Rare Acrusa Posted February 10, 2010 #1 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I noticed on page # 109 it says,( YEAR REFURBISHED Insignia& Nautica 2010 ) Does anyone know when they are doing this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanandJim Posted February 10, 2010 #2 Share Posted February 10, 2010 It's very simple to figure out. Just look on the sailing schedule for the ship in question for a gap of about three weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StanandJim Posted February 10, 2010 #4 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I realize that but the brochure only goes up to April. Therefore, if there is no three week gap from January to April then it will happen later in the year. ;) As I recall, the ships leave and re-enter the roster in the vicinity of Barcelona. This is usually a non-issue anyway, because the ships are so well maintained that it is hard to pinpoint what happened during the refit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will be my 3rd cruise on O and the 2nd on the Nautica. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is an 11 day gap in Nautica's schedule in Barcelona between the arrival on May 24 from Athens and departure of the next cruise to Istanbul on June 4th (which I am on :)) I figured this was either a "mini" sprucing up or a private charter.

It is probably dry dock then They usually go for 2 weeks the ship will be squeaky clean for you;) Lyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merryecho Posted February 13, 2010 #10 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Just got Azamar's new brochure- they really went all out to top O's. It is folio sized and was delivered UPS. But the photography and design can't compare to O. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rickey 88 Posted February 13, 2010 #12 Share Posted February 13, 2010 or are the prices for the cruises in this catalog alot more expensive than in the past? LuAnn It's very difficult to answer "are the prices more expensive?" as the only true measurement is to take identical cruises and compare one year to the next.Problem: Usually there are no identical cruises - and often changes are made as to the component parts of the cruise charges. (This year, water and soft drinks are now inclusive)Generally, one can compare "almost" similar cruises and come to the conclusion that prices are slightly higher. But then, what isn't?

rhohea Posted February 13, 2010 #13 Share Posted February 13, 2010 I think there is about a 10-12 day break for Insignia late November 2010 (from memory around the 24th) after its arrival in Barcelona. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But didn't Oceania change their pricing policy to include more taxes, etc in that initial price rather than getting sticker shock on the final total (Maybe I'm imagining things). That might account for higher brochure prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
