Cruising With JT Posted December 10, 2021 Report Share Posted December 10, 2021 Does anyone else think they will replace Labadee with CocoCay like they did for Odyssey in November? I hope so! 2 visits to CocoCay would be epic in a week! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard rumor that the CDC is not going to extend the Conditional Sail Order. If that is the case I am going to go out on a limb and guess that we should be pretty good. I could be wrong though and we probably won't know for sure until January 15. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am hoping all will go well with this inaugural. Ideally, I would like for everyone to enjoy the full experience - shows, shore excursions, onboard activities, etc. But during these uncertain times, I’m ready for anything being canceled, except for the cruise itself. I’d find ways to enjoy 7 nights (and days) at sea, if it comes to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If i get to go out on ports great and I still may choose to stay on board on certain ones who knows. I just hope that maybe with the fast spread that this round will be about over by the time March comes so we can have a small feel of normalcy for a week. Everywhere I go on land you don't know vaccination statuses of the people around you. I feel I'm more "in danger" here than I will be on the cruise. Simply my opinion though. No matter what gets cancelled I can deal with. I have to respect what Royal does if I want to sail with them as they probably have a reason to do what they are doing.

PG Cruiser Posted January 7 Report Share Posted January 7 If this inaugural is cancelled and rescheduled, will our reservations be moved to the new date or will it be a mad scramble for reservations for everyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to say mad scramble but if it's canceled when they do sail that date is probably already on sale. If it's canceled for 3 weeks then whoever is booked 4 weeks out will now be on the inaugural sailing. Can't see them rescheduling everyone for the "new" inaugural sailing. Just need to pay close attention next month to Matt's news letters and blog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be awesome. Informal group cruise. Maybe do a refundable booking now since final payment isn't due till February.

UkeT3 Posted January 12 Report Share Posted January 12 Hi all. Just found this roll call. So happy to say the Mrs and I are on this cruise so we can't wait.

Just need to pay close attention next month to Matt's news letters and blog. Another indication to watch is if/when the ship actually leaves Europe. I would imagine if it hasn't left by the end of the first week in February, this cruise likely won't happen. I think it will need to do a test cruise (don't know for sure but...) and then the week or so to get over here from Europe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only other thing I can think of is if they want to do a publicity short cruise for some hype before the actual first paid sailing.

twangster Posted January 13 Report Share Posted January 13 I was checking my future cruises today and noted my cabin for this sailing was listed as a balcony. I figured it was a tech glitch since I had booked an interior. Nope! I've been moved and upgraded at no cost to an Ocean View Balcony!

Jill Posted January 18 Report Share Posted January 18 59 minutes ago, PG Cruiser said: 45 days to go... check-in is still unavailable... I’m stalking this group! I’m on the 18th and tapping my fingers waiting for the magical “check in is open” to appear. Crew is beginning to arrive. A mom posted in a Facebook group that her daughter has left Australia to join the ship in France. Last I read was she’s (Wonder) supposed to leave France mid February to head this way.

I have literally been checking every morning and evening on the app and online. Never been on an Oasis class ship so I am super pumped to go. I am excited as well to see so many people on forums that have answered questions going as well so maybe I can put a face with a name. twangster 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
