We were booked to do a western Caribbean cruise for next week, then Covid
And I’m with you, don’t think cruise lines will be running by spring, my guess is late 2021 if at all next year.

Agreed. But our kids loved RC. The kids clubs and activities were fun for them

If you hold 100+ shares of Norwegian they’ll give you ship credit depend on cruise length

Don’t do Carnival with no kids. Yes for passport.

It was mine as well until we did Norway - 4 days above the Arctic Circle.

I like cruises but it’s an awful way to see places. You won’t see Jamaica, you’ll see some crappy port town

Use a travel agent. They are usually a little cheaper.
