JYD Hawkeye Posted February 25, 2013 #1 Share Posted February 25, 2013 So if I read the schedule right on www.cruisett.com, RCCL will not have a ship out of Galveston from May - November of this year. Is that right and does that happen every year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lady_cruiser Posted February 25, 2013 #5 Share Posted February 25, 2013 NCL will go out of Houston But to get back to the original subject, will NCL be year round? Or just seasonal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

austinlw Posted February 25, 2013 #7 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Most of the Royal Caribbean ships on the Atlantic side of the US head to Europe in April, and that includes their Galveston ship (Voyager, now Mariner, and next year Navigator).

So far, they only have it running until April. We will see, but I would think it will also be part time in Houston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuizer2 Posted February 25, 2013 #9 Share Posted February 25, 2013 But to get back to the original subject, will NCL be year round? Or just seasonal? If you are looking for year round ships, Carnival has two. However, one of the ship was recently disabled and will be down for repairs for a few months.

While I have cruised on Carnival before Royal Caribbean is my favorite. I was just hoping that you knew if another cruiseline, beside Carnival, would be based year round in the Houston/Galveston area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that right and does that happen every year? Yes, I will be on the Mariner this year as she sets sail for Asia. Like New Orleans and a few other ports, Galveston is seasonal. Only open in the Winter and Spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, seasonally NCL, Royal Caribbean and Princess will be in town. I believe Disney might be there seasonally also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
