Better to keep her in the Atlantic. well that is such a shame.

That leaves out Catalina Island and I have doubts that it could fit into Ensenada or many of the Mexican Riviera ports if any at all. Cabo is a tender port. Also, there is no current terminal out here that could handle this size ship. Won’t happen for many years if ever. Also, there’s nothing keeping RCI from doing cruises to Hawaii now with the NV. what is NV? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly I wish they would do more Quantum class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I a hearing more whisperings and even one of the captains has mentioned it.

Looks like she will be there until April 2025. We'll find out this November where she goes after that. A revenue TA is doubtful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still utterly shocked Royal would do this. Maybe they are figuring that the people who would want 7 day cruise will just book B2B 4/3 cruises. Again, does not make sense to me. but I AM CONVINCED of it now 🙂 - I was WRONG 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prices will be the highest ever seen. Those over the water cabanas at Coco Beach Club may hit 5 digit numbers. You may actually be able to take a Disney cruise for only a little more money. RCL's debt will be paid off by the end of 2024. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, yes, they will book short trips or a 3/4 B2B (as you suggested) if Utopia is that important to them. It won't matter to Royal, both ships will be full and this gets more guests to Cococay... a cash cow for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utopia is a utopia for the Royal bean counters. 🙂 I think the really takeaway here is that I should have never doubted @John&LaLa 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
