FIFE1 Posted November 12, 2016 #1 Share Posted November 12, 2016 Although the brochure will not be out till mid/end of April. Given the new ships and some old favorites being handed back to Louis. I wonder whats ships will be placed in which ports? Will the Dream remain. Sailaway is always good with ships/ports and off course any new places on the normal itineraries. Even to pass a winters night lets give some suggestions, you never know Thomson may listen.Maybe even come up with a solution to Corfu airport mess when its time to head home from a great cruise.

Jakanne1 Posted November 12, 2016 #2 Share Posted November 12, 2016 I keep hoping for the Far East, Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, Malaysia, Indian Ocean. Plenty to choose from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(genuine query, not meaning to sound smart) Legend of the Seas was based in the Far East for a number of seasons before moving over to Thomson as Discovery 2. We sailed from Singapore to Hong Kong via Thailand and Vietnam and found it the perfect size Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suekay Posted November 13, 2016 #7 Share Posted November 13, 2016 Sorry. I misunderstood but it makes sense now. We love Vision class on Royal (probably our favourite of all ship types) Very favourite is Splendour now Discovery 1 as we like the sundeck outside the spa. Will be tempted by both Discoveries dependent on itineray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailaway487 Posted November 13, 2016 #8 Share Posted November 13, 2016 I think it's going to look something like this: Discovery 3 (Mein Schiff 1) - Palma on Saturdays Discovery 2 - Malaga on Sundays Discovery - Corfu Town on Fridays Dream - Palma on Tuesdays Dubrovnik - Celebration on Thursdays.

Colbrit Posted November 13, 2016 #10 Share Posted November 13, 2016 Would that mean no more ex-UK sailings? I've got my eye on next year's ones but the prices may be too high for me at the moment so was hoping to do one for summer 2018. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sailaway487 Posted November 13, 2016 #12 Share Posted November 13, 2016 they said the mein schieff ships aren't gonna be discovery 3 and 4 They did say that originally but it's been listed as Discovery 3 on Villefranche's schedules. I did wonder if they're perhaps just using that as a provisional name for now until the official name is used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galaxy Posted November 15, 2016 #14 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Hello everyone. Yesterday was a ship booked in a iceland port,the ship was named *D*. i took a closer look and the ship was 69130 brt and took 2000 + passengers. as i know from last time it was a little * secret* So maybe TUI Discovery is to be seen in N.Europe and UK 2018? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be amazing if that is true! And also quite surprised that they are putting one of their newest and largest doing ex-UK. :D If that is the case, I wonder if Malaga has been dropped or if there is going to be a further addition to the fleet we are yet to know about? Another RCL ship perhaps? Edited November 15, 2016 by Sailaway487 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vitalsign Posted November 15, 2016 #18 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Grandeur of the seas? I think any transfer over will be a Vision Class ship this is RCIs oldest after Legend joins Thomson and as with Dream has suffered a very large hole in its hull in the past and a bad fire!!!!

Colbrit Posted November 17, 2016 #25 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Great news I thought it would be strange that they would dump ex-UK sailings. How long do we have to wait until Summer 2018 is launched? Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
