gaechann Posted February 3, 2014 #151 Share Posted February 3, 2014 I can't seem to find great JS pricing for that cruise on any website. :confused: Jill :) Just google cruise offers - that might help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mothballs Posted February 3, 2014 #152 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Hi Gae you will be having company on your tassie cruise:D we booked 8088 no roll call for it yet tho.Jacquie There is a roll call for this cruise.There are only three of us on there so far.

geoff2802 Posted February 3, 2014 #153 Share Posted February 3, 2014 (edited) Good pick up. Rhapsody has shown up in Buenos Aires port calendar around that time though. I can't imagine RCI sending the ship to Europe just to bring her back in the same year. Surely they wouldn't send one Vision class half way round the world and the replace it with another ship the same size. Channel dredging for Radiance perhaps? Posted in wrong thread... Sorry.

The_Big_M Posted February 3, 2014 #154 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Had a look at the solo rate is 200% That's the normal supplement for RCL... and it's still double a cheaper rate than usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

megsie Posted February 4, 2014 #156 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Rhapsody is going to Europe and also when Radiance leaves they will be replaced by two Voyager class ships, one of which is already not too far away. Voyager of the Seas staying at least in the short term. Interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoff2802 Posted February 4, 2014 #157 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Rhapsody is going to Europe and also when Radiance leaves they will be replaced by two Voyager class ships, one of which is already not too far away. Voyager of the Seas staying at least in the short term. Interesting. What source of information says that Rhapsody will be replaced with a Voyager class? RCI have said they want to bring bigger ships to Australia, but as a replacement for Rhapsody, that could mean either Radiance class, Voyager class or Freedom class. ;) Who says Radiance is leaving? Or did you mean when she is *eventually* replaced? Lots of speculation on this over on the redeployment thread. :) Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megsie Posted February 4, 2014 #158 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Just the information I was given when I asked the question while dining at the Captain's Table. Capt. Charles was not the source of the information as he did not want to give much away as apparently RCI are well aware of Cruise Critic. It was said that Radiance was going to be redeployed but no date given. Can only assume this info is correct as it came from a very high source directly but only adds a different twist to the speculation. I guess we all will wait and see but personally I think moving Radiance would be a mistake as the others are very big and busy ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dizziedi Posted February 4, 2014 #160 Share Posted February 4, 2014 (edited) Megsie, we were given similar information at Captains Table (on the Rhapsody) but I was told by another Officer (on the Radiance) that when the Radiance leaves our shores in April 2015 he had heard it won't be coming back. He was hoping that was wrong and so do I. Only time will put our rumours to bed:) Cheers Di PS I sat next to Captain Charles at the table and he has really nice eyes:D:eek: Really nice. Can I say that? Lol Edited February 4, 2014 by Dizziedi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avalon007 Posted February 14, 2014 #163 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Rhapsody of the Seas now appears in Buenos Aires cruise ship visits for 2015/16 season. http://www.puertobuenosaires.gov.ar/moduloGRAL.php?p=temppostprox If you look in the pop down menu for the vessel column for Marina Bay Cruise Terminal in Singapore the Explorer of the Seas is the only Royal Caribbean Ship that has not been to Singapore. So it would appear Explorer of the Seas is bound to visit Singapore. http://mbccs.com.sg/ Rhapsody is still listed for Sydney OPT into 2016 as well so all just probably a RCCL smoke screen to keep us guessing! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robinph Posted February 14, 2014 #164 Share Posted February 14, 2014 And the latest scuttlebutt confirms that. The report is that Explorer will be the replacement. We were on Rhapsody in Nov and the Explorer was the ship being bandied about by staff as Rhapsody's replacement.Robin:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we know she's going but there's no sense cancelling those bookings until the replacement is determined. There's no benefit to do so, and it lets them keep the same itineraries if suitable.

dancinman66 Posted February 22, 2014 #166 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Rhapsody is relocating to do the med and specifically the black sea they just released bookings two days ago plus we are looking at either explorer or mariner as her replacement the bookings for opt will just transfer to the replacement ship Greg:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
june46 Posted March 10, 2014 #167 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I found a cruise forum website which said after the Mediterranean summer season in Nov 2014 Rhapsody will do a Transatlantic heading for South American where she will cruise the summer 2015-2016 season. I would suppose that while Rhapsody is listed as being booked in to certain cruise terminals in Australia even up to 2016, RCC would want to keep those terminals booked and change it over to whatever ship they decide to send downunder.

Yillup Posted March 13, 2014 #170 Share Posted March 13, 2014 (edited) I'm looking forward to seeing what will happen with the Rhapsody, particularly seeing I'm booked on it for February 2015 and the Rhapsody has a very different floor plan in comparison to other ships in the same class...

LuckiePuris Posted March 14, 2014 #173 Share Posted March 14, 2014 As a TA, our RCI rep did hint that the new ship to Aus would be bigger than Voyager Class. By the sounds of it, fingers crossed for Freedom class. The official announcement was due a week ago, hopefully we should receive confirmation within the fortnight :) Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miamia65 Posted March 14, 2014 #174 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Based on the press releases on RCI's website … the only freedom class ship that isn't mentioned is Liberty of the Seas …. http://www.royalcaribbeanpresscenter.com/press-releases/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's possible that could be changed, but wouldn't have thought likely, unless it's after then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
