    I am going with October 31 Halloween ! for postponement or cancellation .

    Here is a possible suggestion that could work for 2022 , the Super Bowl is being played in Los Angeles on 2/6/22 .
    70000 Tons could happen that weekend starting 2/3/22 and ending 2/7/22 :shred: :shred: :shred:
    departing and returning to Fort Lauderdale Florida as usual .

    I mean this is even assuming we get an official cancellation. I think we all know that it’s not beneath them and their... “unique” levels of customer care to just leave it without saying anything at all

    I have to agree with you , as the song title of Metallica says "Sad but True ".
    From a courtesy vantage point , an official statement is in good taste to hopefully be released this month providing official updates .

    I’m guessing there’s still a game of chicken going on between 70k and Royal Caribbean. Neither of them officially wants to cancel because they’ll be on the hook for a ton of $$.

    That could drag out indefinitely.

    I was reading on the FAQ on the Royal Caribbean site and they have a goal of resuming cruises on 12/1/20 , they are attempting as of now . Not clear how the arrive at that date , with no coronavirus vaccine available . I am curious of how theses cruises will work out , if they actually have them . I would say with 99 percent certainty that there is not a way possible to have 70000 Tons in January 2021 ,that is worthwhile and safe .

    Nice to know the World isn’t really changing,it would be great for 70k to do everyone a solid and just cancel it but no probably the same old customer service we gotten used to.MORC changed things up and took over a resort ,thing sold out quickly.Have heard mostly positive things about their customer service,maybe 70k can sell the cruise to them if they decide to bail on everything.

Honestly with the number of restrictions that will probably be in place I don't think we'd attend anyway. Florida is such a hot mess right now and based on what I've dealt with in my ER I don't expect it to be better in winter, I suspect it will be much worse actually.

    Hope you guys are doing ok!!!! I just booked Rock Fest Barcelona for next year..first Euro Metal Fest!
    That's quite optimistic of you... things here in Barcelona are not exactly well. As I am writing, we are experiencing a 10pm to 6am curfew as well as a confinement during weekends. Since there is a lot of uncertainty about when a vaccine will be publicly available, I am definitely not optimistic about Rock Fest. Things should change, like, A LOT.

    Who thinks the sail date will come and go with no official announcement of any kind?

    No one has bought tickets, so there will be no one to officially complain.

      Honestly, knowing the skipper, that is a very real possibility. We'll get a post sometime next year "Hello Sailors (NOT!). 70k 2021 didn't happen..."

      Reminds me of a time years ago I was standing on a train platform waiting for my train on a cold winters morning in Melbourne. The train I was waiting for comes in to the station, not slowing down, zooming right past. Voice comes over the train station's speakers "Good morning passengers. The 7.21am train to the city scheduled to stop here.....did not."

      :lol:

      It isn't 'official official' cancellation until it's from Andy's mouth/70k's official media channels. Clearly it isn't happening at this point, and it's just going to be a running gag until/if an actual announcement occurs.

      here is a thought that just came to me , maybe on the home page that counts the days and hours down , it would be interesting of when it gets to the exact sail date and time , that it just rolls into the new cruise date and time to be considered the new announcement , revised date for probably 2022 !?!? :shred: :shred: :shred:

      No one has bought tickets, so there will be no one to officially complain.
      And guess what is about to happen in just a few hours :D

      Not gonna lie, I have a bad feeling that 70K is simply done for good. Folks had been pointing to the social media posts as proof of life, but I'm pretty sure those were all scheduled well in advance and are just on auto-pilot at this point (especially after seeing today's post).

      To get all the way to the departure date without even a single update (cancellation or otherwise) is ridiculous, even for an organization known far and wide for their terrible communication. I can only assume that there's no one manning the ship (no pun intended) and 70K will simply drift off and disappear at some point.

      Really hope I'm wrong, but I got a bad feeling about it.

      I must say I really felt there was at least a 60 % chance of when the departure date counter reached zero there would have been some type of update , a little disappointing .

      If you refresh the page, they replaced "Next departure:" with "Coming #SOON!"

      Given the poor-ass communications, I have to agree with you. It is encouraging yet shitty

      Would have been rad to get some details in the past 24 hours to coincide with when the skipper should have been giving his thankyou speech, but alas :cry:

      We never got confirmation that last year’s cruise was to happen on a Royal Caribbean ship, so take solace in the fact that you might have enjoyed your last piece of Sorrento’s pizza, and your last Fosters already.

      I don't think we have received any 'official' cancellation announcement yet...depending on how you define such a thing.

      Any other organization would have something along the lines of:

      Blah, blah, blah very disappointed. Blah, blah, blah apologize for circumstances beyond out control. Blah, blah, blah looking forward to sailing you guys again, blah, blah, blah.

      Not our beloved UMC, we are in love with abusive spouse that treats us like total shit 361 days a year, and then make it all better for 4 solid unbelievable days. As much as I am frustrated by any lack of clear communication when 2022 is announced my answer will be 'Take My Money Please'!

      Anyway I don't think we have a winner yet, since there was no 'cancellation announcement'. Maybe they will retro activity make one when they announce the next cruise :)
