No it’s being offered to people currently booked on Ovation. Will go on the website after Feb 20 when the Ovation passenger decision deadline ends.

We're in a GLS and that loss of service is frankly unacceptable.

The new Quantum sailing from Honolulu to Vancouver is 8 days instead of 9 now. I'm sure they're more than happy to offer that for the same price.

Do the Oct'ish 2025 TPACs (ex: Vancouver back to Sydney) fall under the coming soon section? Sometime after the remaining February releases? Any approximate timeframe?

It was posted in the Sydney to Honolulu Roll Call thread. I would call or have your TA call.

From the roll call thread for Sydney to Honolulu. Haven't heard anything on our Honolulu to Vancouver. Quantum will be doing the TPAC and should go live for booking after existing passengers have had a chance to make their decision (February 8th for syd-hon).

Quantum now has a port call listed in Kona for April 29th 2025.

I just want to see come clarity.. or nothing changes and were creating our own uncertainty! Just want to be able to reliably book our dates for Aulani :/ Although the prices suck because it falls over the Easter window.

So you think Quantum will replace Ovation on the TP and leave 1 day earlier?

What changed to make you think that?

Ya, were on the Hawaii to Vancouver.. but we're going to Aulani beforehand and the uncertainty makes the whole thing annoying.

People will book up the suites with the higher deposits and then those sunset rooms, with a catchy name, will look more appealing!

Really holding out on Quantum and Anthem getting over to Alaska...

The 29th definitely wasn't there ~3 hours ago... Interesting! We're on Ovation 4/29/25 Honolulu to Vancouver as well so watching closely.

Quantum is booked April 25th 2025 in Kona.

There are a lot of factors to consider here, but price for what you get... our 2025 HNL-YVR repo we went with the Star Class Grand Loft Suite on Ovation which was almost the same price as a mid-ship Deluxe Family Balcony on Disney after (Disney converts from USD to CAD). RC is not going up in price in a vacuum and I think, for what you get (especially in a suite), there is some good value.

There are also no port calls listed for Lahaina or anywhere else in Hawaii in 2025. Ovation it still "scheduled" for Lahaina per the current itinerary, but I do not actually expect it will be going there.

Ovation departs HNL on April 29th, that would be quite a bit earlier. Is it not more likely to see a second TP? Hopefully they make up their mind before we have to book Aulani.

Booked at the start of June.. just after the deposit change! When did it actually release? We booked a GLS and there were already 2 booked... I put ours on a hold and by the next day it was down to 1 left! Price went up $6000 too. Curious.. do you know the original release price of the GLS? Ours was ~20,100cad / 14.5USD. For what ever reason the GLS and the Sky Loft were within ~$200 of each other. Maybe that was your June price drop.

I was looking for that info when trying to figure out what was coming back in spring 25 (aside from ovation) and different websites seems to show different things. Is there an official source of truth on those bookings? Some sites only show Ovation.. some show no RC for 25.. and other has the Quantum, Ovation and Brilliance in there.

Do you think there will be an Asia -> Hawaii -> YVR/SEA repo after the Dry Dock leading to Alaska?

Ya, $100 (Canadian) per person.

We booked a suite for 2025 a few days ago and were told we would not lose the deposit if we changed the ship / sailing...
