2021, from a travel perspective, seems to have been better than 2020. Now let’s hope that 2022 is MUCH better to make our travel dreams come true.
Here is what we are doing at the VEGAS VOYAGERS to make travel wishes happen. As I write this we are actively preparing for our two “Bus to the Boat” cruises. Our first trip since January 2020 is a Mexican Riviera cruise on the Royal Caribbean Navigator of the Seas sailing February 21 – 28, 2022. Ports of call will include Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan and Puerto Vallarta. And for you Royal Caribbean fans you probably know that this is the first time in ten years that Royal Caribbean has had a ship with its homeport in Los Angeles. We have a nice sized group heading to the sunshine and blue skies of the Mexican Riviera.
Our second “Bus to the Boat” cruise is a Pacific Coast cruise on Princess Cruise Line’s Majestic Princess March 26 – April 2, 2022. Scheduled ports are San Francisco, Santa Barbara, San Diego and Ensenada, Mexico.
And we are bringing along our good friends the PHAT PACK to provide exclusive shows and entertainment for the group. So far the participation in this cruise has far exceeded our expectations as it looks like we will have at least three buses filled to covid acceptable capacity.
A word about covid protocols. The bus company we use has installed UV lighting in their buses and air filtration systems similar to the airlines. We expect to limit people on the bus to about 40 people and the bus can hold 60. Cruise lines are requiring all passengers to be vaccinated and to take a covid test within 48 hours of departure and the test must be negative.
Yes. 2022 should be a lot better for travel. And yes, there is a new normal but as infection rates overall in the country are trending down, we must remain vigilant and abide by the rules implemented by the various travel suppliers. In that way our travel dreams and wishes will continue to come true.
