FYI! 
Entertainment just opened tonight in the Cruise Planner for our sailing!
 

Oh no-  I’m sorry for you. The rug was pulled out from under our 1/8 Symphony voyage as well. So I know how you feel. 

They just canceled our January 22nd Independence of the Seas. 😞  

We just landed in MIA for our Symphony Jan 8 sailing and received the cancellation email while waiting for our bags.  On the phone with Air2Sea now trying to find a way back home. Fun times.

Same situation with the airlines.

I sailed last month and used a CVS rapid test.   Had no problems!

Could the cruise lines survive financially if they had to shut down again?  If CDC does try to shut them down I do believe that act would be the final push for people to take a major stand on all the stupidity of the last year.  I’m thinking that CDC will not do a major shut down because, hopefully, they learned from the government saying get vaccinated or lose your job.  They thought that would push everyone to get vaccinated, when in reality, nurses and assistant care givers quit instead of getting vaccinated. Now we have a shortage, which is the reason hospitals are at their limit.  Not due to space availability but staff shortages.  

The Casino is SO much better without the smoke! Sorry for the nicotine crowd.  I hope it is a permanent change. Not a smoker, but used to do cigars. However, I hope the mask thingy goes away soon. 

It's unfortunate the media is not reporting that those who do get it are having mild symptoms. They would have you think the ship is full of severely sick people walking about. Most have no idea they have it until they get off the ship. Eventually this will not be a huge media event. Just let us enjoy our vacations. 

and on all ships!
 

Based on an actuary table, all dealers gained, on average, 7.3 hours of life expectancy due to temporary smoking ban.

So I recently got off Mariner of the Seas on Nov 30th and was about 3 hours into the drive home when I realized that I did not have my wallet on me. While cruising I always leave my wallet in the safe and only take the cash or credit cards that I need onshore and my passport. So on debarkation morning wearing athletic shorts it fell out of my pocket in the chair in the main dining room. This was the first time I had been separated from my wallet in at least 15 years and so I was thoroughly panicked. My wife did a quick search for a Royal Caribbean lost and found and there is an email process that you go through and give them all of the details about the item and the ship and so forth.
Being the pessimist that I am I thought it was a fools errand but what the heck. 
Thankfully for Mobile Apps and being able to turn off all of my cards immediately, and that I jokingly had given my Wife all of the cash from my casino trips telling her that she would get it from me one way or another so might as well hand it over. I was only really out the actual wallet.
2 Days post cruise and I received an email last night from Royal that the wallet has been found and it will be returned to me once the ship returns to port and they are able to process it, all I had to do was pay for shipping.
So if you ever forget/lose something this might be worth a try.
