Anyone on Seashore this week? 1/15/22

[barb in ga]

We had to cancel and reschedule, just want to see how things are going on this sailing.

Interested as well. We didn't cancel we will sail March 5th.

We are not canceling our cruise in a few weeks on the Seashore, but are also very curious to know if MSC is 'forcing' ALL passengers to retest while on board in order to visit any port whether passengers decide to stay on board or not.

We're on the Seashore for the 22nd to 29th and would love to hear the latest as well! If no one responds then we'll let you all know how the next sailing goes.

Following.  We're sailing in April.  Hoping for a fairly empty ship.  😉

Very interested in hearing your report. We sail Feb. 26th and can't wait to hear from you. We are still debating on whether or not to go.

I don't sail until April, but I'll happily take the "forced" test any time they wish to administer it, especially if it shows there are positive cases.  We need to care about those people in the ports, not just ourselves.

We are sailing on her on the 4th of July. We would like to hear about her, too.

Our time is almost here. We fly out in less than two days and three days from now we'll be on the ship. We'll be anxious until we've both got our COVID test results. We'll be doing them first thing tomorrow morning using the home BINAX kits. Keep your fingers crossed for us!

Happy Sailing Tomorrow! Hope all goes well and you have a great time! Can't wait to hear back from you! We are waiting until we hear about your trip until we decide whether to cancel or not.

Looking forward to hearing about your experience on the Seashore. Especially how many passengers are onboard.🥂😊

Disappointed to lose an evening at Ocean Cay but just grateful to have made it on the ship and time to enjoy that cruise life!!!

Glad to hear you made it on the ship.  Sad to hear about the few that did not.  That is what bothers me! Hoping they quit testing at the port soon! Can't wait to hear more from you!

Stop testing at port?  LOL

Allow more to cruise in quarantine?

Stay Safe!

Editing my response to you so as to act like an adult. I just think that we should act like England is getting ready to and stop all of this testing and mandates.  That is the only way we will ever move forward.

 

Happy Cruising

Everyone has an opinion. 

I'm not an MD. It's a shame that with all the advise people give,  C19 is not gone.

How many passengers made it on the ship?

[karmamule]

I don’t know exact number yet but it is very sparse.

 

 We did stop at Ocean Cay today, staying until 10pm. We had a cabana and enjoyed our time even though it was cloudy. The water and air were the same temperature! (Low 70s)

 

 So far our food in the Yacht Club has been delicious (the lasagnette last night was especially yummy) Morning breakfast buffet was meh but when we stopped by the main buffet for some pizza last night it was as delicious as we remembered it.

 

Staff has been way more outgoing and friendly than we’re used to from past trips. All the passengers seem more outgoing too so probably due to the low passenger count.

 

 Two sea days next 😁

 

 

[karmamule]

So we were told there are barely over 1000 passengers in our sailing and about 110 people in the yacht club (which could normally hold over 300). It is indeed a very quiet cruise but surprisingly social despite that. We’re having a great time so far.

We’re glad to experience this as it’s probably going to be a fleeting experience that won’t happen again once things get closer to normal. We’ll use the next two sea days for specialty dining and exploring the ship more.

Hi there, 

How's your cruise going? When you have time to share of course. I'm counting down to boarding Saturday!

Thanks!
