Havana to become a homeport for the Braemar
kathy49 replied to Oulton Jim's topic in Fred. Olsen Cruise Line
I get all of that about t the big spending Americans who eat/drink/tip and see them as I travel and in fact am one...however I am speaking of right now where one state has more cases per day than most entire countries...as long as Covid 19 is around doubt we will be welcome $$ or not. -

Most countries do not want US.....those that do will probably change that too....I would not expect to see any cruise ships that are frequented by US passengers to be operating as so very ports will let them in and that could be well into 2021. -

why do people say US Citizens cannot go to Cuba. Covid has certainly stopped all from visiting and US will probably be one of the last to return given our situation....but prior to Covid US tourists were visiting...just not on cruise ships. This idea may be good sometime in the future but cruising in general is not going to return soon let alone from Cuba. I would not get too excited about this one! -
not sure but it was bad. "flying dutchman" strange to say the least but guess this experience has different impacts on different people and you are so glad to have survived it.

I guess there are some cruisers that just cannot accept that this all happened. if you watch this program which I considered well done and frankly pretty fair to cruises in general...the Taiwan stop where they are all sitting in the hall watching some program and walking around with most locals in masks and having their temps taken....get back on the ship...to me that could have been the super spreader right there. I think Princess has some liability in even letting them get off the ship at that point...but it will all be sorted out in thousands of lawsuits big and small. I saw that Taiwan v

CNBC: Carnival to restart Cruises in phases August 1st
kathy49 replied to kwokpot's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
I think people willing to invest and sail this summer need to be prepared for a cruise to nowhere. Time will tell. -
Princess new health guidelines..will X follow suit!
kathy49 replied to hcat's topic in Celebrity Cruises
That same concern to avoid legal liability and shift the burden is still front and center in the boardrooms....they will try to go about it in a different less obvious way. Clearly this was not thought out carefully as the resulting cancellations from their faithful client base could have been anticipated. Stay tuned...they have clearly indicated "more to follow". -
yes that is what I was referring to above the "mixed signals"...first it is over 70 then for anyone...then it is there...then it is not there...all of that is in my estimation a PR disaster. It has gotten to the point with cruises and the media in general (Covid 19) that people over 70 are toxic. Those same 70 somethings are the bread and butter of most cruise lines and upscale tour operators.
