Wishing everyone on Rivera’s 7th Feb cruise Happy Cruising. Unfortunately have had to cancel, not Covid related. Managed to transfer to Dec 4th cruise on Marina. So have another 11 months now to get into swimsuit and enjoy browsing excursions.

Enjoy your cruise.

Does nobody drink Iron Bru? !!!🙄

Thanks for the replies.

For information if booked on cruise with Carnival, they are not recognising Astra-Zeneca vaccinations. Read that in one of latest emails from Cruise Critic re Cruise line protocols.

Some confusion arises where WHO approve vaccinations for emergency use ie AstraZeneca but as yet USA FDA not approved AZ for use in USA.

All these regs are playing havoc with travel insurance, British now allowed to fly to USA but USA not accepting us. Where does that leave insurance cancellations.

Hope to see some of you in Feb!

I am a U.K. resident, booked for a cruise with Oceania to Caribbean in Feb 2022. I have just read on Cruise Critic Email that vaccinations from Astra-Zeneca are not acceptable when sailing from Miami. However on contacting Oceania U.K. plus on their website, it states that Astra-Zeneca is accepted, as it is WHO approved (know not yet approved in USA by CDC ? (or that may be FDA). Can anyone clear up this obvious difference in information. Who is correct?

I would be interested to know if anyone feels more should be done by cruisers and cruise companies to ameliorate the effect that cruising has on environmental issues.

I have just been reading an article concerning the Cayman Islands and the intention to dredge the harbour, which requires removing the coral, in order to build a jetty for cruise ships to dock at rather than having to tender to shore.

I wondered what fellow cruisers thought about this?

Apologies if you feel this is not a suitable topic for the forums but I needed to know what fellow cruisers think.

Thanks

From all your posts Larry’s Limos, it will be.

Many thanks for your posts

VMax1700, you are correct, we are staying in hotel at Fort Lauderdale prior to cruising out of that port.

Thiis very useful info thanks, have heard Larry’s Limos mentioned before, sounds very reliable.

Anyone any tips for getting to Fort Lauderdale hotel from Miami airport. Arrive from UK at 21.00 hrs need to get to hotel. Is it better to pre book than pick taxi up at airport.

Thanks for the quick replies, lots of useful info. Think will plan 2 wardrobes, good weather, bad weather and err on side of caution.

Do people still use pool on board when weather cold, note only outdoor pool on Oceania Marina

Hi,

Has anyone experience of vagaries of weather for this cruise, at the end of April, beginning of May. Especially interested in conditions after leaving Charleston. Wondering what to pack for doing walking tours, New York, Boston, and the Canadian Ports.

Tried searching but my search parameters came up with too many general threads on weather.

I would be very grateful for any help, hate being cold and not equipped to enjoy outdoors.

Look forward to replies.

Web site says if arriving by land or sea do not need eTA. Am confused.

I am a UK citizen, do I need an eTA for Canada if arriving by sea on a cruise, Maiami to Montreal. My travel agent says I need one the web says I don’t if arriving by sea. Help please.
