More good news on the vaccine front
Floski replied to JLMoran's topic in Royal Caribbean News and Rumors
This is as good a thread as any for me to ask this question. With the vaccine being more plentiful and effective, it doesn't seem to me too far-fetched to think that the workers in the "tourist area" part of most ports can't be vaccinated, allowing passengers to at least be able to walk around somewhere off ship. We are hitting Falmouth in August and I love that separated area - lots of things to do. Am I pipe-dreaming? I know there are probably at least 1000 workers who are there, but would it be that difficult to manage/maintain? I don't mind staying onboard, but really want to get off for a little. Not much into ship-sponsored excursions. -
Double Points - Crown and Anchor - Away?

Hmmmmm.....if I work this right, I'll be copper level in no time!!! -
Yesterday I was out drinking some fab Charleston craft beer, when I met up with 2 ladies who work with Norwegian. After the "I'm loyal to Royal" and then the frowns, I told them that I was totally happy with Royal and have no desire to cruise any other line (of course, we all agreed on Carnival). They told me that I was missing out and that NCL was a great line and much cheaper than RC. When I mentioned that my next cruise was in 19 weeks, aka 01 Aug, they both agreed that "that sailing will never happen". They both suggested I re-book, regardless which line I re-up for. I said "why don't y'all just let me go grab a big stick and y'all can beat me to death?". I really need this cruise. One of them said that she would even offer me her "friends and family" discount on NCL, so I went over last night and tried to peruse their sight. It might as well have been another language, as I had no idea what I was doing. All I know is that I want to travel out of Port Canaveral, but there were only 5 cruises from there. What do y'all think? If you've been on Norwegian (Escape appears to be the only PC option), do you think it's a decent alternative? I'm not sure what kind of discount I'll get. I don't mind trying, but it better be awfully enticing to make me not take a Royal ship.

Miami-Dade Mayor requesting meeting with CDC

I thought one of my Sicilian cousins had joined the group - "washa you hands, washa you face!" ? -
No cruising for Canadians this summer?
Floski replied to Lovetocruise2002's topic in Royal Caribbean News and Rumors
I just don't understand. Now, granted I'm an ignorant American, but why is the Canadian government being so tough? It's not like y'all are a third world country, so why isn't everyone getting vaccinated?? I hate it for you guys; seems like you've been "captive" for so long. Hey - that pipeline ain't being used, so y'all should just tunnel to it! Stay strong -
Nothing for my 8/1/21 cruise.

Just grabbed Harmony of the Seas for Dec 18, 2022 - we missed going to Costa Maya, Roatan, and Cozumel last November, so I'm stoked about this!! AND I got my room on Deck 14 near the entrance to the Solarium. I'm not sure how thrilled the wife is, but I'm happy!

Four cruises, four stays at the Radison. It's super convenient, and we like the layout. Excellent pool and pool bar. We park for the week, take the shuttle to and from the port.

7-Night + Long Caribbean 2022-2023
Floski replied to mattymay's topic in Royal Caribbean News and Rumors
There aren't many going to Mexico/Honduras from Port Canaveral, either. So frustrating, because Falmouth just isn't a great destination. -
7-Night + Long Caribbean 2022-2023
Floski replied to mattymay's topic in Royal Caribbean News and Rumors
Wow! That's gonna be a super expensive 6-night cruise.... -
I'm looking at the one cruise to Mexico/Honduras in the next two years from Port Canaveral; a 6 nighter on Harmony....can anyone tell me if there is a hallway access door on the starboard side like the one here on deck 14? There isn't an open room anywhere near the port door, but a couple on the opposite hallway. I feel like I've asked this before, but can't remember ?
-
That is still all there is. My wife is pretty uncertain about sailing the week before Christmas. Not to mention, I really want 7 or more nights! Call me greedy.

The problem is going to be whether we're allowed to go into port and grab a taxi. We've been to St Thomas twice and both times just grabbed an open air like DDaley shows ^. It's easy and the good ones will stop on the side of the road to show you interesting things (like bay trees (just smell the spaghetti)). My guy Timothy up at Mountain Top:

dammitman Nothing going to Roatan/Costa Maya/Coz from Port Canaveral in 2022. I told my wife I was trying to book a cruise for 2022 and she just gave me that look and said "we already have 2!". Looking for a divorce lawyer as we speak.
-
I've been so optimistic for so long....we're scheduled for 8/1 on Allure and I may just literally die if it gets cancelled. One thing that I'm concerned about is whether we will be able to go into port on our own. I'm doubtful, but hoping that at least in the closed-off area we'll be able to.

And my depression keeps on sinking...

I figured either you or @JLMoran would be in the market; looks like I picked the right dude....errr, I mean bot!
-
Holding my masked breath that we'll be on Allure on Aug 1. I'm so tired of yelling at animals...I need this as bad as Twangster needs a new camera lens!

Wait - do "we" have to pay to enter a suite? Can I charge it to my SeaPass?
