Almost a month ago, on March 13th, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued a 30 day “no sail” order for cruise ships.
Now that order has been extended an additional 100 days.
The new order extension will stay in place unless the COVID-19 pandemic is determined to no longer be a “public health emergency,” is rescinded or modified by the CDC, or 100 days from the filing in the Federal Register.
Disney has cancelled the following departures through May 17th
Disney Fantasy
- 7-Night Eastern Caribbean from Port Canaveral 5/2
- 7-Night Western Caribbean from Port Canaveral 5/9
- 7-Night Eastern Caribbean from Port Canaveral 5/16
Disney Dream
- 3-Night Bahamas from Port Canaveral 5/1
- 4-Night Bahamas from Port Canaveral 5/4
- 3-Night Bahamas from Port Canaveral 5/8
- 4-Night Bahamas from Port Canaveral 5/11
- 3-Night Bahamas from Port Canaveral 5/15
Disney Magic
- 4-Night Bahamas from Miami 4/30
- 4-Night Bahamas from Miami 5/4
- 3-Night Bahamas from Miami 5/8
- 12-Night Transatlantic from Miami to Barcelona 5/11
Like they did before, guests are being given two options. Either a 125% future cruise credit to be used for a future sailing within 15 months of the original sail date, or a full refund.
I expect more sailings to be cancelled into July and possibly further out. Stay tuned and we will keep you posted.
