[CroNich]

Just had a quick look at the cruise ship schedule, Voyager and Solstice are here again for the 2013/14 season which is great news!

Thats good news...It will give P&O Australia another run for the money.

Perhaps we will see another Carnival Spirit down this way to compete:D:D

There is a lot of empty cabins on the cruises for this season. See how many bargains come up this year.

I wonder how much P&O bookings have slowed down?

Prices at the moment are not enough to tempt me.

What about Royal Caribbean?

 

P&O's bookings must be slowing down, and getting harder for them to sell cabins.

They'll be giving away New Zealand cruises soon............if you purchase a set of steak knives :p

That's good news. I would love to cruise on the Solstice, but would prefer an itinerary that didn't just go around NZ.

 

Can someone please fill me in on how you find out information on the 2013/2014 season this far in advance?

I tried to book a family oceanview cabin on Voyager for Jan 2013 and they are already sold out (there is 8 of them) :(. I checked a website last night that had availability for this cruise as nearly 25% sold. That's not bad for a cruise that's still 15 months away. Just hope the prices drop a bit though :rolleyes:.

Hi Brossy,

 

Have you tried contacting RCCl directly about that Family Cabin? The reason I ask is because I recently tried to book a FOV cabin on the Celebrity Millenium for 2013 and the website showed them as all being 'sold out'. With research and a phone call to Celebrity, I discovered that they show them as Sold Out this far in advance because they don't want to sell them to parties of less than 5 people. If you are a party or 5+ you or your TA can ring and request them over the phone.

From my research it seems that RCCL work the same way.

If they don't manage to sell them all to large parties, they start relaesing them to smaller groups closer to the time of the cruise. Although I imagine that due to the family appeal of Voyager, this is less likely to happen than with Celebrity ships.
