G&TQ Posted October 29, 2017 #1 Share Posted October 29, 2017 I have never booked a year out until last night. I booked for Mar 2019. So I now have two booked. I guess I am a cruise addict now. Finally get to cruise with my BFF and God son. Can't wait!!!!! Smooth water and full sails. G Sent from my Z981 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted October 29, 2017 #2 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Congratulations. It's fun to have cruises to look forward to. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micahs Grandad Posted October 29, 2017 #3 Share Posted October 29, 2017 We are now cruising to see the world and have found we need more time to research and plan. As a result we often have 3-4 booked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mediccruzin Posted October 29, 2017 #4 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Must be nice to book that far out. I always pay a premium for my cruises as I can not ask for time off no more than 6 weeks in advance. 4 years when I retire I can start book a year or more in advance.

jayscore Posted October 29, 2017 #5 Share Posted October 29, 2017 (edited) Another "plus" booking so far in advance is the price you pay. I booked a cruise last January for a cruise in April, 2018. So far, my VS cabin has gone up $600. I realize there are only ten of these suites, so maybe scarcity pushes the price up.:confused: Edited October 29, 2017 by jayscore content Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easyboy Posted October 29, 2017 #6 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Good for you! We also book far in advance too to secure our preferred cabin. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice thing about retiring is your not limited to 7 day cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evandbob Posted October 29, 2017 #8 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Nice thing about retiring is your not limited to 7 day cruises. Exactly. Can book B2B's 10 day, 2 weeks, 21 days or even longer. When doing the b2B's we also save on the airfare as it takes but 1 RT rather than 2. I'm jealous of people who can cruise Asia for months at a time! OP, enjoy your wait time!

grandmarnnurse Posted October 29, 2017 #9 Share Posted October 29, 2017 I always book one year out. I plan to book my January 2019 cruise as soon as I return from my January 2018 cruise. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RecoveryDude Posted November 1, 2017 #15 Share Posted November 1, 2017 I like to book way far out too ... get the best deals I have found! Plus better cabins and time to research excursions (I rarely buy Carnival's excursions). I have Jan 20, 2018 on Magic, September 17th on RCCL Harmony of the Seas, and January 17, 2019 on Magic (Will Turn Platinum on that cruise, YAAA!!) I have to have cruises to look forward to lol.
