Not LB, but though I enjoyed our Beyond cruise, for my husband it's a deal breaker that there is no higher deck forward facing lounge to sit and watch the waves. Some dislike the infinity balconies also. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMHO - not enough bars; all decor the same and drab; lots of wasted space; not a comfortable chair on the ship: IVs are pointless; but loved the 4 dining room concept. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks to both of you. I will definitely be doing more research before making this decision. So far, I don't see an itinerary that would work in 2024 on Edge. Still trying to be hopeful that the RC itineraries will be what we are looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OfTheSeasCruiser Posted November 4, 2022 #233 Share Posted November 4, 2022 (edited) Just realized that Utopia will be debuting in Spring 2024 (as of now....I wouldn't be surprised to see a delay), so she should technically be included in this year's deployment release. I don't imagine they will delay as long as they did for Icon since she isn't a new class. I'm curious if she'll head to Asia perhaps, in place of Wonder's original schedule, or if cruising in the region still hasn't rebounded enough.

Personally I would not buy the NCC of you were planning on them specifically for that as you have to pick a sailing within 60 days in order to get the OBC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that the $100 is a huge deal. The smaller deposit is nice though. I'm accumulating a large amount of money on RCL's balance sheet, with about 20 cruises booked. Guess I'm doing my part to help with their liquidity issues! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While deposits are listed in their SEC filings, those funds are generally escrowed and can’t be used for anything else (so they are available in case of bankruptcy/liquidation for refunds). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
