Would you wear a mask to go on a cruise

No I wouldn't.

I have a cruise Aug.22nd that I’m thinking about rescheduling for next year because I’m not sure how safe it will be. Wearing a mask the entire cruise won’t be as much fun or comfortable. The only reason the cruise-lines will require masks is because they can not effectively manage social distancing and still fill a ship. Bottom line, the large gathering spaces on the ships will all be high risk areas until we have a vaccine. For now, if I want to cruise, I’ll wear a mask, but that will depend on what problems or issues are identified by passengers with the first few cruises that sail in Aug.

I won't wear one. I wear them into the grocery store and then let my husband stand in line with his mask to check out. I have asthma and am claustrophobic on top of it. As soon as he's in line, I get out of the store and rip my mask off. Wearing the mask makes me feel like that time I lay in the bottom of the pool drowning. Hard pass !

When I got the new SUV with the digital dash I had to get bi-focal sun glasses to be able to read the dash while driving. I have to keep an eye on the speed if not my lead foot just sinks down.

Unless he's driving, my DH just takes his glasses off. I can't do that. So much for the fair world theory.

I figured out part of my discomfort with a respirator, it goes up high on my nose, that pushes my glasses up and then I'm not looking through the center of the lens and that affects my vision making me a bit dizzy. Kind of like walking around with your reading glasses on because when they are pushed up I'm looking through the bi-focal part of the lens.

Welcome back BonnMike, long time no see.

If I want to cruise, and the stipulation was that a mask needed to be worn I would have no problem complying. I wear a cloth mask for shopping all the time now - it's required in most of our local stores.

I think that is a great question however I'm not sure of my answer.

Mask? I do not think so. There is still the bigger question of sanitizing. Are you designated a chair near the pool or will it be a major wipe down after each occupant? Dinner arrangements- how many to a table and when do you line up, etc. Too many unknowns!!!!!

Mixed feelings...but I guess I would....but that assumes the amenities we like on board are still accessible..and besides, AUNTIE is right...still waiting for those "rules" that the CDC will approve.
