CJS2766 Posted March 12, 2021 Report Posted March 12, 2021 While I am trying to remain hopeful the May cancellations while "maybe" expected, still are very depressing. I am doing everything possible to stay optimistic. My next cruise is on the Symphony on Oct 16. I figure, just for fun obviously, what is your guess for the first RC sailing?? List your best guess with Month and date! Will it be sometime in 2021? 2022?? My guess? 1st week in September 2021. Who's next!!!! cruisellama 1 Quote
AlmondFarmer Posted March 12, 2021 Report Posted March 12, 2021 If using “Price is Right” rules (going past/over disqualifies) my guess for U.S. departure is July 1. CJS2766, cruisellama, DD474 and 3 others 4 2 Quote

nhilding10 Posted March 12, 2021 Report Posted March 12, 2021 This will be fun to look back on and see who "got it", strictly for fun! Best guess says we still need all of the proper clearances, test cruises, adjustment period, final go-ahead....let's say Sunday, August 22nd. I mean, why not? DD474 and dee02554 2 Quote

Psycho and Barb Posted March 12, 2021 Report Posted March 12, 2021 My Guess would be 27 June and with only vaccinated people. DD474 1 Quote

If we see crew movements and port turn-ons in May, July makes sense. It will only be a couple of ships, we're looking at a year for full fleets after start. So cabin supply will be tight for that period of time. DD474 1 Quote

Kayleigh Posted March 12, 2021 Report Posted March 12, 2021 After what Biden said last night (hopeful all Americans will have access to the vaccine by May 1), I'm guessing August 1. Fingers crossed! Quote

MaryCS62 Posted March 12, 2021 Report Posted March 12, 2021 I'm cautiously optimistic that we will be able to cruise on Anthem Jan 2021 -- but it's 11 days, so not sure it will happen. 3 of 4 will be vaccinated by the end of March, just waiting on my 24 year old to get her vaccine Quote
Vancity Cruiser Posted March 12, 2021 Report Posted March 12, 2021 August 1st. All passengers vaccinated. Short cruises to private island destinations only. Quote
Jill Posted March 12, 2021 Report Posted March 12, 2021 As long as it’s before October 23, I’m good! Seriously I’m thinking July 2 or September 3. Both are the first Fridays of the month. Ready for that first 3 night cruise! DD474 1 Quote
smokeybandit Posted March 12, 2021 Report Posted March 12, 2021 This could be good news. Gottlieb has been a covid pessimist and he's also the co-chair of the RC Healthy Sail panel Quote

sk8erguy1978 Posted March 12, 2021 Report Posted March 12, 2021 My guess is September 1st with 1, maybe 2 ships. Still pessimistic about my September 2021 sailing on Oasis will go. Quote
steverk Posted March 12, 2021 Report Posted March 12, 2021 If it doesn't happen by August 1, then it will be November when the CSO expires. Quote
CJS2766 Posted March 12, 2021 Author Report Posted March 12, 2021 Another question then?? Will we have any 7 night or longer cruise in 2021 or will we have to wait until 2022 for those? If that happens, I guess my 7 night this Oct will go bye bye!!! DO you think that it will be 3 days cruising only?? I also should have asked, if cruising does resume lets say by September, will ports be closed or will it be RC excusrions only?? I know I know, so nay questions!!!! RWDW1204 1 Quote

That's important for your second question. As always, these are just guesses! Quote
Curt From Canada Posted March 12, 2021 Report Posted March 12, 2021 My guess is December 1, 2020. I am not 100% certain, but I think a Quantum Class ship sailing from a part of the world that is impossible for me to get to. Sorry, I know everyone is upset (me too), but it is Friday afternoon and I am feeling "punchy". 90 minutes to Martini Time! Curt from Canada Quote

DO you think that it will be 3 days cruising only?? I have a B2B on Allure starting October 17th. They are two 7-day cruises for a total of 14 days. I'm thinking one of those will go but I might cancel the other one if Allure starts on October 1st. Otherwise, I think there will be some cruise departing the US by August 1st. I think Allure has a good chance of starting sooner rather than later because the stops are Nassau and the private islands mostly. I'm hoping she starts by July 1st so I can evaluate things before the final payment date. I will say July 15th .... final answer. Quote

MicDay Posted March 12, 2021 Report Posted March 12, 2021 My guess is Sept 3rd too Will it be the complete fleet, yes, I've decide to look at the cup as half full Quote
jticarruthers Posted March 13, 2021 Report Posted March 13, 2021 Based on what I think to be reasonable given vaccine rollouts, etc. - July 2nd. Based on the aspirational US goal of being able to host outdoor BBQ's by July 4th - Never. Quote
WannaCruise Posted March 13, 2021 Report Posted March 13, 2021 No idea...but if I were to guess, then I'd say late 2021 with a vaccine as a requirement. But it not only depends on Royal, but on the ports as well and how the world is doing. Baked Alaska 1 Quote
gtgtgt Posted March 13, 2021 Report Posted March 13, 2021 Agree with many others on September 1 -- going to get some 3 and 4-night sailings for Labor Day weekend Quote
em.down.the.rabbit.hole Posted March 13, 2021 Report Posted March 13, 2021 I think July 24th 2021 to coincide with UK school summer holidays onboard Anthem Quote
Mike.s Posted March 13, 2021 Report Posted March 13, 2021 Early August, UK cruises start, end of August short cruises to Co Co Cay, 2022, normality returns, hopefully. em.down.the.rabbit.hole 1 Quote
