How is Port Canaveral near Utah Jackie, did you move? 

We just put money down to have a home built in Trilogy Orlando.  We will be moving in a year.  😁😁

I know! I saw those! Tempted. But, for only the two of us, that’s a little steep. GS is half that. 
 

Saw you were booked on this one, hope to meet you in the SL😜, if not sometime before.

SL is going to be crowded 😉

We might add the 7 day Western Mediterranean right before this crossing.  We just haven't pulled the plug yet

Booked this cruise today! It’ll be our honeymoon as we’re getting married early October 2021. We opted for a sea facing balcony on deck 11 in the end (thought about booking a suite) as we can spend the extra money on a couple of Disney days in Orlando at the end as I’ve never been to the States.

Very excited but seems so far away!

Do the Rhapsody out of Venice instead

I currently have this cruise on hold, just need to pull the trigger.  

Anyone know any good deals with agents for onboard credits or gratuities?  🙂

There are great group rates available on some categories

How do I find who has secured group rates?

Internet seaches, referrals from friends, etc.

Thanks, did a search online and came up empty.

Being new to Royal it is difficult to figure all this out.

You won’t find group space advertised on the internet as it is not supposed to be advertised.  You need to call places and ask them their prices and if they have group space available.  Know what Royal is charging, travel agencies will be at the same price, less if they have group space.

Not necessarily.  We just returned from the Brilliance of the Seas TA yesterday.  We flew from Newark to Barcelona for $102/pp one way.  The 15 night cruise was $705/pp.  And while we love the Caribbean, it doesn't hold a candle to Europe.  

We fly from Newark. Can I ask which airline gave you that great price and was it direct?  Thanks!

It was Tap Portugal. It was Newark to Lisbon and then Lisbon to Barcelona.

I also have a cabin on hold for this cruise. Awesome group prices!!! Just not sure about the itinerary only having one port though. Decisions decisions

Wow! Is that a non rev rate or via a site like fareboom?

No I’m not a non rev. It was booked direct with TAP.

Is it possible that they released this cruise without all ports locked in?  Have they every added ports to a TA in the past after initial release?  Wondering if the longer duration is so that they can squeeze in a couple of ports in the future.

Thank you!  I will quit searching online.

Hello fellow Buckeye!

I was wondering this as well, I did ask my TA and she said that they could but probably would not.  Course I am not officially booked yet either.  Still looking for those elusive group rates to save a little.
