@WAAAYTOOO this morning there’s a change, the Voyager 12/30 has been changed to adventure and the suite is correct. No change yet for 12/22. My first clue was that there was an email this morning indicating all the reservations for that sailing had been canceled. Do you show the same?

We were on a b2b Christmas/New Year’s cruise, so all we want is the dates not to change at this point (and to keep the same panoramic suite for both legs).

Ah in the planner? Interesting!

It is too bad there aren’t more options with the Royal up and similar program since a we usually sail alone in suite but might be willing to upgrade to a larger suite that holds 6-8 people if there were a way to add on others (but it would be such a waste of money to do that just for the two of us). We have found ourselves in this position a few times with both Royal and Norwegian.

Which ship shows a different itinerary? I think the ships are still showing the original itineraries as they haven’t been switched over yet. That is at least the case with the two we have that will be transferred.

You are saying that your cruise planner on RCCL is showing the new sailing with the same cabin? I don’t know of anyone who has been transferred that shows anything beyond that the original has been cancelled. Could you clarify? (Our sailings show two ways - one shows as cancelled, one doesn’t, neither show a transfer as below)

At least you are in good company

August 18th Is the deadline for those on our sailing (and others?) to let royal know if they want to cancel the cruise, so I am assuming it will occur around that date. Hopefully very soon after.

See the image below:

I’m 62 and I’ve been on the Internet since my first Apple IIe in my early 20’s where I harassed 15 yo old sysops on ascii based text “boards” so believe me I understand there are trolls. But as a Clinical Psychologist I’m talking about human behavior here and in my view the nasty reactions are far more negative and annoying that the people who post about a problem (even if done with inarticulately or with frustration). A few are fake perhaps, but some aren’t (and no troll cares about derision so all that snarkiness thrown at them is wasted anyway).

If someone else snagged them I know at least 2 women who will be at their door screaming obscenities

Good morning cruise neighbor Are you showing the replacement cruise on the 12/30/23 one or is one not there at all? We showed “cancelled” for both legs still. @smokeybandit did you cruise disappear entirely?

Just a thought - a lot of people will come to a board first with a need or a problem. They might first come with a genuine issue and then stay on to become a wonderful part of the community. But when they post people so often scorn them, ridicule them, or just plain blow them out of the water. I see this on all the travel boards and it is at best unattractive. The main reason that people are “one and done” is more about the response that they get than about the intent of the OP. I wouldn’t return either in their shoes. Thankfully in this thread there was less of the attack and more thoughtful, helpful responses

Thanks for getting that title changed/moved. Fingers crossed nothing changes on this b2b, we were really excited about this one even so far out!

I just don’t wanna worry about it

I haven’t gotten that information yet. I hope they confirm that for me soon! We also haven’t been on voyage or we’re looking forward to that, but as long as it’s the same price we’re good I will feel a lot better when we get a confirmation on it.

Should be easier to change the title here to the new sailing than at CC at least strange that I didn’t get a separate email for the back to back for New Year’s. I’m just going to have to presume though the same thing applies.

Although we are twice vaccinated and twice boosted, given the increase in this particularly contagious variant we are going to mask on the plane and in the airport for our upcoming B2B. We will have masks with us and may mask in the theater or other crowded areas of the ship as well. It is what we believe is best for our health and we also hope to try to avoid Covid jail on a ship for our summer vacation! Honestly, since I’ve been masking during Covid I have avoided both cold and flu viruses and that has been wonderful (because even a bad cold can ruin a solid 2 weeks for me). Enjoy your cruise

If you don’t get your pins , you can see the loyalty ambassador next time you are onboard about that. They may be able to give you the ones you’re missing as well.

It is standard for them to leave those envelopes. If you don’t want to use them, ignore them. We give some people extra tips including our room steward and the concierge so we find it helpful to have extras (although we usually go by guest services and get extra ones). I can’t see a reason to be irritated by it.

Wow, it is hard for me to think of 2024 now But yes, this was an amazing deal. We booked in March and got one of the panoramic suites - not as good a deal as the balconies for sure, but still not close to what we would expect for a Christmas cruise! Welcome to the roll call

We added another Lady G just for good measure

Great, glad that fixed the issue

I only referred to the large metro area in which I live.

Please note that I did not say the orange status was new or not new. I simply added the fact that there were several ships that were in orange in addition to the information regarding the uptick in cases in our area. My information was not inaccurate. It appears that you misread my post.
