I did CLIA's. I'll do this one, too. I'm on several other cruise lines email lists and if they contact me, I'll do it for them, too! I'm in favor of whatever gets the CDC's mother bleeping attention! More so, I'm in favor of whatever gets the attention of whomever has any oversight on on the CDC. I want them to have to answer to some higher authority as to why an entire industry is figuratively screaming at them and one state (one so far, that is) has filed a lawsuit against them. UPDATE: Rats, the email just takes us back to the CLIA site that I already visited/took action at. Anyone wanna join in front of the CDC office with a bullhorn?

GOOD! The CDC needs to be called out on their double standard BS! They're still holding on to the the idea of outbreaks similar to what happened on Diamond Princess OVER A YEAR AGO and paying no mind to the FACTS that we now have testing, health checks, mitigation measures, numerous other protocols, treatments, and, oh yeah, VACCINES!

Folsom of the Seas? Celebrity Alcatraz? Carnival Brig? Norwegian Bastille?

Little known fact: Koi fish travel in groups of four for safety. If a predator attacks, A, B, & C Koi can escape because the predator always goes after the D Koi.

Wow! She's got talent, for sure! Good luck to her in the art competition.

Based on what has been offered on the previously cancelled cruises, it is most likely. You may have to opt in for it, though. This was my experience with my cancelled January '21 cruise.

I'm already well aware of this. The meme I posted is to illustrate my anticipation of the CDC's response, or more likely, anticipated lack of response.

"Shortly". "Any day". How are we supposed to believe anything the CDC has to say anymore?

I was gonna post another joke about this here, but, that ship has sailed.

@Traveler & @twangster, STOP TRYING TO "HELP" THE CDC!

I saw this topic title and fully expected it to be an April Fools joke! ?

https://www.royalcaribbean.com/cruise-activities/archery I know it's April 1st, but, it appears that this is a real thing, unless @PPPJJ-GCVAB somehow convinced RC to be in on the joke! ?

Captain Kate's YT channel is really entertaining. It provides a lot of interesting info about working/living/operating a cruise ship. Plus, there's several appearances by her sea-faring cat, "Bug Naked"! ? If you're claustrophobic at all, you should probably avoid the Azipod video where she and another crewmember crawl inside it (?) for servicing.

Morbo is the most trusted and feared name in news!

Unfortunately, I only have one booked at a time. (Currently, Odyssey on January 29, 2022) I would like to think that if I lived much closer to a port (or ports), I would take advantage of short sailings for long weekend getaways. With having to fly (or drive a LONG way) it's just too time and/or cost prohibitive.

A friend of mine is always complaining about his car from Sweden. I'm tired of his Saab stories.

I'm not sure about the answer to your question, but, I do know that they've gotten better at issuing FCCs. (Unfortunately, a year of cancellations has made them good at it ?) From the time of cancellation (December 2) to the issuing our FCCs (January 8) was 37 days.

I second this. Even with only one cruise booked at a time, I've taken to keeping records of every "Cruise Vacation Receipt" with notes of the changes each time I get something changed or have the cruise re-priced. I'm not sure why you are not getting these. Every time I have called RCI's customer service reps, they have sent me an email regarding my changes while I am still on the phone with them to review while I am STILL on the phone with them. I can understand your frustration completely. I know this doesn't help, but, I have certainly found some CS reps to be more able and helpful than others.

This only works for ships painted orange with "01" painted on the side.
