Andy Posted March 5, 2013 #1 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Hi Everyone, I've noticed that Celebrity revised some of the scheduled deployment release dates. It seems the earlier part of the schedule (Europe, South America, Panama Canal) remains the same, while the latter part of the schedule (Asia, Australia/New Zealand, Hawaii & Caribbean) have been adjusted, with Hawaii, Asia, Australia & NZ releasing on 4/11, and Caribbean releasing on 4/17. Assuming the Captains Club Early booking offer remains for all new deployments, we may learn about each region, and opening for Captains Club Member booking, 1 week prior to the dates listed below. As an example, I'm anticipating that we may hear about Alaska later today (March 5th). I hope this is helpful ! Here's the updated list : (As always - subject to change) =================================== Bermuda, Canada / New England - Open For Booking Alaska - 3/12 Northern Eurpope - 3/21 Europe & Transatlantic - 3/27 South America & Panama Canal - 4/3 Asia, Hawaii, Australia / New Zealand - 4/11 Caribbean - 4/17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope there are a couple of longer cruises as well Hiya Pean Glad I'm not alone! Andy's teasing announcements get me very excited:D Ideally we are looking for 11 day round trip Vancouver, would really like to see Sitka. Century is doing one in September this year which would be perfect for us (sadly 12 months too early) but with all the chatter about will she/won't she be with the fleet will she/won't she have a refurb next year has had me on edge! Hope you have a great trip & be in a position to book on board! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasYHZ Posted March 5, 2013 #5 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I wonder in which block of deployments the Pacific Coastal cruises will be released in? Alaska or Hawaii? The Pacific Coastal's bookend these sailings... Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Project_gal Posted March 5, 2013 #6 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Those of us on the [cancelled] Millennium transpacific will be interested to see the Alaska schedule for Millie. It will answer one of our questions. Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Italy52 Posted March 5, 2013 #7 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Another anxious cruiser waiting for the release of 2014 Alaska bookings. We are looking to do a B2B again on the Millennium --- hopefully, there will be no change from 2013's itinerary as we really enjoy all the ports.

vmarq Posted March 5, 2013 #8 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Andy, Do you expect they will release them sooner to Captains Club members? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted March 5, 2013 Author #9 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Andy,Do you expect they will release them sooner to Captains Club members? Hi Vmarq, That's what I'm hearing. Last week, Canada/New England & Bermuda were opened a week early for Captains Club Members. If the same holds true for Alaska (and I believe it will) we should be hearing about Alaska shortly.

Italy52 Posted March 5, 2013 #12 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Fun to watch these come out. I'm waiting for 3/27 and ready to book. I wish I were a Captains Club member. I see from your post that you have sailed with Royal Caribbean --- are you a Crown & Anchor Society member? If so, call Celebrity's Captain Club phone number and give them your C&A number and they will issue a Captain's Club number to you. I did this a few years back and was able to take advantage of savings on my booking. I have the following number for the Captain's Club Loyalty Desk: 1-800-760-0654.

Hi Swh&cv, Nothing confirmed, but I believe that on Reflection's Inaugural, a CC member reported that Celebrity's Management team mentioned the possibility of offering shorter sailings in Europe. We'll know the answers over the next few weeks, when Europe is announced. Stay Tuned ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Posted March 5, 2013 Author #18 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Do we know if the Century weill still be with us? Hi Leonardofan, While I do not have specific deployment information/itineraries yet, Century is expected to be sailing Alaska in Summer 2014, so that's a very positive sign.

chessbriar Posted March 5, 2013 #19 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Just to whet everyone's appetite for more. Solstice will be doing Alaska from Seattle. Infinity will be sailing Europe looks like from Harwich. Millennium with be doing the open jaw Alaska cruise. And from what I can tell Connie heading to Northern Europe again. And Summit Bermuda And there is a chance Silhouette could be doing summer Caribbean as they are adding 2 to the end of April Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mary El Posted March 5, 2013 #23 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Do you know if there will be a cruise to the Antartic in 2014? I'm assuming the ship will be the Infinity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtlantaCruiser72 Posted March 5, 2013 #24 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Do you know if there will be a cruise to the Antartic in 2014? I'm assuming the ship will be the Infinity? I believe that Infinity is the only ship in the fleet that can sail to Antarctica as she has an ice strengthened hull. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

TroubleT Posted March 5, 2013 #25 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Here is a little problem I am trying to solve. Celebrity chartered 04/26/2014 Millennium sailing and offered (which is very nice of them and I appreciate it!) to rebook any other sailings with an extra $300 onboard credit. The only little issue is that it should be done by 03-12-2013 or my original sailing will be simply cancelled and I will receive my deposit back. I would like to rebook because I already have some OBC from Celebrity and from my TA, plus an extra $300 OBC. However, the sailings I am interested in (Northern Eurpope - 3/21 and Europe & Transatlantic - 3/27) will be released after 03-12-2013. Is it possible to book any cruise to save OBC and then change it to the sailing I like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
