    Anyone following any covid protocols on cruises?

    Masks are still required on flights in Canada and in airports. Preflight covid testing isn't required but you still have to fill out the "ArriveCan" app which is where you upload your vaccine information and travel details, and how you are feeling on your travel day. Once that is complete they...

    Castaway Cay: Family Beach vs Serenity Bay

    If you are interested in swimming Serenity Bay beach nearly as good as the family beach, at least near the bar end of the Serenity Bay beach. The water is shallow, never got deeper than my chest and there are rocks and seaweed. The family beach was much nicer on the feet, and the water was deep...

    Canadians with WDW Annual Pass, should I take the refund or extension?

    Really? So I'm not getting credit for the 117 days? I looked and I definitely didn't get an email about that. I wonder if I have a case to make with them about that?

    Canadians with WDW Annual Pass, should I take the refund or extension?

    This is great information! Friends I had been speaking with believed that the refund wasn't going to include the 117 closed days and they were a bit upset. Using your model I calculated the total and I'm going to apply for the refund as well. My extended expiration date now goes into March but...

    Escape From Home Life to 4th of July on the High Seas - A July 2019 Cruise Trip Report (Completed 6/21)

    Thank you for this thread! I found it in February right before I left for my very first cruise (March 1-8) and I was desperate for pictures onboard the RC ships. Well you had me hooked to check for updates, I became less interested in the ship and more interested in your family trip. Bravo in...

    Proudly Canadian Supporting Other Canadians

    Maybe you could use the scraps to make mini quilt masks, put those scraps to good use :rotfl2:

    Masks?

    I received them and they are definitely made in China. The nose wire is also terrible and won't stay bent so I can't recommend them >:(

    Masks?

    I ordered a box of 50 disposable masks from Amazon on Sunday and they were delivered yesterday. There were a lot to choose from so I think Amazon is starting to get stock in as well. They were about $34 for 50, packaged in bags of 10. They are definitely less heavy and hot than fabric masks, but...

    Shocked and horrified - Disney Store Shipping!!!

    And Disney does have an online shopping section that ships from Canada, Disney Movie Club. The infrastructure is there, they just need to have the will to apply it to the Disney Store.

    Is anyone worried that there won’t be a vaccine by next March Break?

    Oh man! I totally didn't see your post! I hate it when people double post stuff, and now I'm "people" :rotfl2: . This is vaccine trial is happening where I work, and I'll be volunteering if I qualify 8-)

    Is anyone worried that there won’t be a vaccine by next March Break?

    A phase 1 clinical trial for a vaccine is starting within the next two weeks in Halifax. It will be a safety trial with participants between the ages of 18-55 and 65 years and older, then phase two trials will involve other vaccine centres in Canada and include participants from 18-85 years old...

    International travel restrictions

    This is the million dollar question! If yes, then vaccines are going to be golden, and using serum from recovered patients to help critically ill patients will be a valid therapy. If not, or if the virus is mutating too fast to nail it down, vaccines won't be useful and people could get...

    When is Your Next Royal Cruise?

    I just got off the Explorer March 8 (Star Trek Cruise :flower1: ) which was right before it all really hit the fan. The next sailing was another charter which had some problems with last minute cancellations and other things, but then Explorer was supposed to go to France for some work, which...

    The cost of Covid

    I'm so sorry for your loss, and sorry for the situation. Isolation and social distancing has hit us all in ways we might not have been able to predict a few weeks ago. I hope it will resolve soon, the isolation has been tough on everyone 💔

    It was my first cruise ever! There were so many events, discussion panels, parties that they overlapped and I had to miss some. So many people in very elaborate costumes, I have no idea how they got them onboard a ship. There were only children older than 13 allowed on board, and there were no...

    I have faith that things will improve, I just don't know how long that will take. Disney has said they will move the expiry date of annual passes to compensate for the days the parks are closed. And while I was on the Star Trek cruise (March 1-8) I booked the next one March 7-14, 2021 :flower1:

    I'm in 14 day isolation because of returning from Florida early Sunday (fabulous vacation, but I don't want to say too much because so many of you have had your vacations cancelled). A friend has volunteered to do a grocery run for me tomorrow, but she told me she's keeping the air miles! Be...
