    Same to all the above here in Maryland.
    I can't help but wonder if the liquor stores staying open (here, they're doing online/call-in order with curbside pickup) are a reaction to all the kids being home from school. ? ?

    So far, Gov. Hogan of Maryland has stopped short of a shelter-in-place order, but I can't help but think (and as someone in the world of emergency management, kinda hope) that it's coming soon enough. More non-essential businesses were closed today, and of course, there's still no word on when the Cruise Maryland Terminal will re-open. I'm definitely staring down RCCL over my June cruise to Canada; I've got a July itinerary booked, too...but I really don't want to go ahead and cancel the June one because I'm inside final payment and I'd rather Royal blink first and I get the better deal.
    We cruisers are a stubborn bunch!

    I'm hoping to get a clear answer on Adventure going TO New England/Canada on June 4 when y'all get back. Everything seems to be pointing to the notion that they'll point their cruises south for the time being -- and I'm the opposite of you -- I don't wanna go that way...it's not what I paid or booked for, so I get you not wanting to go north! ?

    That's certainly one way to get me to avoid eating up all the stay-in-place supplies. ?

    In Denver they initially ruled liquor stores must close.  Within minutes long lines formed and the city was inundated with complaints.  Within hours they exempted liquor stores so they could stay open.  
     
    No lottery sales at liquor stores here.

    Well as a Canadian I hope to be joined by many Americans (and other world travellers!) sailing from Vancouver on Serenade August 30!! 
    Clearly both the US and Canada are going to need tourist dollars when this is over. The negative commenters are being impractical. We welcome you once the borders open!

    You know, I'm honestly a bit concerned that even if this restriction is lifted on July 1, Canadians are not exactly going to be welcoming of visitors from other lands. I posted on Facebook that I was sad that I wouldn't be able to visit Canada at the moment because of the restrictions, but I was looking forward to doing so in the future (via a cruise of some form), and I was nearly tarred and feathered, at least virtually. ?

    My college is currently putting a move-out plan in place -- students' stuff is still in their dorms despite no students allowed on campus for 2 weeks now -- and the college will be refunding a pro-rated amount of room/board. Tuition, no...because we're all still doing distance learning, so our educations are continuing.

    Ummm? NO!!
    That looks like one of those recipes from a vintage cookbook from the 50's or 60's. Like bananas wrapped in ham and baked with a hollandaise sauce. Don't laugh. I actually saw that in one! Or the tuna gelatin molds!

    My always-helpful TA (Sharla @ MEI) notified me this morning that as of today (3/26), my cruise on June 4 aboard Adventure going to/from Cape Liberty and stopping in the Canadian ports of St. John and Halifax has not been canceled. Apparently, RCCL's cancellation is currently only impacting Alaska sailings and Canada sailings originating in/departing from Canadian ports.
    Wait-mode continues to be engaged.

    Substitute hot dogs with chorizo sausage and smother with a hearty meat sauce. I'd eat that.

    I put a deposit down last weekend on a replacement cruise in anticipation of these new cancellations. Already transferred it to Sharla at MEI. I had a few questions regarding the 125% FCC and 125% OBC for cruise planner purchases and Sharla got back to me within an hour. 
    Great service! Have been very happy with MEI and Sharla.

    I know they're going through a lot -- and I'm not taking aim at those folks on the front lines...I know they're only as good as the information they're being given. I just wish their corporate communications team would get on the same page, lay things out clearly and concisely, and make sure that those front-line customer-service folks know what's going on. Yes, this situation is fluid...but when your decisions come across as being made willy-nilly and without consistency, it's setting a bad precedent.
    At this point, I don't care if they cancel my cruises. They can go ahead. I just want everybody to be safe and well, and for them to do whatever it takes for that. It just feels like this latest decision has been made haphazardly and without any real coordination or clarity -- and that's not good for anyone. ?
