Another_Critic Posted October 24, 2022 #2252 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Probably time to move the booking talk to a new thread to keep this thread "clean" for ship construction progress? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Current gen O class and Icon class are built in different yards. Biker, who wonders if the Turku yard has welding issues. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisetorelax44 Posted October 24, 2022 #2257 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Booked my Oceanview balcony for 1/27. A little less than $4k for the two of us, including the diamond plus discount. We usually sail on casino cruises, so we figured, why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topanga49er Posted October 24, 2022 #2258 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Is it me or are all the cabins booked already for Spring Break, Thxgiving, Xmas and New Years 2024? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topanga49er Posted October 24, 2022 #2259 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Hi. to Lloyd 555 or someone else: Are the outside aft Corner suites larger as they go up; the opposite of Wonder? Hard to tell by pix. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deliver42 Posted October 24, 2022 #2260 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Heck, I'm looking at Feb, 2025 and it's showing all the aft balconies as sold out. Forward is no extra charge, and mid ship is $38.00 extra. This is for a regular balcony, and they are only allowing deck 12 by the Vitality Spa.

It was booked. At 1:30 it was available to be booked. Not long after it was gone. For those seeing everything they are interested in being sold out, add a third person to your room and it opens a lot of categories back up for booking.

What is happening with the inventory is the following. There are very few double occupancy cabins D2 and D4. TA's are allowed to block space (not specific room) When they do this Royal pulls the same number of cabins from inventory so that they can fulfill their obligations for that group space. That's why you will suddenly see an entire deck or one side of the deck disappear or in this case all the aft cabins. There are a lot of sailings that actually look sold out...like the first sailing. There are plenty of cabins left but Royal isn't showing them. The space is held in a group...I know, I'm holding 16 spaces in what looks like a sold out category but I can still book it and when a client books a 2D for example they end up booking a 2D guarantee and then Royal assigns it from one of the cabins they are holding 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not many want to travel with a third in their room or add a fake guest and have them be a no show...prices are already high enough. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eventually they will figure it out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On all ships other than Icon it is only doubles. Icon has a couple categories where group rates are available for triples and quads 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
