LizzyBee23 Posted October 20, 2021 Report Share Posted October 20, 2021 Short of a "cruise" to the moon, I'm not sure the "once in a lifetime" will live up to expectations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vacation Crazy Posted October 20, 2021 Report Share Posted October 20, 2021 How about officially announcing pre-cruise testing requirements for November sailings?!?!

Ampurp85 Posted October 20, 2021 Report Share Posted October 20, 2021 I knew it was going to be itinerary based, world cruise is meh but technically a once in a lifetime thing for most people. This is undoable for most people as who hast 60k and 8 months of time off of work? It looks like you will be able to try to book certain legs based on @Matt blog post. cruisellama, bryresangel and sammy79 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpeedNoodles Posted October 20, 2021 Report Share Posted October 20, 2021 There definitely seems to be a market for this kind of cruise. They sell out very quickly on other lines. I'm just not that market at this time. Sharla 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisellama Posted October 20, 2021 Report Share Posted October 20, 2021 World cruise....hmm....not new, other lines have had them for years. On the positive side, good way to collect lots of C&A points, and adds competition to the market. On the negative - encumbers a ship on a single voyage for a long time, as much as I'd like to take one, not personally practical in the foreseeable future for us.
