Any one know when eastward or western trans-canal cruise for 2025 are released?

To give you an idea of what to expect based on last year's events:

 

2024 westbound canal (Apr, Summit) was released on Nov 15, 2022.  We booked it on the first day it came out.  It was released a month earlier than I expected because I thought it would be released with the Caribbean sailings in mid-Dec 2022.  I think it ended up being released with the Alaska sailings.

 

I know that eastbound canal 2024 was not released in mid-Nov 2022.  I think it was released in mid-Dec right around the time the Caribbean sailings were released.

 

Here was the deployment schedule published by Celebrity on Nov 2 2022.  I think the actual deployment dates for Europe was a week later than published.

 

Here is a thread that followed the cruise sailings as they were being released: link

We left the Eclipse last week, and while on board asked one of the Future Cruise Sales staff about the 2025 Panama Canal transits.  She was rather vague but suggested October for a release of the dates.

 

We have done six full transits, and have thoroughly enjoyed each one.
