Looking at https://www.royalcaribbean.com/gbr/en/cruise-ships/itinerary-updates it looks like the following dates are cancelled:

 

• Anthem of the Seas June 4 to August 29, 2021: Instead of offering European sailings, Anthem of the Seas will now offer Ocean Getaways and British Isles itineraries from Southampton exclusively for UK residents.

Yep ... just had an email cancelling June 2021 Anthem sailing.

So now that Celebrity have joined the party with Silhouette ... RC next??? 

MSC announcement ... https://www.cruisecritic.co.uk/news/6000/ ... newest ship coming to UK for UK summer cruises.

Booked on Anthem from Southampton in June ... feel a bit in limbo ... will it go or not?? ... if not the same cruise or similar in 2022 are waaay more expensive and I’m date restricted with holidays this year.

If they announce these UK only cruises to nowhere that would be something I guess.

Just wish they’d announce something.

Nope, October 2020, the first crossing. I'm certain its a non rev, but he swears its a go.

Ooooh thanks. Will watch out for that too.

I had a TA on FB tell me he has a group of 40 balconies on an Odyssey October 2020 TA

 

Just sharing😉

Hmmmm ... I am hoping you mean October 2021 ... in which case maybe they are close to releasing this sailing to the public?? Thanks for the info.

Hi all.

Thanks for all the replies. Lots to think about. Sounds like trying to switch to 'freedom' is the way to go.

Thanks again.

Hi guys.

My previous cruise experience is limited to Royal Caribbean. I know how things work with them and have zero clue about all things P&O.

Today's question (I'm anticipating that there will be more) is centered around dining.

We're all signed up for traditional dining or club dining I think P&O call it. How would I go about requesting a table for 2 in the main dining room. Any tips?? Is this like winning the lottery?

Is the best option for getting a table for 2 switching to flexible dining and just waiting for a table to become available?

Thanks in advance for any advice you can fire my way.

We will be sailing on 'Britannia' if that helps.

Any other advice about anything is greatly received.

We can’t really complain this is still a lot earlier than we would have got it just a few years ago. Also, RC would rather get the deployments right now than have to change a ship around later on

Hi. Yeah I understand that ... and yes it is great getting releases earlier ... but I would be happy to wait a bit longer and have everything released in one go ... can then plan with all the info.

Tired of the drip drip cruise announcements.

Still no word on Indy or Explorer?

Still no Westbound TA on Odyssey?

Why don't they just release everything in one go?

Hi guys ... so I'm seeing a TA on Odyssey leaving PE on 17 April 2021.

Where is she expected to go after her season in Europe ... can I expect a TA back to PE later in 2021?

Thanks.

Yes, been on there 2 days. Just not open. But thanks

No probs. I thought it may have been old news.

Still no news on a second ship in the UK?

Not sure if its been mentioned already ...

Adventure of the Seas 18 night TA ... Galveston to Copenhagen is now showing ... Departs 21 April 21

I can book that on the TA site as well. 

You guys just beat me to it ... it up on the UK site now but doesn't seem fully loaded.

Sorry if its already been posted ...

The Harmony of the Seas TA is up on the UK site ... 12 nights departing PC on 04/11/21 ... one stop in Malaga only ... arrives Barcelona on 16/04/21.

Not sure if its fully loaded yet as lots of stateroom types are missing (boardwalk balcony for example) and prices do not seem right ... lead balcony prices shows as £793pp but when you click to book it rockets to £1334.00pp

Seems like another boring TA itinerary.

Adventure of the Seas will have 7 to 11 day sailings from Stockholm /   Bookable week of December 9th . 

Soooo does this mean there will be a TA on adventure from Texas to Stockholm?  

Don't spose you or the other TA experts can predict some sort of itinerary for that?

Thanks,

Not one single AN itinerary from Southampton in 2021 is the 14n Baltic.... I cannot believe they will leave that route empty - surely a 2nd ship from Southampton???  I have heard Radiance class (which is perfect for northern climate)  but which one is unallocated?

Wish they would get on and let us know.

There are a couple of eastbound TAs now showing on the UK site.

In addition to the Anthem sailings listed earlier ...

Vision of the Seas   Fort Lauderdale to Barcelona   19 April 2021

Rhapsody of the Seas   Tampa to Rome   10 April 2021

Waiting patiently for the different Eastbound TA (US to UK or Europe) ... I'm not really feeling the Anthem ones showing up so far.

25/4/21 Cape Liberty -Halifax, NS - Azores - Bilbao - Le Havre - Southampton

Thank you.

Do we know which other ship (if any) is coming to the UK?

Anthem out of Southampton loaded.

There is a nice new 'food and wine' cruise calling at Bordeaux/La Rochelle ....otherwise it is the usual itineraries

I dont see them ... UK site or US? 

Can you see the Anthem TAs?

Thanks.

Any ideas which other Ship is coming to the UK?

Thanks for all the info guys.

It'll probably show the TA of the ships that were "leaked" or already known (Harmony, Jewel, Rhapsody, Vision, and Odyssey). 

Hi. Thanks.

Do you remember the date for the Harmony Ta and the info for the Odyssey Ta (date and from where to where).

Are we expecting Eastbound TAs to show up from tomorrow? USA to UK and Europe?

Is there much info kicking about?

Thanks.
