We called our Cruise specialist (actually our Travel Agent) in an attempt to book a Cruise in 2022. We decided to try RCCL out of Galveston for May 2022. Our Travel Agent advised us that the new Policy for all Cruise lines is that you cannot leave the Ship when in Port unless you are on an excursion for the Ship you are on. No getting off the Ship to find someone on shore to take you on a tour, or do a sightseeing-on-your-own trip. She did say that she had no idea what the rules would be at that time (May 2022), but for now no one can leave the Ship when in Port unless you have booked an excursion through the Ship. Most of those are well over $100 per person, and a Family of four, visiting 3 or 4 Ports could cost a fortune. When in Port, the Shops onboard as well as the Casinos are closed, so there is little to do although the Ship should have some activities planned. Also, there was a $500 non-refundable deposit per person. Needless to say, we didn't book it.
