Creator's Key Takeaways

perhaps the most important thing to know is that at this point no one knows for certain when cruises will return

if you book a trip and it is later cancelled you don't really risk losing your money

taking a cruise it is going to be vastly different until the pandemic is wiped out

if you are someone who for sure won't get the vaccine then it would be smart idea to wait until there's more clarity before booking your cruise

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Hold off on booking flights, parking, shuttles, and hotels until cruises actually leave the port with passengers again.
✓Book farther out in the future (e.g., 2022) for more options and a better position around the world.
✓If you won't get the vaccine, wait for more clarity before booking a cruise.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Financial worry if cruise is cancelled — Cruise lines have made passengers whole with refunds or credits; no reason to think this will change.
Vaccine requirement uncertainty — Wait for more clarity if you won't get the vaccine; cruises likely won't sail before vaccine is widely available.
Limited options for early sailings — Expect fewer itineraries, shorter trips, and limited ports for the first cruises back.
