HUrry CCL and post your summer 2012 schedule!!

[momof4boys]

I know this is very early, but I am tired of checking every day to see when the summer of 2012 schedules will be out! My kids are driving me crazy asking me what our choices are. I just want to book and start getting excited. (We can't cruise this summer--:mad:)

I think you may have to wait a bit longer...maybe March :(

I'm waiting too. I was told January.

Seems like the summer schedules for the following year come out around the March-April time frame each year.

and you believed this person knew?? :D :eek:

 

No one knows .. its come as early as Dec, last year some were not out until august.. typically spring.

 

I sure as heck wouldnt check daily this far in advance of what I would anticipate would be the time frame, probably next spring.

I just checked a couple of other cruise lines websites:

 

> Royal Caribbean has some sailings through September 2012.

 

> NCL has MANY sailings through APRIL 2013!!

 

Carnival goes through phases... there have been times in the past where we have booked over two years (~25 months actually) in advance with them. Right now the outer window is at ~16 months.

 

I mean... it is ALMOST 2011, and they are only booking through April of the next year!! I would expect a few more months to open up VERY soon.. if for no other reason to avoid people making their summer 2012 plans with ANOTHER CRUISE LINE!! :eek:

So true. We may look at RCCL. We have booked before more than 18 months out on CCL so I just have been looking. It is fun! :)

 

So don't worry about me wasting my time checking the web every day. I enjoy it. Some people post frequently, others enjoy reading. :rolleyes:

I havent really looked .. does RCL have more than Allure and Oasis out past April 2012?? That would be unusual for them. They, unlike Carnival, do have a schedule for releases.

I just checked a few, and did not see all their ships listed - which is why I said "some" sailings as opposed to NCL's "many" sailings.

 

Carnival does it... when they "get around" to it! (Y I K E S !!!)

When the bookings do open is it likely they will include the remainder of 2012?:confused: I am anxious to start the planning for our second Carnival cruise on the Pride and am interested in October 2012:D We had such a great time with our first experience with CCL, I am looking forward to booking the next!:cool: I have read some great things about the Spirit class ships, and Baltimore is close enough for us to drive and save $$$ on flights!:rolleyes:

When they release the next year's itineraries, it should be thru mid April 2013.
