It's one thing for the CDC to ban ships sailing longer itineraries due to public health concerns.  It's another matter altogether for the CDC to become involved with how cruise lines market cruises.
Someone needs to challenge this in court.  It's a government overreach and potentially violates freedom of speech.  "If you talk about cruises longer than 7 days we are going to shut you down".

Hi, I'm Rob and i am an "aft junkie?"
 
But seriously, I have done this in Alaska and loved it!  We adjusted quite easily to looking at where you have been instead of where you are going. The break from the wind chill is a big plus too. The negative for this class of ship will be that you are on deck ten which is under the outdoor dining area.

I have wrestled with this on my Pinnacle journey and two cruises usually won out. Hard to regret going on two adventures instead of one ?

I enjoyed the blog also but it did not include my top saying: "I'm only _______ cruises from Pinnacle"
My other favorite saying is: "Some day they will call me Super Steve!!"

I was on the Serenade repo from BOS-FLL exactly one year ago.
 
Returned to have torn retina surgery that same month, a minor stroke this past March and cataract surgery in June. No pity party, though!
Losing weight, exercising and ready to meet more new friends in February on the Empress and Allure ?

So pricing is back to normal?  

Always, Always, Always travel the day before.  Murphy's law will always rear its ugly head if you don't.
That being said, here is a funny day of cruise travel story.  On our first cruise 20+ years ago we were travelling with my parents out of Detroit Metro to Miami to board the Sunsation.  At that time flights and transfers and pretty much everything was booked through the cruise company and they advertised that they would get you to the boat if there was a problem with the flight they booked, blah blah blah.  In any case, we show up at the airport for our 6:00 am flight on Northwest to Miami.  At that time, Northwest was flying 8 flights out of Detroit to Miami on Saturdays and Sundays before noon as Detroit was, and remains, a big hub.  As luck would have it, Northwest was having some employee problems when we were scheduled to go.  Planes would suddenly be called out of service because lavatory lights were not working and other such delays were causing havoc every day.  Anyway, we show up at the gate and there is no plane waiting for our flight.  You would have thought that the other folks waiting at the gate were trying to find an ambulance to get to the hospital.  I have never heard a gate attendant get yelled at as much as the poor lady checking folks in.  People were simply losing their minds because the plane had not been moved to the gate.  
After sitting off to the side for about 15 minutes my group of four was approached by the gate attendant who very quietly asked for our tickets.  My first thought was, well here he go we are not getting to Miami today.  After a few minutes she comes back and hands us back our tickets, smiles and says "thank you for being patient with us, I have bumped your group to first class."  I almost fell out of my chair.  It just shows that civility and keeping calm does sometimes pay off.
Of course I also had to listen to my mother, who had never been on a plane, keep telling me that flying was not so bad for the entire cruise.  She found out how things really work with the return flight in steerage!

Interjecting logic now are we ? ?

OK, I'm just going to wait for you two to post on stuff like this going forward. ?
