How ironic that it takes Covid 19, with all the safety measures employed because of it, to make me feel safe on a cruise ship. :-) And the trapped feeling? Not an issue with a port-intensive cruise.

Thankfully, I'm immune to the desire to seek status on NCL. Oh. Wait. I'm not. They offered a 2 extra points/night deal as part of their Black Friday non-special (the rest of the offerings were just different ways of offering what's been available for some time, with many prices actually being higher). So I've got a deposit on a 9 night cruise out of Copenhagen that visits St Peterburg. And on the way, Sweeden and Finland, two more places on my wife's bucket list (she was some Swedish heritage and you can guess some of mine).
