    Full Vaccination Required Ages 5+ Starting 1/13/22

    We cancelled 2 cruises for 2022 a couple of weeks ago because I figured this was the direction they were going. Got my deposit money back and don’t plan on giving it back to DCL anytime soon. Mandates, testing, and ever changing rules make a cruise vacation undesirable to my family. For the...

    Has anyone gotten or planning on getting the vaccine solely because of cruising?

    I haven’t gotten the vaccine and honestly don’t know if I am. We have had this discussion as a family because we have a cruise booked for May 2022. This cruise has already been rescheduled 2x and we want to go. BUT I am not getting the vaccine just to cruise. If it is needed and I haven’t gotten...

    Government of Canada announces one-year ban for pleasure craft and cruise vessels

    I had to cancel an excursion I had with a company in Skagway for this May. She told me that most port businesses will survive until 2022, but if cruise ships don’t return in 2022, most will be go out of business. We are considering just traveling to Alaska by plane and giving up on cruising for...

    Anyone else given up?

    I'm giving our cruise one more chance. Original booking was August 2020 Alaska cruise. Rebooked to May 2021, which I cancelled due to not knowing what that cruise would even look like should it happen. We booked 8 nights at Disney World instead for early June 2021. When the 2022 Alaska cruises...

    March 2021 Cruises Heading Towards Cancellation

    I cancelled my May 2021 Alaska cruise about a month ago. This was my 2nd cancellation, as we were supposed to go on an August Alaska cruise in 2020. The CM tried to convince me to keep the reservation, saying she thought this cruise would sail and if I chose later to cancel, I could always use...

    How do you feel about...

    Absolutely. The only thing that would stop me is the restrictions on board. My husband couldn't stop working because of Covid. In fact, he has had to work more hours because of protests and riots. I have been back to work in the office since June. Both of my sons are attending college and...

    Anyway to pay to get to book earlier?

    That's funny. I'm an accountant and my husband was the one who kept pushing for DVC. I finally gave in, and I don't regret the purchase. Our kids are now away at college, and they are worried we will go without them.

    Anyway to pay to get to book earlier?

    I also believe that if you are a DVC member, your cruise booking opens the same day as Silver Castaway Club.

    How far in advance and which Vancouver hotel

    I booked the Fairmont Waterfront in May 2020 for May 15-16, 2021. It is not a prepay, nor was a deposit due, and I can cancel without penalty. It was $75CAD cheaper a night than the current rate.

    Vancouver - Pan Pacific or Fairmont Waterfront?

    We are sailing in May 2021 and I booked the Fairmont Waterfront. It will be myself, my husband, and our two sons (20 & 18.) I ended up booking two rooms that connect- a king and a double/double. We canceled our August cruise and the May cruise was much cheaper, so I splurged on the hotel. The...

    For those sailing in 2021...how are you feeling?

    My family and I were booked on an August 2020 Disney Alaska cruise, which I cancelled the end of March. I took my refund and rebooked it for May 2021. My initial worry was losing my job and having the money tied up into a cruise that I couldn’t cancel. But I have been reassured of my position at...

    Thoughts on August 31 Alaskan cruise

    My family was booked on the August 3rd Alaska cruise. I cancelled a couple of weeks ago and received a full refund since I had not reached my PIF date. But I did rebook a May 2021 Alaska Cruise. A few things drove that decision 1) I work at a private university and while I am pretty sure I will...

    Coronavirus and DCL Megathread - Suspension of Departures for the fleet until early November. Booking only available from early December.

    My family was booked on the August 3rd Alaska Cruise. I cancelled today, since it is before my PIF date, but I booked a May 2021 Alaska Cruise to take its place. I work for a private university, and have no guarantee that I will have a job later this year. I would rather have my cash back now...

    Club Intrawest Resort... Are they worth it? Dean your thoughts?

    Last May after a cruise, I stayed at the Club Intrawest, Whistler. We stayed in a one bedroom unit for 3 nights. It was a very nice, clean unit. It was decorated nicely and had a fireplace. Nothing was missing or broken. It even included parking for one vehicle. The hotel was within Whistler...

    Booking cruise with DVC points

    If you book now using DVC you will pay the $1226 upfront plus the $95 booking fee. If you rebook onboard for the same cruise, you will have to pay another $95 booking fee and typically the points discount is 10%. I have never rebooked a cruise, but I would imagine you also have to worry about...

    Reviews of Stateroom 7008 on the Wonder?

    We took the repo cruise from LA to Vancouver in April and we had room 7004. There were 2 adults and 2 children (10 & 8) in the room. The room was clean and was comfortable. My only complaint was our room creaked alot. I have been on 3 cruises on the Magic and have never had a room creak so much...
