tallnthensome Posted June 27, 2021 #27 Share Posted June 27, 2021 Glad to see they are limiting unvaccinated adults to as many venues as possible. The more the better and hopefully deter them from even wanting to get on the ships. Safety should be number one this early on in the game and its apparent that Royal doesn't want these people aboard ....without coming out and saying it publicly. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wait a few months until restrictions get lifted and/or the kids CAN get vaccinated Because people made plans a year ago and can't easily move them back a couple months? If every adult was vaccinated it wouldn't have much risk either. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No reason not to have Chef's Table for vax. It is just dining, just like everyone has been doing for months now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carnival said no one on oxygen or dialysis can cruise right now. HAL pax was told it's because the medical facility is full up turning it into a lab. If you are on chemo or had a organ transplant I'd not want to go into a mexican port or cruising. Go ahead and hate me. Carnival has been much clearer on their policies. To me rcl has been wishy washy and changing their rules too often. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad they have been clear on those things so people know. Maybe first cruises out they dont feel they have the staff. Idk .. Actually I can understand why no fttf on carnival. IT has to program access to boarding docs so they have access 2 days earlier. Loyalty levels platinum and diamond now open 2 days early to select boarding times. Imo it's about IT for that.

I think the restriction is more because unvaxxed passengers are limited to dining with the people they came on-board and not dining with others. Chef's table by it's nature is dining with new people.

Also, who would want to dish out $$$ for Chef's Table and have to sit next to unvaxxed passengers if you are vaxxed? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I for one have enjoyed CT on many cruises but would not go if they allowed unvaxxed - just as I would not go to the casino if they allowed unvaxxed there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BSocial Posted June 27, 2021 #39 Share Posted June 27, 2021 (edited) The real question is - how long before all these restrictions just go away ? Royal’s Galveston sailings link in the Healthy Sail section originally required vaccinations, for those of legal age, up through October 31 (original planned end of CSO). As Florida’s court battle looked more favorable against the CDC, Royal quietly updated Galveston’s vaccine requirement to August only. What will happen on July 18 if CSO remains as is -the requirements will revert to recommendations only. That frees up cruise lines to welcome all, with no restrictions on board. I don’t see the cruise lines separating vax vs unvaxed after that point. Edited June 27, 2021 by BSocial Spacing 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vswan Posted June 27, 2021 #41 Share Posted June 27, 2021 This is a good start and I'm glad they came out and gave some actual information. For me, as a vacc'd passenger I would not want to be in a specialty restaurant with an unvacc'd or on a shore excursion. This sets me up as a close contact in case there is a covid case among the unvacc'd. I would question doing both of those things - overabundance of caution on my part. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you go out in public now with these same concerns? Research has shown restaurants are not at all a common avenue for covid spread, and that's back when no one was vaccinated 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On land, I'm not tested after a week of being out and about even if asymptomatic, and subject to being quarantined if a positive test. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except for Seattle sailings which had specific requirements for the duration of the Alaska season,, the 2 ships sailing from Florida and Texas only cover the first month of their respective sailings currently (July for Freedom, August for Independence). It will be interesting to see how Royal handles this month to month. Edited June 27, 2021 by BSocial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrispmor Posted June 27, 2021 #49 Share Posted June 27, 2021 Well if you look at Adventure of the seas, there basically are no restrictions except for kids under 12 who have to wear masks inside. Seems like everyone else is having a normal experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
