I've just learned that Liberty of the Seas has the Norwalk virus. I am very concerned about health saftey. Royal Carribbean assures me they are desanitizing the ship thoroughly before anyone boards on the 2nd, which is when my cruise begins. Any thoughts?
Thanks.

I would go anyway. Just be very careful. Wash your hands alot. Avoid touching public surfaces like hand rails and door handles, especially as you leave the bathroom. And use the hand sanitizers whenever you see one.

One little note, when we were on the Triumph, they had little dispensers of small paper towels on the wall, just as you exited the public bathrooms, and a wastebasket right there. You are supposed to use those little paper towels to grip the door handle to open it up.( Call me dumb, but it took me a day or two to even notice them and realize what those were for. :)) Be sure to use them also.

Thanks so much for these replies. I fly to Miami tomorrow and I can hardly wait. I have a suitcase full of sanitizers so I should be just fine. Tee. Hee.

There was only about 3% of the total cruise population that got sick on this cruise. Someone boarded with it and spread it.

If you're still around, embarkation has been delayed for the 6/2 cruise for a thorough scrub-down.

My mom was on the 6/2 sailing and is currently in bed with Norwalk Virus. She didn't get sick until a few days later but she is pretty sick. She will be fine in a few days. But it is just one of those things that happens. At least she wasn't sick on the ship and enjoyed her cruise. I'm still waiting to hear about it.

Lady Jag makes a good point. The actual figure was 3.5%. Since the cruise line has to report anything over 3% that's why we heard so much about it. If one fewer person had been sick it would have been below 3% and we never would have heard of it.

Wondering how shantiearth enjoyed the cruise?
