That's really going to limit ships into the fjords. 😞 I guess its back to research for the right ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to this article, the flex fuel engine will not be featured until the 5th (unnamed) Edge class ship. "The fifth Edge Class ship will be the first ship to feature this brand-new flex fuel engine, as well as additional storage and delivery systems, that will enable the ship to run off of three different types of fuel, including methanol.' https://cruise.blog/2023/03/celebrity-cruises-launch-first-flex-fuel-engine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the Viva and Prime this far are not fantastic favorites and cabin choices for families is abysmal and event he haven rooms are crowded space wise.

Based on more recent trademarks, my money is on ‘Celebrity Excel’ or ‘Celebrity Xcel’. I wonder if the new CEO, Laura, has had any influence on this and whether the 5th edge-class was going to be called something else under Lisa’s leadership, but Laura wants to put her own stamp on it.

LOL This thread is actually for Holland America, who usually release itineraries earlirt than RCG brands. These types of leaks only usually happen right before the deployment release, when Royal share the itineraries with specific TA’s to prep their websites. It is also likely that Royal’s Summer/Fall 25/26 itineraries are far from finalised. Edited August 16, 2023 by Jumping Cruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True. As Royal many times waits to release some/all Dates for new Ships could be while before we know pricing and hopefully by then those, and other Sailings will be somewhat reasonable.

Will RCI leave a ship too ? Infinity is doing the Canaries from Barcelona too, in November and December 2024. Don't think Royal have any left to leave, do they? Wasn't Anthem the last one outstanding and of course we know where that's going? Unless I'm missing one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the 24/25 Australia season, Quantum is planned to replace Anthem in China and Anthem will replace Quantum in Alaska for Summer 25. Anthem will then move to Australia in time for the 25/26 season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps the cruise market won't implode in China just as it hasn't (yet) in the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
