Deployment 2018-19 booking season begins

[CRUISEBOY305]

Was told up to the 6th May 18. Best to give them a call.

 

Just called the Diamond Plus desk, she showed the 5/6/18 sailing which is the repo. She had no clue why they haven' t released the Freedom sailings yet or why that sailing is the only one showing. Still not bookable.

I get the email from RCL about new 2018 4-6 night caribbean sailings. Check out Indy. One sailing from Sept-Nov and it ends on Thanksgiving Day. Is there any logical reason there would only be one sailing? And as hard as I tried on my new Macbook Pro had to fire up my 2008 iMac to even be able to do a mock booking.

I read that Indy was due for dry dock in 2018, but I don't know the dates.

Searching for cruises in December 2018 on Grandeur OTS. The cruise calendar website shows a 9-night Dec 13. The RCL website only shows 2 12-nights Dec 1 and 22. Is this already chartered??? Or just not released yet for booking??? Dec 9 is our preferred cruising date.

Invoice states 6D, it's an aft on deck 9. Gets very confusing when trying to work them out. I also booked the Allure in a Boardwalk cabin. The difference between a 4I and 2I is position to aft with view of aqua theatre I think.

Hopes this helps.

Thanks for info. I'll swat up on the deckplans

It's very hard to look up open rooms on my favorite page that scans the sea.

There seems to be "missing" cruises for several ships. The Oct 4, 2018 Anthrm sailing is not showing up either.

A lot of these "other sites" are not handling the new categories very well

[John&LaLa]

I really hope this means they send Mariner or Voyager back to the US.:)

Let's worry about getting Oasis V to PC first. 😉

Charter business must be booming

Sigh.

Maybe they've figured a way to negate that little tool. 😉

I noticed that too. When I type in a room number it says deck plan is not available. I hope they'll fix it soon, that site is awesome to check free rooms.

I noticed that as well. It looks like on the OA class they now only can monitor 1 of the OV balcony categories.

I booked our first aft cabin on Adventure this morning for Oct 2018. Now all the Oct 2018 AOS sailings are showing "sold out". I sure hope that's a fluke!

Been on Royal site all day, they seem to be doing some maintenance so shows multiple cruises sold out, they come back available after...

Super excited as I have booked all my cruises for 2018 now! And two inaugurals to boot (one on RCCL and one on X).

 

March 2018 - a short cruise on Brilliance for my birthday

April 2018 - Symphony Inaugural!!!!!

Sept 2018 - Oasis

Nov 2018 - Anthem

Dec 2018 - Celebrity Edge Inaugural (got one of those over the top Infinite balcony rooms).

 

Now only one more cruise to watch for and that is Hawaii in the Spring of 2019. Dang, I sure do have a lot of money tied up in cruise deposits - eeeekkkkk!
