They have no time for a revenue repo - they only have 2 weeks to get to Singapore - Suez is taking 2-3 days including the waiting for a slot....so no time left for a repo inkluding any further stops! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the release date for Singapore was supposed to be towards the end of next month but it's disappeared from the deployment flyer so maybe they're rethinking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Norwaylady Posted June 27, 2023 #1857 Share Posted June 27, 2023 We are cruising X mainly, so we are most up to date on those sailings.... Any good advice of what the crystal ball of Alaska ships for 2025 will be? Will it be a big ship and a smaller ship? Thinking of Vancouver-Seward / Seward-Vancouver......

I Booked a Repo for this Fall just 6 months ago. 3rd one like this that less then a yr in my resent memory. Has advantages, can Book Flights and Hotels right away which Beats my other usual Fall Cruises that when Booked had 560 or more Days to go until my Ship's Sailed. Had lot of the 1.5-2yrs out Bookings changed/Canceled, less likely with less then a yr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Summer 24 - Southampton, UK Winter 24/25 - Singapore March 25 - Dry Dock Summer 25 - Alaska Winter 25/26 - Australia Do you think there will be an Asia -> Hawaii -> YVR/SEA repo after the Dry Dock leading to Alaska?

No I think it will be like Navigator and run with no passengers to the West Coast USA for the big Alaska launch. If Royal did take passengers from Singapore it would most likely be sold in 2 cruises with Tokyo as the turn around port. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booked my May 2023 transatlantic 29 days out. Probably had a few more last minute repo/transatlantics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess Anthem would replace one of the 2 in Australia. Or will we have 3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Spectrum going back into China my guess would be one Q class backfilling Spectrum and not going to Alaska just as Spectrum has never gone to Alaska, leaving two Q for Alaska. Three Q in Alaska seems excessive and hard to make work embarking on weird days. Just a guess on my part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tendering at Catalina on the 3/4 night cruises twice a week seems like it would burn out the crew pretty quickly. It's one thing to tender Q class occasionally or on longer cruises when needed in NZ but doing it so frequently every few days on a 3/4 rotation doesn't sound like a good plan.
