  1. It's not so bad since most places have a nice breeze all the time
  2. Their FAQ says those who will be in Belize less than 24 hours do not need it. DO I NEED A TRAVEL HEALTH INSURANCE WHEN TRAVELLING TO BELIZE? Effective February 15th, 2022, all Foreign Tourists entering Belize will be required to purchase travel health insurance from a local insurance company. *Does not include QRPs, Belizeans & permanent residents, foreign homeowners, long-stay non-nationals, military personnel, Peace Corps, airline crew and persons in Belize for less than 24 hours are exempted.
  3. Two words: Magnetic hooks These are cheap and small, but will make it a lot easier to hang damp stuff in your room or even hang your lanyard at the door
  4. Correct https://infos-voyage.com/puerto-rico-will-remove-testing-requirements-for-cruise-ship-passengers/
  5. The approach to RoyalUp should be like cooking with a crock pot. Set it and forget it. Then go about your trip preparation with only your original cabin in mind, and let a successful RoyalUp be a bonus.
  6. They should have just cut up the lobster tails and called it crawfish
  7. Are they made from snozzberries?
  8. If you have connecting rooms now, I'd stick with them. RoyalUp is best for a cruise where you only care about one cabin
  9. But will they be able to meet the boosted threshold? The new CSO basically treats the unboosted as unvaccinated.
  10. Yes. Not sure if they've gone back to the bar on a cart or if they're still pouring drinks from the Viking Lounge though.
  11. I wouldn't get wrapped up around that. That same language existed in the old CSO
  12. Some of those new rules are no less ridiculous than the ones from the original CSO. Cruise lines cannot get back to full ships if they opt into the new CSO. If you're a close contact on a ship how long you quarantine isn't dictated by science, but by whether or not there are 95%+ boosted on that cruise. I'd doubt you'll see too many 95% boosted cruises. If any. Specifically, if you're a close contact and there are less than 95% boosted on your cruise (even if you are) you have to quarantine 10 days (if the cruise lasts that long). If there are 95% boosted, you only have to quarantine 5 days. That's just downright stupid and doesn't make any medical sense with the current state of vaccines. If you are symptomatic and seek out testing, only if the ship is 95% boosted can the cruise line give you a antigen test. Otherwise it has to be a PCR test.
  13. More... If you are symptomatic and seek out testing, only if the ship is 95% boosted can the cruise line give you a antigen test. Otherwise it has to be a PCR test.
  14. I hope not. CLIA loses all the leverage they have in saying how disappointed they are with the CDC when cruise lines voluntarily opt into continued extortion by the CDC.

  15. The heat isn't the issue. Our summer high last year was 95. But that was with 20% humidity. Not that 70/80% stuff you Floridians swim through
  16. With multiple launch windows, is a captain expected to honor the exclusion zone for every launch window, even after the rocket launches? Or, worded another way, whose responsibility is it to reaffirm the exclusion zones on a subsequent launch day after an aborted attempt?
  17. That kind of food is great until about an hour after you eat it. Be sure to bring extra Tums with you.
  18. Per the CDC, "fully vaccinated" means when you finished your initial series and merely "up to date" is if you're current on boosters.
  19. Hmm, I wonder if you get free upgrades if you work there. https://plusgrade.bamboohr.com/jobs/view.php?id=94&source=bamboohr
  20. Is there a precedence order when submitting multiple bids? If you bid on 2 upgrades, and theoretically win both, which one "wins?"
  21. I'm on Liberty right after you so maybe my bid will be soon to be decided. Of course there's no availability for the room I bid up on anyway, so I'm not holding out hope
  22. The same way they stop healthy asymptomatic cruisers with any seasonal virus (such as the flu, various coronaviruses, RSV, HMPV, adenoviruses, or Rhinovirus). They don't.
  23. For subject line clarity, there's still masks. Just back to "no masks required in vax areas" rules.
  24. Such a big ship though (capacity-wise) with max occupancy nearly 10k. But they could probably get it for cheap
  25. Masks would be my first protocol to get rid of, but testing healthy people is just bad practice.
