Ruined it by going out in New York the night before and got Covid. Would’ve been awesome as the weather was perfect.

This is where our cruise went downhill. My husband got Covid and we were in isolation Tuesday to the end. We made the mistake of going out to a Broadway show the night before our cruise and this ruined our trip. Watched the different ports through a window. Norwegian was very accommodating, gave us menus, free internet for my husband, refunds for all excursions and allowed me to use their phone line to call delta to reschedule our flight as we were required to stay 1 night in a hotel for Covid travel restrictions.

Sorry for your misfortune. We spent 2 days NYC before our Aug 22 and a day after without any of the precautions you mention and no COVID. Just lucky for us I guess.
