Used to be good for one-way international but their website was not as user friendly last time I needed to check and you have to phone which isn’t nearly as convenient for checking options of dates and cities. Other trick is to book fall and spring TA and RT airfare. Yea I asked my TA who said cant checked until 11 months out. So june of next year I can ask what rcl charges. Lol. I sure will look if a fall TA comes out for PC. This one just dropped last wednesday. I dont expect the balcony price to stay so well priced. Hoping for a good airfare, fingers crossed. So far best I can check is for next may to get a idea. Going to be hard to wait to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well plenty of time to work out the options and I presume you have refundable fare so good luck with plans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have a credit card that gives airmiles? I usually use those for international travel. Air2Sea doesn’t really have the deals they used to. You probably have time to research on some good card deals. A lot, you need to spend so much in X amount of months, but if you have any final payments coming up on cruises, it’s a good way to get quite a bit of miles. I always pay my cards off every month.

Not too many final payments coming up. Trying to move next year so cleared my calendar. But that's a idea, though not sure I want a new credit card. Mine gives pts for anything. Generic. And a Kroger card for kroger gas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I booked a really good deal on Delta first class one way Orlando to Barcelona. The next day it went "poof"....happy I punched the "buy" button when I did. 😮 And agree on the air miles. 🙂 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may wait and book the 8/30/2025 Brilliance TA onboard.... Thoughts? I just saw that! My TA was given wrong information and I decided to apply my NextCruise certificate to a different sailing so it wouldn’t expire. However not upset with him as I am not surprised. Plus the Greenland cruise is currently more than I want to pay so I am glad I went ahead and booked the Indy crossing. I will keep an eye on Greenland though in case the price comes into range of what I am willing to pay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just went ahead and put down my deposit on the one I had put on hold. Very excited!! We are still hoping for Boston to Boston with Greenland for September 2025.We would consider an Oceanview, Balcony, or Junior Suite if that itinerary is similar for 2025 as it is for 2024 on Jewel. I looked at the Brillance deck plan. It looks like all Junior Suites are aft and mid-ship on deck 10. Is that correct? None are forward cabins? And all are on deck 10? The reason I ask is we would consider a Junior Suite guarantee if we know we would not be assigned a forward Junior Suite (prefer aft but mid-ship okay too).

Prices are sick for that September 2024 sailing, Just a regular Balcony is over 7 Grand, if prices are anything like that for 2025, you will pay well over 10 Grand for a JS. At those prices just aren't worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I added the next leg, 10 days Mediterranean to greece ends in rome. So now I have to fly home from rome. Never saw athens and thought no time like the present. Yes maybe a TA in the fall from rome I can find idk. I'm not getting younger. Didnt feel comfortable while my parents were alive going very far.
