Ashland Posted October 26, 2011 #26 Share Posted October 26, 2011 So glad to hear the INDY is coming back to FLL..I have said on many of my posts that there would be a possibility in the future and I was keeping my fingers crossed...We have sailed 3 times on her 8 night Eastern Caribbean itinerary and was on her last one out of Port Everglades..She is my favorite ship..can't wait to book her..Sailed last March on 8 night LOS out of MIA...but it just wasn't the same...Welcome home INDY...:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champagne suzy Posted October 26, 2011 #27 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Please Please let Indy be replaced by Oasis class! The demand from Southampton is high so if the Explorer comes over it would be a lot less cabins for uk people to book so maybe loose some to other lines? Keeping everything crossed, :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enyliram Posted October 26, 2011 #28 Share Posted October 26, 2011 They have posted the sailings on RCCL site now. i see the sailings but not the prices.

Keeping everything crossed, :D Won't be Oasis or Allure. First a terminal would have to be built to handle 12,000 passengers at once coming and going. Also ports would have to be upgraded to handle a ship that size. This will not happen in a years time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashland Posted October 26, 2011 #30 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Indys 8 night will include St Kitts instead of St Thomas which was on her original 8 night Eastern route..Thoughts on this as St Kitts is a new one for me ? When will her prices be released ? And I hope all the chatter about wanting her back will not send her prices sky high because then she would be competing with the Oasis/Allure...Would they really keep all three of those ships sailing out of PE or who would go and where ?

The Indy isn't that much larger than the Navigator which is doing that itinerary this year. The Indy is just replacing the Navigator which is moving to NOLA.

littlesteelo Posted October 26, 2011 #32 Share Posted October 26, 2011 At least she is only going over for the winter, she is back here in april. Also, sending over another freedom class kind of defeats the point of taking Indy away. Hopefully we will get one of the sunshine class when they arrive :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for being biased.. but..comparing the INDY to the Navigator won't work with the INDY fan club as it's not about the size ;):D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

truffles2 Posted October 26, 2011 #39 Share Posted October 26, 2011 No pricing yet and not yet listed on other sites. Also, departs on Thanksgiving Day which means airfare will be horrendous. Wonder if they ever think about things like that when planning:confused: and setting dates?:rolleyes: Obviously not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean Boy Posted October 26, 2011 #40 Share Posted October 26, 2011 I read the title of the thread and thought exactly that. I guess it would be a freedom class ship to keep in tune with the British market. Would be great if Oasis "nipped" over for a while :p You really think that RCI is going to reposition Indy back home just to send another Freedom class ship back over to Britain? As for Oasis.... don't put any money on that move.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gingerbint Posted October 26, 2011 #44 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Is the demand from S'ton really that high over the winter months, it's such a long cruise before you get anywhere warm, and the Bay of Biscay can be terrible This is true, this is the reason she is going back overseas in the winter months, its too cold and not enough people travelling in the winter from the UK. This is what they said when we were on her last month. She is a lovely ship so be sad if she goes completely. Fingers crossed she continues to stay in the UK in the Summer.

They need to put a ship with a covered swimming pool on it for the winter out of Southampton. Indie is just not the right ship for this weather (and neither is Oasis!). Bring Brilliance to England...:) Heard Indie will be back in Summer 2013 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indy will be back in SPring 2013, but I wouldn't mind betting she will be replaced with the first Sunshine Class, as rumour has it, they are being built with a covered solarium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be a good idea to bring Jewel back in the winter, as she sails out of Harwich until September this year. Plus, the Radiance class has the covered solarium. I just wish they would tell us more about the sunshine class! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
