2019-20 Caribbean 7 day itineraries are out

[Ashland]

December 11

Very interesting...I always thought it was March of the prior year. Did something change or was I wrong?

My son in law encouraged me to sign up so here I am. Loved our RC Oasis of the Seas cruises. Looking forward to learning more here and booking our next cruise.

 

 

Welcome to our club.

RCI changed things up, maybe due to competition or the intro of NRD fares, but they moved up some of the itinerary deployments this year.

Glad I found this thread, thanks to my friend Bill. Not sure what I want yet, so the rest of the day I'll be studying up for tomorrow. :)

Any 2019 transatlantics out yet?

No. We will have to wait until Europe is announced or else see if they are included in the Spring 2018 release.

Kind of thought it was a shot in the dark. We got hooked on the idea of a TA following recent threads from RCL and X cruisers.

 

Thanks :cool:

We are hooked on them! Very affordable, plus you get to see a little bit (or a lot, depending on your budget and time allowance) of Europe. We have gone on two now and have one booked for 2018. We usually spend about a week in Europe pre-cruise. We prefer West-bound so we gain an hour of sleep most nights of the crossing instead of losing an hour of activity during the day as in the East-bound. Plus, with Air2Sea the airfare is also very affordable.

Thanks for sharing this in advance. Two ships meet what we are looking for during Ontario March break 2020. Fingers crossed pricing will not be insane.

Any ideas when we might see about 6 or 8 night Caribbean from FL (like Freedom is doing in 2017 and Adventure is doing in 2018)?

[Ladysilver]

Thanks for the heads up! :D

Thanks so much...Where might I find a list or post with all the new updated deployments listed thus far?

Love that early C and A access. A lot of the sailings are now available to book online:)

Prices are high! So much for early booking?

Thanks so much...saw this list...thinking there might be more. Any idea when and what will be released next?

[pspercy]

Liberty stays in Galveston which is OK but nothing but the same old itineraries. No attempts to try anything new.

Maybe Enchantment will break out of the mould beyond the single 9dy offering in November next year.

Not holding my breath:(

I agree 100%. Prices are about $200 more per person for an inside cabin on what we have paid previously when booking early. I will hold off to see what happens when the other older ships are released, otherwise I will wait til the other cruise lines post their cruises so I can compare. Disappointing.

Actually was able to find a good deal on the Villa Suite for Thanksgiving 2019! Woot Woot

[flyguyjake]

Sweet! I was able to move our April 19 Villa Suite sailing to May 19 and saved $8K!!!

Prices are very high compared to the last new itinerary release.

 

Just booked Freedom a b2b from San Juan in June 2019 and it cost £1300 more than what we booked it for next May... we only cruise once a year usually a 14 nighter or 2 x 7 nights.

There were no freebies, but I did ask for onboard spend and received $50 per stateroom each week....

[LonestarV]

Glad I'm not the only one underwhelmed with early access pricing. Wait and see mode for us. :(
