Rare craig01020 Posted October 29, 2021 #151 Share Posted October 29, 2021 (edited) I already booked three 2023 cruises (Royal and Celebrity) with refundable deposits, just in case I see something new from Royal that I can't resist.

I booked an April '23 Oasis...but I made sure to go refundable deposit, as I suspect we're going to move it to something in May (and hopefully more than 7 nights). Worth going with the refundable deposit this far out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springaussie Posted October 31, 2021 #153 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Port Of Brisbane has updated the bookings. Mainly deleted the cancelled sailings. Something that caught my eyes was Quantum's last booking in Brisbane 4 April 2024. This is around a fortnight earlier then Royal normally departs for Alaska. So maybe Quantum is off to Europe or going to Alaska earlier? This will not be not be known for another year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TP may be taking a longer route to Alaska? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodscruise Posted October 31, 2021 #156 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Quantum will be 10 years old in 2024 and will be due for her drydocking. Maybe going to Singapore first and then over to Alaska. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumping Cruiser Posted November 4, 2021 #165 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Noticed some 2023 RCL port bookings for Le Havre, France. It looks like Anthem will be based out of Southampton again, with Voyager also in Northern Europe, unless these are just placeholders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SummmerInKefalonia Posted November 12, 2021 #170 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Rhapsody of the Seas (New port bookings) Limassol (Cyprus): Weekly from 7 May to 29 October 2023. Haifa (Israel): 1/9, 8/9, 15/9, 19/9, 22/9, 27/9, 29/9, 4/10, 9/10, 13/10, 18/10, 23/10, 27/10, 1/11 & 6/11 2023. Piraeus (Greece): 13/6, 11/7, 8/8, 30/8, 4/9 & 11/9 2023. Notes: Even though it is booked weekly in Limassol from May 2023, I think they changed again the ship that will be homeported on Cyprus. Now it is again the Rhapsody as it was originally planned. Brilliance either will be deployed elsewhere or maybe they will use them both from Cyprus? Brilliance bookings from Haifa disappeared, but they still exist in Limassol and Piraeus. P.S. Jewel of the Seas' 25/9 & 13/10 2023 bookings in Piraeus list disappeared. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two of the early bookings are: Adelaide 11 Nov 2023 Melbourne 14 Nov 2023 Perhaps these are placeholders for a different ship. Any ideas which one? It can’t be Q class as they don’t go into Melbourne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think last year most showed up mid-week during the 'week of' that was on the deployment schedule. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any speculation what ship if they do? Im thinking radiance,they could bring another ship through the Panama to replace it in Alaska. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
