Even NCL has decided to park themselves up in Baltimore for the fall months. Millions of people are within driving range.

Those cruises are very popular in the Winter season. They'll keep either the Enchantment OTS or swap in a similar ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has little to do with popularity (virtually all ships are at/above 100% capacity regardless of home port) - it's all about the $. If they can make more money somewhere else, they'll home port there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springaussie Posted October 2, 2023 #455 Share Posted October 2, 2023 Radiance Of the Seas is booked into Astoria 27 September 2025. Has anyone noticed any other Alaska port bookings for the 2025 season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nabalab Posted October 3, 2023 #456 Share Posted October 3, 2023 8 hours ago, Jumping Cruiser said: Definitely! She is expected to return to NJ for Winter 25/26, based on a WB TA Port booking with destination marked as Cape Liberty. Of course not confirmed yet, but is there a "rumor" of when the Odyssey TA will be in Oct/Nov 2025... or even the departure port? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, that was definitely my first point of reference. 2024's TA leaves November 3rd. I'm thinking the one in Fall 2025 may leave earlier because (according to post #440) the ship will be in St Maarten on November 9th.

Probably a placeholder. She certainly isn't visiting St Maarten as part of her TA and it's unlikely they are starting off with the 11/12 day itineraries in November from Bayonne 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! As Odyssey is based in Civitavecchia (Rome) for Summer 2025, I would expect the WB TA to start here. There is a call for Odyssey in Villefranche on 22nd October and a call in Ponta Delgada (Azores) on 29th October. I think the TA will start earlier in 2025 than it does in 2024, probably around 20th October, and expect her to be in NJ by around 4th November. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

springaussie Posted October 4, 2023 #466 Share Posted October 4, 2023 Has anyone found Radiance or Serenade after the Northern Summer 2025 season? As I reported earlier Radiance appears late September 2025 in Astoria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaroleSP Posted October 7, 2023 #468 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Any updates as to when the 2025 spring, summer, etc. Cape Liberty departures will show? This time around, I want to make sure to book early (and often, haha) before the prices go nuts. I waited too long on my last few bookings & got caught in the crazy pricing.
