never saw dancing anywhere else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare AnyMajorCruiseDude Posted November 28, 2021 #5 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Friends of ours have cancelled upcoming Princess voyages as they were asked to adhere to policy when floor was crowded. We booked more. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greysandy Posted November 28, 2021 #6 Share Posted November 28, 2021 We just got off the Majestic Princess, which was only about 45% full. There were about 10 couples dancing in the piazza at various times and none were wearing masks. When we danced at one of the 70's/80's music events, we didn't wear them either. Nobody doing cardio in the fitness center wore them, and only a few people lifting weights did. Zumba and line dancing were held outside so again no masks.

CruisinFinsUp Posted November 29, 2021 #7 Share Posted November 29, 2021 https://www.princess.com/plan/cruise-with-confidence/cruise-health/ https://www.princess.com/plan/cruise-with-confidence/cruise-health/frequently-asked-questions/us-cruises/ Watch these pages. The rules today may not be the same tomorrow or later as they continue to change in reaction to the pandemic. Princess is clear in the FAQ about masks and onboard offerings. The world is currently not "post-pandemic". You mention cruising in March 2022. Currently, the above Princess rules expire Feb 28. However, they may be extended at any time as noone knows what will happen next. https://www.princess.com/plan/cruise-with-confidence/ Here is Princess' cancellation policy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare HaveDogWillTravel Posted November 29, 2021 #10 Share Posted November 29, 2021 (edited) Lots of dancing in explorers (Grace’s Secret live band_awesome!), piazza (mariachi band also awesome) and in Club Fusion (recorded ballroom) on the Ruby last night. Most people were maskless. Edited November 29, 2021 by HaveDogWillTravel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right but does not compare to dance floor on Cunard, plus on Cunard there is a band playing every night for passenger dancing pleasures.

Steelers36 Posted November 30, 2021 #14 Share Posted November 30, 2021 I don't mind that Princess does not have large dance floors. Would be completely a waste for me. LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the Grand foyer isn't that grand with the staircase descending to the middle on Solstice class ships. Edge class ships have a really nice sized dance floor in their night club venue however.

The Sky lounge is half the size on Reflection, due to the sky suites on the port side, compared to Silhouette and Solstice. The atriums on Royal class ships are so much bigger than what Celebrity offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare HaveDogWillTravel Posted November 30, 2021 #20 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Everyone is masked indoors at all times when walking around or in the shops. Once seated for shows and game shows etc it is sip and cover. In indoor bars & MDR the masks come off once seated. Very, very few flaunting these protocols. Dancing (and high intensity workouts in gym) is the only time I’ve seen people without masks. I am not bothered by this. But to each their own. outside no masks are worn.
