Is the November 14th inauguration date still on? Does anyone know? I have not been able to find any recent information.

It's possible some of the entertainment bailed because they didn't want to risk catching the Coronavirus. I know I would have.

The stock will go up the minute we see light at the end of the tunnel. Right now we are entering the tunnel.

I just chatted with someone who is a travel agent mainly booking cruises and she was laid off Friday. She said the damage is massive. No one is booking. The only people going are those who have already paid in full.

I took a cruise on February 2nd when people were just starting to get a bit nervous. Boy have things changed in the last month. I would never take a cruise now. I have one booked in December and hope the dust settles by then. What a shame for the cruise industry. I wonder how they will survive, and also how many cruise employees will lose their jobs.

I've been a platinum member for years. After spending close to 40K on cruises I can't wait to get my plate of chocolate covered strawberries delivered to my cabin. ( Sarcasm). They should do better.

I avoid cruising in March and April because of Spring Break. Tampa port is wonderful. Not the madhouse that Miami is.

I'm leaving Sunday on a cruise out of Tampa and am not worried, however as time goes by and it gets worse I might get nervous. Everyone cruising soon should expect this email.

It will be my fourth time on the ship. It's my favorite because of the kooky decor. And I live an hour south of Tampa and that makes everything so easy.

3. Leaving on the Legend on Superbowl Sunday. Should be a fun experience.

That's a joke. I better not see that in February on the Legend.

Sounds like fun and an exciting way to start the cruise.

I'll be on it in February for the fourth cruise. I like watching everyone hold their breath when the ship goes under the Skyway Bridge. It looks like they clear it by inches.

I'll be on the Legend February 2nd, 2020, Super Bowl Sunday. Do they do anything special for that day and where can I view the game on the ship besides my cabin and the sports bar? Also the ship seems to be packed. Is that the reason why?
