Agree with gwright, 2 cruises ago, I think I got covid on the plane. Thought it was a bad cold.

It shouldn't come as a surprise that COVID is still going around. It's going to be around forever. I'm making sure we get boosters again before our next cruise.

So sorry to hear this ,I am booked on her Oct and November . Now, this makes me nervous have COPD . And certainly can't get that .hopefully it be gone by then . I wear a mask, so maybe that will help . That's a huge ship and beautiful. Went on her 22 of February had no problems.
