TheTravelista Posted June 14, 2010 #52 Share Posted June 14, 2010 I just laughed so hard at the thought of a transatlantic cruise ending in Galveston. If anything it would be NY then they would have their repositioning cruise to Galveston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelz66 Posted June 14, 2010 #53 Share Posted June 14, 2010 This is how Carnival should shuffle the ships when the Magic comes to the states, the Carnival Magic will be in Ft. Lauderdale, the Carnival Miracle will move to Galveston with the Conquest and the Carnival Ecstacy should be moved to New Orleans giving them a second ship. That would leave Galveston with just one ship! :eek: Galveston is usually pretty well booked with two ships. I can't imagine them going down to just one ship when business is doing so well for them there. I think they were saying that they think Galveston would have 2 larger ships swapping the Miracle for the Ecstasy, and keeping the Conquest. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.S.Oceanlover Posted June 14, 2010 #55 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Just got off the phone with CCL and in fact the info is true. With taxes for a 4a it was $865pp for ES. Fire should love this. :) Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTravelista Posted June 14, 2010 #59 Share Posted June 14, 2010 If its true I'm happy for the Texans. I know you guys have wanted a new ship for a while. I still think a transatlantic to Texas is odd though lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littlegoo75 Posted June 14, 2010 #60 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Awesome. If I can save enough vacation time, I can use my British Airways points for one way airfare to Europe, and then the cruise would end up close to home. Just have to figure out how to talk the hubby into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Triumph (and RCCL) can make it to Belize and Roatan, we should be able to do so out of Galveston too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy cow....it's the end of the world...LOL :D There is always a first time for everything....but if it's true...methinks some heads may roll if they let the cat out of the bag befor the "Big formal announcement". :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all started this morning when they started to upload the info into there booking systems. Most ccl employees that I know have been checking regularly to see when and where.

If the Triumph (and RCCL) can make it to Belize and Roatan, we should be able to do so out of Galveston too. You know how Carnival is with going to those distant ports and using extra fuel. I hope you get your wish. Most 8 day cruises would knock us outta the box unless they left on Saturday and came back Sunday. Any other days we couldn't get off the extra day.

Traveler353 Posted June 14, 2010 #74 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Just talked to my PVP and he confirmed that the Magic is indeed ending up its TA in Galveston, BUT and he stressed BUT no word on where her actual home port will be and no word on her future schedule after arriving in Galveston. He stressed that it is normal for Carnival to take a new ship to another port for a month before she goes to her eventual home port. So all you New Orleans fans don't give up hope now. It could still happen. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are starting to do them regularly out of San Diego. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
