CVU Posted April 9, 2015 #2176 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Hi Ski, Princess also does that one out of San Francisco too:eek: I have friends that have done it and they loved it, I plan on doing it in 2017, it is a 28 day cruise:cool: Carol:) [/quote We did a very similar itinerary in Jan/2009 on HAL Ryndam ship. It was a 30 night cruise, roundtrip out of San Diego. We had 4 days @sea to Hawaiian Islands, 6 days in the Hawaiian Islands, 5 days @sea down to the South Pacific, with port days in Raitai, Bora Bora (overnight for 2 days), Tahiti, Moorea, a day @sea, Nuku Hiva in the Marquesas, and 8 days @sea back to San Diego. We absolutely LOVED this sailing. The South Pacific is FANTASTIC. I would love to go back!! Unfortunately, RC does not offer any type of sailing like this. If you get a chance to do this, GO!! Sounds Great!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MADflyer Posted April 9, 2015 #2177 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Jewel has been confirmed to Civitavecchia and most itineraries and the TA sailings have been released. Rhapsody Barcelona to Venice is confirmed along with a Venice to Rome sailing prior to the October 27th TA from Rome to Port Canaveral. Most Venice sailings are also open on the RCI website.

Cruisingthesuitelife Posted April 9, 2015 #2181 Share Posted April 9, 2015 (edited) Where are you seeing the Jewel TA please. I am logged into the UK site and can only see Rhapsody. Julie I can see the Jewel Fort Lauderdale to Rome TA starting Apr 28 2016 on the UK site without logging in. However, can't see one back at the moment. According to cruisecal, it will be on 8th Oct but I can see a sailing in Europe past that on sale on RCI website :confused: I know cruisecal isn't definite but I can't see the Westbound TA at the moment.

Case1096 Posted April 9, 2015 #2183 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Same here, I don't see Jewel's TA back to the US. The Jewel TA Eastbound and Europe are live on cruising power. The November TA is visible but not bookable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pawmtweez Posted April 9, 2015 #2184 Share Posted April 9, 2015 I see that Rhapsody and Jewel are now online for Europe. It looks like they essentially swapped those two ships from what we were expecting when the European itineraries were first released. Is that right, or am I missing something?

CruzTigger19 Posted April 9, 2015 #2186 Share Posted April 9, 2015 (edited) If what I saw on the Royal Caribbean web site this morning is accurate, then there will be no 3 or 4 night cruises out of Port Canaveral by RCI from May 2016 until November 2016. :( Edited April 9, 2015 by CruzTigger19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snwwht Posted April 9, 2015 #2193 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Have been waiting for the 4 day April 24th from Ft Lauderdale to be released. Today with the rest of the releases it did not appear so I called Crown and Anchor.The girl could see it but when she tried to book it she said "that's strange it's showing as a pre- inagural for travel agents only?!" I agreed that it was strange given that Jewel is the last to be "redone" so now I'm wondering if they are planning different changes for Jewel in her dry dock?

Each of the Radiance Class ships has come out of dry dock with some differences to each other, so it is likely Jewel will also see some different venues, most likely which restaurants they will add and where they will be located. Royal Caribbean often does pre-inaugurals after dry docks, I remember they did it with both Grandeur and Vision a couple of years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuckyAshley Posted April 9, 2015 #2196 Share Posted April 9, 2015 When will April 2017 be on the US website? I only see through March but the UK website shows April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juiceman Posted April 9, 2015 #2198 Share Posted April 9, 2015 When will April 2017 be on the US website? I only see through March but the UK website shows April. They have been releasing April, 2017 slowly by ship. You can find it if you search by a specific ship, but you have to do it this way: Click on Plan a Cruise on the homepage Click on Search by Ship Click on the ship you want to look at Click on Any Month under Find a Cruise for that ship If April, 2017 is available for that ship, the month will be highlighted. That's how I found the sailings on the Adventure for that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MADflyer Posted April 9, 2015 #2199 Share Posted April 9, 2015 The Jewel of the Seas should still do the 4 night post-drydock and it should be open for sale to the public soon. Basically, they have given Jewel some of the elements of what would have been the Rhapsody TA. They have an error on the TA as Jewel no longer goes from Barcelona, but will sail from Civitavecchia direct. http://creative.rccl.com/Sales/Royal/Deployment/2016_2017/15043479_JW_2016_Europe_Deployment_Flyer.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
