Deployment 2018-19 booking season begins

[mommykim]

Vision arrives in Miami on 10/31/18 from her TA and is now popping up in LA on 11/29/18

 

I see nothing in the LA Calendar for December so this is likely to be a one-time deal en route to somewhere else. Australia is likely.

Now that's intriguing.

More chance of Vision going to Australia then California.

Please don't burst our bubble or sink our ship with that kinda talk ;)

Maybe Vision will take up the Brisbane routes that Legend did.

Or, could this be an 'around the world' cruise?

 

Doubtful for RCI, but I would sign up for that in a heartbeat!

Actually, ships used to "winter" in Los Angeles and do the Mexican Riviera run, where the weather on Mexico's west coast is not quite so steamy from October-April. Vision was seasonal when it first arrived, early this century, as was Rhapsody before her, and Song of America before that.

 

And the Nordic Prince and Song of Norway before that.

It could also well be that San Diego or San Francisco will be her new winter home port, and maybe LA is just a common port of call.

Those were the days. We have so many great memories from our cruises on the Left Coast.

I only see that date.

 

Do you think Mariner and Vision could be trading places?

[springaussie]

My first guess is Oasis Class to Asia.

Royal Caribbean will pull one of the Oasis Class ships off sale in Florida to do.

Asia is not ready for Oasis Class

 

We already know Quantum 4 is going to China

My theory. Ovation replaces Explorer with Aus and Alaska. Explorer replaces Mariner in Singapore/China. Quantum 4 replaces Ovation in China

We here in Brisbane won't say no if she's going begging ;):D:D:D. Even if she is unable to turnaround in the Brisbane river at Portside quite happy to be bused to Fishermans Is for the time being..... Anyone in the know of what size cancels out docking at Portside ..... Sun sisters dock there they are 261 mtrs give or take, Vision is 279mts.... draught if it matters in this case Sun sisters are deeper... :)

I really hope you're right. We've talked about Q Class in Alaska for two years on CC... I feel a Q Class ship in Alaska would destroy the competition! Just imagine chilling out in Two70 or the massive glass Solarium while going through the inside passage or circling at the Glaciers.... let alone Northstar/etc

Magic!! :D:D

(Now wouldn't it be wonderful if they brought back DD for the Alalska runs :o;))

[ARCruisinNana]

Why would they trade out Mariner for Explorer when they've already done so many modifications on Mariner?

modifications are easily "unmodified";)

I actually think they're replacing Mariner with Voyager for Singapore.

The Singapore to Shanghai sailing on 3/19/18 for the Mariner is showing as sold out on the RCI website.

[Ethanol95]

Actually if can't be voyager. Mariner was the main ship homeported. Voyager and ovation/quantum class is additional seasonal capacity. If they would change ship, it is most likely for them to upgrade capacity on a yearly basis, not so much seasonal.
