[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I haven't figured out how to search individual threads, so apologies if this has been addressed, but what would you do if you have already booked a cruise (Disney to be exact) with kids for mid-April.

I'm torn between:

cancelling (right now, I'd only lose my deposit);

holding out and waiting to see if Disney will start canceling and hopefully I'll get a full refund; or

recognizing that we're all healthy, it likely won't be an issue, and enjoying ourselves (at the risk of getting stuck on the boat/quarantined). [/quote]

I love Disney and Disney cruises. I would not get on a cruise right now. I would try to get a credit. I would not want to get stuck on a cruise ship.

That being said, we have plans to go to Florida for spring break and we plan on going. We were going to a theme park but may just hang out at the beach instead.[/quote]

DP here. They are 100% NOT giving credits. Myself and many others on my cruise board have called. There are no policy changes or exceptions at this time. [/quote]

And why would they? They're losing out buckets of money with people cancelling and not having tourism revenue on the ships. Their cancellation policies are some insurance for this exact reason.

It'd be different if their ships caught fire - then yeah they owe you a refund and credits. But this is out of their hands.[/quote]

People are asking why others are still traveling and this is why. BUT if you happen to be on a cruise ship that gets a confirmed case on board and/or has to miss a port or two, you get a 100% refund and a huge discount off a future cruise. The people that were supposed to leave out of SF in two days got cancelled, refunded 100% AND given a 100% credit towards a future cruise. Bet those people are glad they didn't cancel on their own![/quote]

That's because their ship was quarantined. You're talking about the Grand Princess right? The ship literally isn't at port to pick those people up so YES THEY GET THEIR REFUND. It's the ship's fault.

If you're waiting for every ship to suddenly be scuttled in a bay or ocean, I have some sad news for you...[/quote]

I’m just saying I will go, enjoy my trip, and likely it won’t be disrupted. If it is disrupted I will be compensated. So why should I cancel?[/quote]
