We are in that situation with Anthem. I have refundable one way airfares booked to France. Only doing Southampton to Civitavecchia. Our friends are booked to Singapore. Others are joining them in Civitavecchia and Dubai. But they have nothing booked except the cruise thru a USA TA.

No Still not official Voyager is not coming!

I hear the Travel Agents are concerned if Voyager goes on sale going thru the Suez on the way to Oz.

That’s what it appears like to me at the moment.

Geoff Royal still hasn’t announced what is happening with Anthem repositioning Southampton to Singapore in October. The whole situation is just a mess. The odds are the Voyager passengers will be in the same situation this time next year. The October Anthem cruises keep on appearing and disappearing on the website. It looks like they might be planning on still running the November Dubai to Singapore cruise. But leaving Southampton 2 weeks earlier by cancelling the Canaries cruise.

Cruise Passenger is only going by the test runs overnight. No official word from Gavin yet. Remember Grandeur came out on the tests for Alaska and was replaced by Serenade.

Lelepa Fact or Fiction?

Brilliance off to Hobart for 5 nights from Sunday. No 8 nights to South Pacific today. Not ready yet.

Adventure isn’t even going to Europe 2025. I can’t see them swapping Voyager for Adventure so Adventure can come Down Under! Why didn't the Poms get Liberty or Freedom instead of Independence Northern Summer 2025. They are getting Indy back again. .

Adventure has cruises on sale till the end of April 2026 from Fort Canaveral!

Possible Chilli but I think it will be most likely Radiance Class!

I see in the updated booking conditions starting 2 April it mentions Trans Atlantic, Trans Pacific and Round Australia cruises in the non refundable booking deposit section. Maybe Radiance or Serenade for Oz 25/26.

Good question. I couldn’t find Radiance anywhere 25/26 Oz season, I actually think more chance of Serenade being in Oz 25/26 then Radiance if a ship that class is coming here.

Good question. They used to be released with Aussie deployments. To and from Oz. From memory they were released a few weeks later last year.

Australia 10 April in Sydney

Has a few visits in St Maarten 25/26.

The Wiggles are a Oz Children Band. i assume they will be doing stuff on board like Dreamworks 10 years ago on the Australian ships.

But why make us wait until Mid July? We are only on the Southampton to Rome sector.. if Royal offer the same compensation as I getting for my Brilliance cancellation this weekend it is not enough to cover the one airfares involved. One way airfares must be costing people a fortune to or from Dubai. Royal were offering up to $400USD for international airfares.

Royal Oz posted this yesterday Get ready for The Ultimate Wiggly Adventure! We're excited to announce that Royal Caribbean is exclusively teaming up with much loved family brand, The Wiggles, as their Official Cruise Holiday Partner. Get ready to set sail on an exclusive Wiggly sailing from Sydney or Brisbane in summer 2025-2026! Sailings are on sale from 10 April, 2024.
