Should You Cancel Your Cruise?

With all the Omicron warnings, are you wondering if you should cancel your cruise?

In this week’s podcast we dig a little deeper into the question “should you cancel your cruise?” Sheri shares her passion for facts, and how they should affect your decisions about cruising. We’ve talk about this in a previous article, and YouTube live, but we feel like there’s more to be said on the topic. Here are the main points you should ponder when considering if you should cancel your cruise.

  1. Port cancellation tolerance
  2. Flight flexibility and backup options
  3. Illness and your personal risk factors
  4. Reality check: how will this impact your work, your circle of friends?
  5. How is this making you feel?

You can ask yourself: Would you feel relief if you cancelled? Would getting a refund and taking the trip later offer you peace of mind? Why did you want to go on this cruise in the first place? Are those factors likely to change, or not?

6.Will your trip be better if you postpone?

Here’s what people are saying about the CruiseTipsTV Unplugged Podcast

  • Made me a cruise expert
    March 22, 2023 by MK OKAYY from United States

    I have fallen in love with cruising, and Cruise Tips TV has become a regular part of my life now. Cruising is wonderful, but I do think there is a learning gap for people used to land vacations. My first cruise, I made all the mistakes. Second cruise, overcompensated and made all new mistakes. Then, I found Cruise Tips TV and it improved my cruising experience ten-fold. Now, I always have a cruise booked that I’m looking forward to. I follow Sherri and fam to keep up to date and to keep my excitement alive for my next sail. My partner and I are planning our first Alaska cruise with Princess this May. Truly, I would never have tried an Alaska cruise without Cruise Tips TV’s vlogs, videos, and podcasts about cruising the last frontier. I’m big on knowing what to expect, and they have made me feel very prepared for what I can predict, and ready to embrace surprises I can’t. My partner and I are planning to have a packing date night a couple weeks prior to our cruise. I’ll have packing cubes, the Alaska packing list, and cruise-inspired cocktails handy. And I’ll have the podcast playing in the background of course. Thanks so much for all your work and content.
