Gay RCCL & Russia

[RICHARD@SEA]

A friend just emailed an itin on an RCCL sailing to ST Petersburg in 2024....IMO - is RCCL kidding me....

 

with Russia's long standing attitude about the gay community & its current war against UKRAINE...why would anyone in their right mind go to Russia...for any reason>>>

 

RCCL *****????

Wow. That's insane. I have a feeling that ship isn't going to be filling up!

Agree.  Will be a cold day in hell before I would walk on Russian soil.

Same here. I recall that the Atlantis Baltic cruise I was on changed its itinerary when Russia announced its new anti-LGBTQ laws. Obviously, RCCL doesn't care enough about the current situation to take a stand. Or, maybe this is them taking a stand? Scary thought...

I have a feeling this is RCCL "hoping" the Ukraine war is over by 2024 and hedging their bets. It's a lot easier to cancel an itinerary later than to book with short notice. Having said that I would avoid ANY Russia travel on any ship or tour EVER!!! One wrong look and you are in prison for life!
