My best guess would be that a greedy Suite snob from Canada scooped them all up, just saying! ?

No announcement (yet)

If you let me know which company I can maybe help. Some are now letting you EFT or paying by phone. 

I guess I've actually been under a rock.  I think they fooled me with the "Updated June 8th 2020" footnote.  Never mind... (he said as he slinked silently back into his comfy chair)  ?

Yikes !  We are on Symphony on August 1.  I don't know if I am so happy about perhaps being the first guinea pigs.

I have 9 cruises booked, talk about juggling!!  I have no clue when, where what ship etc!! LOL

I just can't imagine what this is like.  Praying for all.

Ummmm.....is "Mr.Speed Noodles" aware he is being called Mr.Speed Noodles by a bunch of random internet people?

Just saw this, I was booked on Sky for NE/Canada.  that's ok, I wasn't going anyway! LOL  Does not bode well for the rest of the industry.  Booked on Odyssey for December, thinking that may not happen.

While there is no doubt the cruise lines will face big challenges in the coming months/years.  Being written by CNBC means that the cruise line will be shown in the most negative light possible.  Frankly,  I'm surprised they didn't lob in a "floating petri dish" grenade somewhere in the piece.

@SpeedNoodles What’s worse is there taking information/guidance from WHO.?

LOL! I needed that. I guess we are all just hanging around dreaming of that sailaway.

Odyssey Inaugural is also down to $49. Thanks to @SpeedNoodles for the heads up earlier tonight.

I am too.  Lady G held a special place in my heart, first cruise with my husband who is now terminally ill.  The staff and crew were the absolute best.  Both cruises provided us though with fabulous lifetime memories.

I find this so very sad.  Praying for RC and it's employees

Got this in my daily headlines email, talks about the cruise ship staff stuck on board and unable to leave since the shutdown happened. Mostly talking about Princess and HAL, but final sections talks about Ovation and a worker there. Actually makes positive statements about their condition / treatment, how the captain has been trying to help them, etc. First piece I’ve seen in a while covering the cruise industry in any kind of positive light, and even that’s tinged with a lot of negativity from the article’s main premise.

Thanks for the suggestion. Yes, I have applied for the PPP loan which would cover salaries for up to 2 months. I believe it to be fully forgiven if used for such. Awaiting word on that, my bank submitted our application last week. No timeline on approval process.
Timing unknown for so much. Hope everyone stays safe and healthy till we begin to resume normal lives and cruising again!
