This is good to know. I'm stalking a cruise for the total eclipse in Spring 2024, so maybe one of the Mexican cruises will work out for that. 

April 3 2024 10 day cruise on the brand new Discovery Princess has the solar total eclipse while in Mazatlan.

Thanks for sharing. Interesting that there is still no mention of the new Sphere Class ship. Wonder if it's delayed or going to happen at all.


I am wondering EXACTLY that as well. I also have a sneaking suspicion it could go to another Carnival Corp brand like P&O UK, Costa or AIDA

I was hoping they would go through May of '24.

Same here.  We are waiting to see what the Majestic and Royal are doing in May of 2024.  Right now, the Majestic ends their schedule in Hong Kong and the Royal in Tokyo.

Get in line Buddy! My trusty TA is already on the job. Hmm ... wasn't planning on this one but it's a bucket list thing. Now I wonder if I have enough FCDs to cover this. If Alaska 2024 doesn't come out until early October I should be OK as we can purchase some more.

We are on a cruise in a month and I am bone dry on the FCDs.  I had two for each of us just two months ago.

unless i am missing something,  I see no Aruba, Bonaire or Curacao...or grenada and barbados on the 10 dayer or 20 dayer cruises

Seems a shocker if the case.  How could they drop all those islands?  What is it now, STT and SXM heavy and not much more?  IMO, the whole thing for the 10-nighters was to hit a bunch of islands and then a somewhat different bunch on the next go-round.

 

ETA:  The SKY eastern itinerary seems a complete bore to me with P Cay, G Turk, & A Cove.  All you get is SJU for a real port.  Seems like they just want folks to drink and spend money on their own properties.

 

The CB is doing more islands with its itineraries.

 

I like the idea of more Circle Caribbean voyages as you can head out for two weeks and not have the day back to FLL and then another day back to get south and less overdosing of P Cay.

 

Looks like you are correct in regards to Enchanted doing the 10-nighters.  Still, a variety of islands. 

 

Anyway, that is my 2 minute glance at it all.
