So it is with never-cruisers.

I wouldn't go on one right now because they're all cancelled. I'm hoping that changes before our Norwegian cruise to Alaska for our 50th anniversary this summer. Meanwhile, when this is over, all you never-cruisers will go right back to ball games, car races, concerts, buffet restaurants...


Except that I can get up and leave anytime I want from the other venues that you mentioned and they don’t last for a week or more at a time.

Ymmv and good luck with your coming cruise.

That was the one time, I appreciated boomers.

I wouldn't go on one of those things before this. Ain't much there to interest me that I couldn't do without being crammed in with 3000 people anyway.

I wouldn't have taken one even before the current situation.

I can get a lot on one plate of course.....learned that at church pot lucks.



If I over eat now a days I just suffer all day. 10 or 15 years from now I will learn not to over eat.

The real reason is that they'd have to go more than 25 miles from where they've lived their entire lives. Some people like travel, others don't. I like travel...

Depends on how much they paid me. For 6 figures I'd go right now on a disease ridden vessel.

Half are old wheelchair gambling grannies

They are chained to the slots, Foley catheter honey wagon service.


You never see that 1/2 of the passenger population

They don’t disembark, and do the 2 hour bus rides to Chicen Itza, snorkeling in grand cayman, appaloosas on the beach with ghadaffi’s nephew, etc

😃

In all seriousness you couldn't offer me $10,000 to go on one. There's nothing there I want.

Obviously, you think that 10 grand is a lot of money.

No way any intelligent person should get on a cruise. Good grief.

Was....

Alaskan was in the works for next year.

Doubt we’ll chance it now.

—————

Hell we got two Taylor Swift shows this summer, LA, and Foxborough (the estrogen members) I wasn’t going to that. Rather take a covid cruise 🤮

And a 2 week to Banff

All on the kibosh now,

People have been getting sick on cruise ships long before this virus popped up. I'd love to do a European river cruise, but there's no way I'd get on one of these floating Petri dishes.

Done plenty of traveling. I love it. I don't need to do it canned.
