There is one sailing on September 14, 2023 on the Jewel out of Cape Liberty to Greenland for 14 days. Would anyone know which deployment release date Greenland would be under? I haven't seen any information on another 14 Day. Also would love to see, like there used to be, longer Caribbean sailings out of Cape Liberty in October and November. Our group of friends always booked those. Now they only seem to be available in January and February. Grandeur doing 15n Boston to Greenland Sept 2024. It's available now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prices are actually reasonable on those sailings I looked at. Too bad, I have no desire to visit those ports in the middle of winter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soremekun Posted February 23, 2023 #1230 Share Posted February 23, 2023 (edited) I just emailed my travel agent to book me for April 2025 on Odyssey. Royal Caribbean opened up bookings just in time so I get full benefits of my Next Cruise certificate. Hopefully prices don't go crazy overnight.

I was just chatting with my travel agent. He is up looking for deals for his clients right now. Hope the prices hold for you til your agent gets into work tomorrow. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rest seem to be reasonable as you said Edited February 23, 2023 by ONECRUISER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In old days deposits refundable many Cruises I'd put cash down and hope for price go down or better deal on different sailing found ltr. And then Cruises you just know they will only go up. Now, little more careful when its $450 down nonrefundable each longer Cruise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gallagher123123 Posted February 23, 2023 #1236 Share Posted February 23, 2023 Looks like I was right about Grandeur doing a Tampa to Boston cruise similar to Serenade's this year. Major difference is that it goes to Labadee instead of Coco Cay, and there is a stop in Bermuda, making it a day longer. Interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In cold weather cruises families with young children are normally allowed in the Solarium at certain times, say 8 to 10am and 4 to 6 pm. I presume it will only be for the cold days at the beginning and end of cruise. The hours are posted with a sign at the entrance and probably in the app/cruise compass as well Edited February 23, 2023 by sgmn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did the Boston to Florida Oct Repo most yrs , use to be 13-14nites but kept getting shorter, 13, 12, 11, in resent yrs. Looked at Grandeur when first popped up but as its starting in Aug this Cruise doesn't qualify for the SOLO 340+ discount so to rich for me so Booked another 16n Panama Canal for Oct24 as it's cheaper. Last yr when first released got great price on this Sept Serenade Tampa-Boston, also able get better daily rates on other sailings making it into B4B Edited February 23, 2023 by ONECRUISER 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Anthem is one my Daughter and SIL Favorite Ships, I'm actually surprised this many different Cruises were released this week. Royal known for extending them out most years until April, May, June. Here I was ready to sit up long nite/nites and instead got what I wanted by 10pm EST... Though another got to have at a great rate and I'll find the time and money. This time of year is my Christmas! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, I can't say Anthem is one of my favourites but as chance would have it our last cruise was on her and our next two will be as well. As we both still work, it's still all about ship availability when we're able to travel. But I am really keeping everything crossed that she will be spending the winter on this side of the pond. I'd be among the first in line to book! 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was first time in New York and first time they ever spent 2+ weeks away just the 2 of them. Said Food and Service was Great and she knows, has been Cruising Royal since she was 7yrs old... Good Luck, hope you get the Ship! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SImilar to the Serenade this year but 1 extra day (Grand Caymen) and Haiti instead of Coco Cay. Yes @ONECRUISER...no DP340 but this will finally tick Grandeur off my Vision Class ship list (had to cancel last year's round trip from Barbados due to travel restrictions). The only Vision class I haven't done was Legend of the Seas but maybe I can sail on Marella Discovery 2 sometime in the future, If God Spares me! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say doing former Legend counts to check it off, good luck! Did Grandeur back in 2002 on a Couple 10niters, my first longer Cruises. Enchantment on couple 7niters were first Cruise took my Kids on back in 97 & 99, The 5 of us in a small OV. Had couple Vision Sailings canceled, then had Booked a Corner/Aft for her TA last Spring but Mother got Sick.
