Ah, the old bush lawyer. I worked for many years with a bloke from up around Lithgow & who had worked on the railways who was always on about bush lawyers, bush carpenters etc. He also had a saying for anyone who was neatly attired, saying they were dressed up like a pox-doctors clerk 🙂

It looks RCG are changing their FCC credit system.

Your credit on a canceled cruise can be transferable to someone else and combined with another credit.

Also it looks like , if your cruise  is canceled you get the 125%  and it can be transferred within 48 hours of being notified.

So there’s no waiting 2 months to have it processed. Once you are notified you should be able to put a hold on a cabin.

Have a look at the tail uncle Les  .      ( the cat )      it looks like a snake.

Someone is keeping a eye on the fleet in the Caribbean.

Double points have been extended to 30 September 2022

 

 

[Chiliburn]

The 2022-2023 season should be out in 5 weeks.

Quantam is booked in Brisbane and we should expect Ovation to be in Sydney .

That leaves Sydney short a ship?

Voyager will be in Stockholm,Radiance and Serenade will be it Miami.
And we should find out where Wonder and Spectrum will be?

Good to know. We recently received email that our FCC (from cancelled Mar 2020 cruise) has been extended for use by 30-Sept 2022 (book by 30-Apr 2022), so hopefully they will extend again to cover the 22-23 season, or perhaps bring ships downunder for winter season 2022??

[woodscruise]

Chiliburn, I think Australia might be a ship short, as the above calendar has fall/summer 2022/23 for both China phase 2 and Singapore. My guess will be Spectrum to Singapore and Wonder stays in China, (or reverse) as these are the only two ships from RCCL in the Asian region. The only other guess is if a ship is moving to the West Coast America and it does a summer season in Australia.

It hard to know but I think RC will pull out of China as it’s to volatile.

With all the warships in the area there won’t be any room for cruise ships.

Norway,Germany,UK,Holand,France,India,Canada and more are going to have warships deployed.

 

My thoughts are they may have spectrum in Singapore. Singapore has a good relationship with China and they could fly there .I believe the Chinese have to have a exit visa.

I know there was speculation that Freedom may be moved to California as there was a couple of bookings for it.

All the freedom class have bookings in the Caribbean now I believe.

All the radiance class have bookings ?

 

And then Anything larger than Radiance can’t go through the Panama Canal as they are to high.

 

Maybe Ovation may go to LA???

With the new and wider gates at the panama canal crossing, may-be they can.  Don't know about height limitation.   However, it's probably a high price to pay for the cruise company with no or fewer paying passengers on board.

The cost to transit the Panama Canal would be much less if the ship doesn't have passengers. For passenger ships, the charge is determined by a certain amount per occupied berth, and a much lower amount for unoccupied berths.

I think the problem the is Bridges of America with a height limit (it is about 61.3 metres or 201 feet.)

I’m not a expert but reading posts from people who seem to know say it’s the night of the ships passing under the bridge of America’s.

Both voyager and Freedom class are to high. Not by much,4 meters or so.

 

Here’s a nice pic of Quantum.
