Oceania Ultimate Sale

[mrlevin]

Didn't FdR recently state that he did not believe in "price to fill;" rather he believed in "market to fill?"  So, what is going on with the Oceania Ultimate Sale plastered all over this boards?  Is he going after quick cash?  Or, is he preparing for the departure of the "R" ships?

So every time they have  a sale you will assume they are selling  a ship?

I'm going to guess that you don't regularly cruise with Oceania. 

The "ultimate sale" is hardly "ultimate." Rather, it is the regular holiday period sale O does throughout the year - perhaps extended a bit longer.

As for "price to fill," remember that what FDR may say about NCL may have little to do with NCLH's Oceania or Regent lines. Nonetheless, this version of the O Ultimate (the current catchphrase) Sale regards about 60 (?) cruises. Make of that what you want.

As for "getting rid of" the R ships: The $100 million Oceania NEXT total interior renovation of all four R ships demonstrates that these proven niche-serving ships ain't going anywhere.

Flatbush, thanks for the education; I do sincerely appreciate it.

Correct me if I am wrong but I think only 3 of the R ships have had their NEXT renovation, Nautica is still waiting for hers and I am hoping that this will be done before we sail on her.

Nautica was supposed to get its NEXT makeover earlier this summer (last of the four R ships). Because of Covid-19, It has been rescheduled to summer 2021.

I'll tell you another CC story. About 6 years ago, we were booked on a 13 night Celebrity European cruise and through the Roll Call and joining tours, started emailing back and forth with someone who was organizing tours. She also lived in CA but told me she grew up in Brooklyn. Through our chats, although she was 8 years younger, not only did we discover we also went to the same grammar but, when we told each other our maiden names my response to her was.....you're brother was my first crush. She emailed back the next day saying Paul remembers yes.  As a result, not only did we tour together, the four of us ate dinner together every evening. When we told others how we met, many thought we were making the story up. Six years later, we are still in contact!!
