I have yet to figure it out either. I wonder if it tracks cruises you look at, and then alerts you cruise B you are looking at is different than cruise A? I have no idea if that's really the case or not.

What's up with the Cruise Itinerary Notices that are now popping up when you use "Find a Cruise" to do a mock booking ?  They normally only pop up when the itinerary has somehow changed since its original publication but it's popping up on almost all of my cruise itineraries lately.  For the life of me, I cannot find a single change on any of the itineraries from what I originally booked.  The old itins are identical to the supposed "new" itin popping up.  If they have somehow changed the time in port on one or more of the ports of call, it would not show up in that Cruise Itinerary Notice anyway since port times aren't included in those notices.  I'm totally perplexed about what has changed on the itinerary that warrants the pop-up.

Me, seeing that headline and opening this thread to see what's being talked about...

Phew. I'm not alone.

But yeah I would say for the time being the hammocks might be gone. My favorite smoothie spot has these wonderful padded chairs...correction had. They had to be replaced with easily wipe-able chairs.

Omg I thought the same thing....

Okay, I'm just relieved that this is direction this thread is headed in...

I would have thought that means you cant give it to someone else? 

Welcome to the forums, @MiguelB !

We have a similar balcony set-up with a corner balcony JS on Rhapsody Greek Isle cruise, now rebooked for 10/21.

Even though Florida is spiking, it’s the 20-30 age group seeing the most cases. ICU Hospitalizations in my area (Jacksonville) are at a whooping 14. Roughly 35% of cases are asymptomatic. Big spikes in agricultural areas. 
 
The media wants you to believe the narrative that we are all hooked up to ventilators and dying in Florida. That is simply not the case. You have to dig into the numbers to see what’s going on. Our deaths continue to decline. 

I hope to god we never follow what New York does, just my opinion! 
I know we have had a rise in the number of cases in FL, but the death rate has remained steady or has gone down!

SURPRISE THEM!! My kids don't even know we are going on a cruise. So the fact we have balcony rooms now is going to make it better when they find out. I'm even going to surprise them special with the excursions I have for them as they are things they love.

With all of the bad going around I have been able to find a silver lining. I got in contact with my TA and let him know that I wanted to use my FCC for a rebooking in October. He said that it was already there to use and we are all set. We even get to upgrade from interior rooms to balcony rooms! My mom will now get an ocean view balcony to sit on and drink coffee in the mornings. My MIL and son will have a central park balcony. All I have to do now is wait on the cash refunds, which will probably take longer than I prefer. Now to just hang in there and pray that we ALL are back cruising again soon!

This is going to be a common theme in the next few months in relation to everything not just cruiselines. 
Not every business is going to survive! 
As peoples places of work start to either lay off staff, reduce wages or close completely the domino effect is people spending less as their disposable income is reduced,  things such as going to bars, restaurants or even on vacation wont be a priority or a luxury, the reduced business will result in even more bars, restaurants, hotels and even cruiselines closing their doors for good.
The only upside to this is that if people dont have as much money to waste they may stop buying the Miami Herald ?? 

I guess a silver lining is I L&S to a new ship. My job isn't allowing travel or vacation until after Feb 2021. I had a 4 night Mariner Jan 2021 that I planned to turn into a B2B or S2S. So I L&S the Mariner to a Jan 2022 Indy that I plan to turn into a S2S. I have been on Mariner but never on Indy so I get to explore a whole new ship. This also means I might be able to squeeze in another cruise sometime in 2021, when things settle down a bit.

We just booked AFT Corner Balcony for 08/2021 on Deck 7 of Freedom Class with our FCC from 03/2020.   
Went from Interior to almost the biggest balcony on the ship... ?
Love the drop-down ceiling bed for our daughter vs the sofa bed...
That Balcony.... drool....
Trying to decide to show this video to the family or just surprise them...
 

Lets hear some more "bad situation, turned good" stories?!?!?!?!

YAY! I'm happy for you!!

That's great news.    Sometimes everything works out better than you expected.   

OH, OH, I WANNA PLAY!!!!  I like silver linings. I had a sailing booked on Rhapsody, because it was the only ship going to Roatan (the only request my Honduran wife made for the cruise) the week we could go. THE WHOLE WEEK. Crazy.  But, thanks to our dear friend Covid-19, we were cancelled, and rebooked for a sailing in 2021 that goes to Roatan, AND Coco Cay, on HARMONY. This will be my 1st Oasis class!  AAAAAND were going from an ocean view to an ocean balcony!!!!
