Went through this also. As long as one of the original names is on the reservation no issue changing one. In our case, it was late - so a no show at the terminal, and my son had the room solo. (Of course we paid for the double occupancy)

We did the Harley rental in Aruba. We were the only couple to have a reservation on that day, so had a personal tour with our guide. We saw pretty much the whole island. and visited a nice resort near baby beach. If you ride motorcycles - its a great experience.

Curious if a non-US port on a ship's itinerary required a passenger record of vaccination status to stop, and the line uses the port requirement to flow the requirement to its embarkation requirement. Its no longer the line's requirement, but a requirement from a non-US gov't. State could say, remove from itinerary if you want to sail from here (probably challengeable). More hypothetical non-sense.

We'll need to continue to push through these early, uncertain itineraries. I think they're placeholders in place to enable for the restart (if all the ducks get lined up). Continues to be a moving target as the "do able" becomes "less doable" as reality is realized.

Full day Vatican and full tour of ancient Pompeii. The guides were excellent.

There is a "gyration" that allows compliance with the cruise line and state desires. But it's absolutely ridiculous mental gymnastics.

What did the vertebrae say when returning from vacation? I'm back!

Which is why I continue to believe the Alaskan season also will be pushed so far right as to be insignificant. Could see it start and end in Sept.

It would need to show up for the cruises they know will cancel prior to restart.

Where Do Sheep Go For Vacation The Baahamas

What do you call an Australian visiting England on vacation? Returning to the scene of the crime.

For Christmas, I bought my wife a world map and gave her a dart. I told her to throw it and wherever it lands, we will go on vacation after this pandemic is over. Turns out we are spending two weeks behind the fridge.

This late test cruise approval is why I'm still skeptical about a useful Alaskan season. Feels like these are going to be drawn out through the summer. Carnival announced test cruising from Galveston.

If that's the case, the story should be, "They were isolated and evacuated without further exposure, mitigation process worked." (Real life test cruise just like in Singapore)

At least Palma is a nice place to get dropped off. Maybe a false positive? They're known to happen.

I forgot my coffee this morning so I'm gonna drive on the rumble strips along the side of the road all the way to work just to be safe.

With the rise of self-driving vehicles, it's only a matter of time before we get a country song where a guy's truck leaves him too.

Particularly with the remainder of 2021, there's an appearance chaos as itineraries are cancelled re-planned, moved. We still don't have a handle on gov't help. It looks like "make it up as we go along " until the dust settles. I sure the lines are just as frustrated as they try to build itineraries based upon the "rules of the day". Unfortunately the guests are the flee at the end of the dogs tail.

I understand why - the desire to mitigate risk as much as possible just to move forward. I don't like gov't mandates, but I would not disagree it is a valid additional risk mitigation action (looks good). Then you build off the success and requirements will hopefully back off.

If you're fully vaccinated, that requirement is a bridge too far for me. I would sail from locations that honor the vaccination status. My bookings start in Nov '21, and I hope things are a little more sane by then.

And now Summit will start sailing from Alaska on July 23rd with 7-day itineraries from Seattle. Refreshing news - please no more false starts.

Until we start sailing - we continue our voyages in the sea of speculation.

I was incorrect. After checking Azamara website , FAQs, points collected on Azamara are still transferred to Celebrity, and vice versa. And Royal/Azamara status are still honored until further notice. Further verified by my TA.

I've experienced a loss of a link to Air2Sea. Only seeing a phone option. I prefer surveying options before I speak with an agent. I was able to access a link from the Azamara site which allowed me to look for on-line air quotes for Royal, X, and Azamara.

The CDC can still service as firewall for someone's agenda. Let the legislative and executive branch approve, but the "scientists" keep it from happening. Politicians then hide behind the bureaucrats and say, "We did everything we could to save AK jobs, but the scientist don't think its safe..." Just being cynical.
