We just got off the phone with Princess...

Re-booked for the Oct 8 2016 from Rome. The offers we got were satisfactory & made the decision easy. I will not provide details; I cannot guarantee that everyone will get the same.

We did not get our casino credit; it's not available on this cruise. Oh well!

 

 

 

I couldn't find a sailing from Rome on October 8, 2016 on the Princess website. Maybe it's only available by calling Princess.

but if I needed them to immediately book another cruise, we would be out of luck

To PescadoAmarillo...if anyone wants they can cancel and then use the credit on any cruise.

Can you post the itinerary? I really liked the original one with all the Spanish ports and the only other med TA is on Pacific.

Wow! I agree. I won't be booking this one either.

The cruise that we were notified was being cancelled has still not been cancelled nor our FCCs or $15 OBC appeared in our Captains Circle account. For us, this isn't an issue because we have other FCCs, but if I needed them to immediately book another cruise, we would be out of luck. I guess I think that's the bigger issue than the amount of the Goodwill OBC.

 

That's strange. I was booked on all 3 of the canceled cruises -- Med, TA, and first Caribbean. Three $15.00 credits showed up in my Captain's Circle account Monday before I even had all the emails about the canceled cruises. A Princess rep called me Tuesday about the Med cruise and I told him to go ahead and officially cancel it and put the future cruise deposit back in my account. The cruise (actually all 3 of them) is still showing up on my Personalizer just like a regular cruise, but the future cruise credit is back on my account.

[SIZE="2"]Dw and I are also disappointed about the cancellation. We also had the med cruise scheduled with this for a b2b.

Our TA kept trying to find out if there would be a replacement for the Royal TA. Princess could't/wouldn't give
any answers. Although much earlier than we were wanting, we canceled the two cruises and we found
something similar on the Royal in the opposite direction in April and May 2016 time frame. Princess was
also having a sale with free beverage package. (Sip & Sail)

So now we will be doing out TA and Med in the Spring rather than in the fall.We will get to Barcelona
on TA and Med cruise.[/SIZE]

October 8, 2016 TA is now available on Princess site as well as other locations.
Embarking Rome, with Livorno, Toulon, Barcelona, Ponta Delgada as port stops and disembarkation in Ft. Lauderdale. 14 days.

Sad to see so many inconvenienced by the Dry Dock schedule, but a couple positive things I managed to find...at least these itineraries were cancelled far enough in advance that airfare shouldn't be an issue and those of us needing an accessible (read: handicapped) cabin, have some availability.

It would be so lovely if [U]all[/U], non-emergent Dry Docks were locked in to a schedule 2-3 years out, but apparently there is a roulette element to their availability...said the girl with the rose-colored glasses.

Thanks for the heads up! Booked it a few hours ago. Actually I've never been to Livorno, Toulon, or Barcelona so it worked out well for me. I'm also doing the Sept 6th from SH.
Cheers!!
