    Just keep watching I believe prices will go down for cabanas, they have gone down for Zip line, Coco Beach Club etc for our Dec sailing. I would think they will go down closer to the sailing, depending on how many they have left.

    I don't really care what they call it as long as I'm happy with the bottom-line price.

    It is a crane or hoist.
    Among other things it is used to lower items into Central Park such as when a tree needs to be replaced.

    Will it also hoist me off the ship if I have too much to eat and can't move?

    Not a bad idea.  $35 "excursion" coming our way - "The Central Park Experience.  Experience Central Park like no other as you are hoisted from deck 8 to deck 15 in 5 minutes"

    We just canceled coco beach club in dec (79.00), got it for 68.99. Still 79.00 for our other cruises, but we will keep looking.

    Once upon a time, I daydreamed about being a U.S. Navy submarine skipper, so I've known about AUTEC for a very long time; but, like @StayFrosty, the mine field/shallow testing area was news to me...though it makes sense as an additional testing ground for sub skipper skills with the evolution of warfare to a more littoral setting.
    Wandering too far the wrong direction would lead to one Bad Day at CocoCay! ?

    Many are also noting the ability for just one person in the stateroom to be able to purchase the DBP at this time (this was an option for me on both Odyssey sailings).

    I am not aware of any law regarding the rapidity of issuing a refund.
    As for banks, once the refund is submitted to the bank by a company the bank has three (3) business days (from COB on the day of the refund) to make funds available if the amount is less than $1000*. The time is extended to seven (7) business days for larger amounts (meaning 9 calendar days because there is guaranteed to be a weekend in there). If a refund is issued after 5:00 p.m. local time for the financial institution, it is the beginning of the NEXT business day so there can be four to ten (4-10) full weekdays before the money must be available to you.
    *This was the amount that was in effect when my wife retired from banking. It may be higher now.

    Ive realized I have PCCSD....yes, the dreaded Post Cruise Cancellation Stress Disorder. My family wants to reschedule our cancelled cruise, and im finding myself reluctant, scared, and I keep thinking "what if....". 
    That being said, were eyeing Oasis (my first Oasis class cruise) or Odyssey for Spring Break '21. This should all be over, and cruising back to normal A YEAR FROM NOW............right?
     
    Right?

    That’s right, there is a US Navy shallows/mine field training area just to the west of a Coco Cay.  I had known about the much larger deep water training area to the south but the minefield was news to me.  
    The facility that support these areas, AUTEC, was used to support the US response to Hurricane Dorian.
     

    How cool would it be to see a sub surfacing while cruising near Coco Cay?

    Just check our Nov 30th and it is still 79.00. I have learned much on this site, Buy when you see it, if price drops cancel and redo. I check the cruise prices and have called and to get a price match, they have done it for us.

    Edited out my knee-jerk frustration to say: I know prices will change as they get closer to final payment, just as they always do. Patience is the key (I'm saying this to myself more than anybody else...).

    I have a neighbor who refuses to believe this is real, tries to get in your space, will not wear a mask, annoying and dangerous. I have COPD and don´t need the aggravation.
