LrgPizza Posted August 3, 2015 #3 Share Posted August 3, 2015 I knew you would be excited about this! You cannot let this interfere with your plans to sail the MSC Seaside though. I want you to explore and report on that for me. Ha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want you to explore and report on that for me. Ha! Oh no - definitely not. The Seaside is the next 7-day we are booking ... but now that the Epic will be doing 3- and 4-nighters ... :D :D :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LMaxwell Posted August 3, 2015 #5 Share Posted August 3, 2015 It is doing the 3 and 4 night cruises? That's a pretty big "one up" for that market. Majesty of the Seas doesn't stand a chance out of PC in that case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Majesty of the Seas doesn't stand a chance out of PC in that case. I know. I do like the Majesty. We've done it a few times for short getaways, but it doesn't compare to the Epic, IMO.

Winston Wolf Posted August 3, 2015 #13 Share Posted August 3, 2015 It is doing the 3 and 4 night cruises? That's a pretty big "one up" for that market. Majesty of the Seas doesn't stand a chance out of PC in that case. Main competition will be Disney Dream which does 3-4 night Bahama cruises year round out of PC.

Rare Laszlo Posted August 3, 2015 #14 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Norwegian Epic will return to Florida in November 2016 after more than a year in Europe and will homeport in Port Canaveral. It will operate three-, four-, six- and seven-day cruises to the Bahamas and the Eastern and Western Caribbean in the winter but will return to Europe in the summer. Norwegian Spirit will replace Norwegian Epic as the brand’s year-round European ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coastalbreezes Posted August 3, 2015 #15 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Such exciting news! Epic is the one ship I have wanted to sail on for a long time and Port Canaveral will be so convenient for me. Tracy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiser Bruiser Posted August 3, 2015 #16 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Main competition will be Disney Dream which does 3-4 night Bahama cruises year round out of PC. Except Epic will be much cheaper, especially for folks like me who sail solo a lot. I was going to book a trip to Universal Orlando with a travel buddy for November this year. Now we will wait for February 2017 so that I can add a trip on Epic to my Universal vacation. This is such excellent news! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisercl Posted August 3, 2015 #17 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Very sad news for those of us who had EU cruises on the Epic cancelled but very happy that the Epic will be loved when she comes back to the USA. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SissasMomE Posted August 3, 2015 Author #18 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Look forward to the seaside too but that is years away. The Epic, not sure about her... You're close. Try it for a 3 or 4 nighter. We already have our regular 2016 cruise on the Escape, and 2017 we are doing Sandals. So, the next "regular" cruise will be on the Seaside in early 2018, but I'm definitely getting a couple short ones in there in between! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david_sobe Posted August 3, 2015 #19 Share Posted August 3, 2015 This is bitter sweet for me. I love the idea Epic is back in the states in Florida but disappointed she is not coming back to Miami. I would gladly trade Getaway for Epic in Miami. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dizneydawn Posted August 3, 2015 #20 Share Posted August 3, 2015 So excited! We sailed on the Epic last November, BEST. CRUISE. EVER! We were so sad it was not going to return to Carib this fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hondu Posted August 3, 2015 #21 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Sailed the Epic twice solo. Will definitely be interested in the transatlantic return cruise.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerrytens Posted August 3, 2015 #22 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Yay!!! Homeport is Port Canaveral! :D:):p I know, I know, I know! I'm so excited:D I was so upset that she left North America that I booked a Med cruise on her but now I get to look forward to another sailing on her!
