Cannot wait to reschedule our AMA cruise postponed from end of March (Tulip Time) – Trying for Danube this time.
This was a great webinar. We had a cruise scheduled Mar 22 and AMA was amazing handling credits and refunds. I told my husband as I watched this that its probably not good for me because I’m so anxious to rebook. Cannot wait and the warmth and values of AMA come through loud and clear on the webinar. I’m really impressed that Kristin joined… And thought that the idea of the different representatives with different perspectives was brilliant.
I was Scheduled to attend but work got in the way so I am particularly appreciative that the video was made available. Thank you Ralph and Britton (and like your new look Britton!)
Thank you Colleen. Such nice words. Much appreciated.
Couldn’t make the webinar yesterday but I’m looking forward to the replay link.
On another topic, I’m wondering how the new Cambodian regulations will impact the cruise lines exotic destinations. As if there aren’t enough challenges… Here’s what I just learned from the U.S. Embassy in Cambodia:
Cambodia Entry Requirements
On June 10, authorities announced a requirement that all foreign travelers entering Cambodia pay a deposit of $3,000 upon arrival at airports for mandatory COVID-19 testing and potential treatment services. On June 8, authorities released a fee schedule for these testing and treatment services. Travelers should be prepared to see this deposit applied to a minimum of $165 for mandatory COVID-19 testing, approximately $1,281 more to support quarantine in the event one or more passengers on their flight test positive, and a minimum of approximately $3,255 more for treatment and quarantine if the traveler tests positive. The Embassy recommends all travelers be prepared upon entry into Cambodia to pay for the full costs identified in the fee schedule.

Some good points Paulette. Guess I won’t be going back to Cambodia until this all blows over.
Hi. My BDM called me last evening and told me to watch your webinar. I cannot seem to find a link to the AmaWaterways one held yesterday at 1pm. Maybe I am missing something, but I would much appreciate hearing! Many thanks! Wendy
