Rare island lady Posted June 10, 2017 #101 Share Posted June 10, 2017 They have those so called Ocean View balconies on that ship -I wonder what you can see from there? LOL!! That was my first thought. ;) Those bump out JS cabins have a nice big balcony with lots of sea to see!! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruznation Posted October 25, 2017 #102 Share Posted October 25, 2017 You are probably safe, though a ship is likely to leave the fleet in 2019 with the arrival of Passion. Why does a ship have to leave the fleet when a new one is launched? Is there a shortage of officers and crew? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted October 25, 2017 #103 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Why does a ship have to leave the fleet when a new one is launched? Is there a shortage of officers and crew? Doesn't have to leave. For years RC had 22 ships in the fleet, now they have 24. I suspect their bean counters have to look at the big picture and whether there are itineraries for the smaller ships where they can still make enough money to make it worthwhile to keep them.

Some of the home ports, like Baltimore, will only accommodate a smaller ship. Baltimore is so convenient. :) There's only 4 Vision class ships left and with two more going on the block choices are dwindling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the best of worlds, I would love to see them sell MJ instead...and keep Rhapsody to do the 3/4 here in PC. Already down 2 of the 6 sweet sisters...sad to see them go. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the best of worlds, I would love to see them sell MJ instead...and keep Rhapsody todo the 3/4 here in PC. Already down 2 of the 6 sweet sisters...sad to see them go. :( I don't fancy MJ and your suggestion about Rhapsody would certainly interest us to come back to Cape Canaveral.

north29 Posted October 25, 2017 #110 Share Posted October 25, 2017 With only mega ships on the menu, I hope not, as we really dislike the BIG ships. But when the cost of maintenance/old deco/cabins(not meeting expectation of cruisers on the ship gets potentially tooo high most likely she will have to go.

Yeah...Island Lady's perfect world PC home port ships: Oasis the same. Vision class back again for 3/4 night, replacing MJ. Voyager class (or even more perfect...Radiance class!) for 10/11 night cruises. Sigh...wish I had that magic wand. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simply going from historical trends both in terms of the size of the fleet, age of ships and overall market trend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
