New video from Paul Ludlow today, couldn't agree more with this ...

'the cost of euros abroad, the general hassle of flying, really does make a cruise a shtresh free holiday and one which gives proven value for money'

Is it just me, or are company bosses getting younger and younger?

What do you mean 'bring bsck testing'? Almost all lines still have pre-boarding testing. P&o re trying with about 5 cruises to see how things go with no testing - so testing (unfortunately) hasn't gone away for cruising (even though imv it's now pointless).

If you go on a cruise, its about 1 in 4 you'll catch it - it's no big deal anymore. It'll only be avoided by the paranoid or the very vulnerable (when a cold/flu/noro or thousands of other things could send you to heaven).

We had recently a big dance get together (not on a cruise) where I'd say 400 people were packed on the dance floor for hours in total, some very old. No requirements whatsoever, covid didn't get a mention, and all 10 we kept in touch with caught it ( with no symptons for us). I assume probably 200/300/400 caught it. No idea how many died - but for some their number was up whether they caught it or not.

Those still paranoid are wasting their life imv - we should all just get on with it
and treat it like thousands of other diseases.

Did a cruise to Norway on Iona on the 25th June. We had a fabulous time on a wonderful ship.Covid not an issue to our group.We noticed more younger people on this one, perhaps because we normally fly/cruise.The share price will bounce back given time.

Cruise liners will be under pressure to bring back testing. Around 4% of all adults, ie passengers have a mild cold. That's 80 passengers of a 2000 capacity ship, thereby spreading it around to everyone else.

Trend still downwards along with most other travel stocks. Still sitting on my hands.

brutlol, i dont think i could handle a cruise without drinking...

[toffeeman] 12/7/2022 09:14

Yep go on Azamara or Viking - drinks are complementary and they have massive discounts atm

[oneilly] 12/7/2022 09:08

I wasn't doubting you, Sambuca. Just thought it was worth looking at Oceania website and made the inevitable deduction of which cruise it was actually meant to be.

Guess some people might think that going to Belfast was a world cruise!

[jan-mar] 11/7/2022 20:27

We looked at the Queen Mary 2 world cruise, you can do sections of it, we liked the look of Dubai to Singapore

[sambuca] 11/7/2022 19:50

graham I just copied and pasted their words, so they call it a world cruise.

Covid effects trains.

affects.

[the codger] 08/7/2022 19:58

Slowly but surely on the up

[bookbroker] 08/7/2022 13:22

Probably because they want the luxury arm Seabourn, or whatever it is called, but they can cherry pick the tastiest morsels. Imagine cruising for their own nationals somewhat restricted by their own religious ideology. But they will see a bargain, and can see tourism in the Middle East only likely to burgeon.

[smurfy2001] 08/7/2022 11:08

Well the Saudi's invested in an 8.2% stake, don't think they are stupid.
