A follow up to this that if you have not seen is good for a laugh. The cruise was set to leave Istanbul, Turkey on November 1. Then it was postponed until November 11 but not from the Netherlands. It was postponed a second time until November 30. Finally, on November 17, 2 weeks before the third date the whole thing was cancelled. The reason why wad kind of a good one depending on how you look at it. The company had NO CRUISE SHIP. Yes, you read right. They were selling 3-year cruises for a ship they did not even own. The real sad part is that many people, figuring they would be on the seas for 3 years, put their belongings into storage and/or sold them off and either sold their homes or rented them out to others while they would be at sea. So, those people are homeless and scrambling to find a new place to live. All while waiting on their money to be refunded which will happen but over the next three months. Sounds like an episode of Law and Order or something.
Another company is planning on offering a three-and-a-half-year cruise and it is being reported they are ahead of the game as they actually own a cruise ship.

I mean I'd not be sure if I'd have steady Wi-Fi and there's no way I'm skipping 3 years of FG releases.

Granted it might be a bit slower than orders are now, but you could still get them. Imagine rolling the dice in Europe, Australia or Asia. |
