Sitting on tons of air miles (MM and LM), but no availability in Biz. 😩 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LACruiser88 Posted April 28 Author #482 Share Posted April 28 The below was posted on the Roll Call for our voyage by a fellow passenger a few minutes ago. We have been hearing a lot of folks coughing and sneezing. 🥺 FYI to all, I have been quarantining for Covid for a few days now (i started feeling off probably a week or so ago now). I thought I had a sinus infection, but they offered to test me when I went in for possible antibiotics. My symptoms have been none of the well known ones. It really has been like a sinus infection where my head just feels full and I cough up some ick. The nurse said Covid is definitely aboard (ie, I’m definitely not patient zero). I’m sure in the back of our heads, we all know it’s here, but if anyone has any particular concerns that they might be high risk, ratcheting up precautions is probably a good idea. My case has been mild. I’m not weak or tired and I don’t have a problem with breathing or feel like death. I hope if anyone else here gets it (or has it), it is as mild. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be the humid air, I have no idea. Was doing my regular laps today and it will be my last time going through the Hollywood Conservatory. Deep coughing and it wasn't just the chorine air, starting to sound like seals barking. Unfortunately people don't care, they will do what they want regardless if feeling sick or not. Here we go. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gypsygal1962 Posted April 28 #484 Share Posted April 28 It's disheartening to see that many folks don't think that coughing into one's hands then touching railings, etc is okay. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly this is true - not just no cruise ships either we were supposed to be on Majestic in Feb 2023, but about 3 weeks before final payment in 2022, Majestic docked in Sydney with over 800 covid positive people on board... we decided to cancel that cruise mainly due to the large number of covid cases still happening on cruise ships We're on Crown Princess in December, so hopefully we'll be ok.... we're certainly not living our lives around covid,but we are still weary of catching it 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as you have travel insurance the best place to come down with Covid is on a cruise. We've done ten cruises since the restart and I've had Covid on two of them. One was on Coral Princess in 2022 when all treatment was free. Princess were amazing. The second time was on another cruise line late last year, also amazing care but very expensive - thank goodness for travel insurance. That one had me fooled as the symptoms were totally different to the first time - I thought it was a sinus issue, possibly triggered by something onboard the ship (perfume?). It was only when I started to cough that I did a RAT and discovered it was Covid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
