eskiemomo Posted October 17, 2011 #1 Share Posted October 17, 2011 just wondering what your thoughts/rumors from your TAs are about Hawaii cruises from DCL. We are very interested in the Hawaii cruise, but since the 2013 schedules aren't released yet not sure what to do... I really should have booked the Oct 2012 while on board the Magic last month :( 10% of THAT cruise is a chunk of change. I'm wondering if DCL will offer the same/more Hawaii cruises in 2013? I see in 2012 the dates are April and October only, does anyone know why that is? Would that always be the case due to logistics (for example the Pacific coast repositioning cruises always happen at the start and end of Alaska season, year after year)?

boulders Posted October 17, 2011 #2 Share Posted October 17, 2011 They're repositioning cruises. Other cruiselines do it as well around those times. It's too late for them to be in Alaska and too early for them to be doing MR. I doubt you will see them at other times, unless DCL decides to do several of those instead of MR. I would be on one if they did. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hexdragon Posted October 17, 2011 #3 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Well they had scheduled a single Hawaiian cruise for this year. It sold out so quickly that they added a second. I would assume that they would have cruises to Hawaii in 2013. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ducklite Posted October 17, 2011 #4 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Disney likes to package thier products, and Hawaii would be a natural tie-in to the DVC product there. If these cruises continue to be popular, I wouldn't be surprised if they eventually DCL goes the route of some other lines and flags a ship US so they can run cruises year round based out of Hawaii that nevre leave the islands.
