bigque Posted July 30, 2015 #27 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Booked our cruise for this coming October 2015 in April 2014. I book early mainly to get the cabin that I like and want and then I have a long time to make payments to pay it off before the final payment date! :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daveintb Posted July 30, 2015 #28 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Booked 465 days out for Allure in the Western Med, just 42 short days till we board [emoji2] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare rafinmd Posted July 30, 2015 #29 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I tend not to book RCI cruises far in advance. I think the longest was my Allure TA, 25 October 15 booked 10 August 2014, or about 441 days. My longest RCI related was the Celebrity Infinity 16 March 2017, booked while on the Grandeur 14 March 2015, or about 733 days. My longest ever was the Crystal World Cruise 23 January 2018 booked 8 March 2015, or about 1052 days. Roy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladysilver Posted July 30, 2015 #30 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Around 18 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bakersdozen12 Posted July 30, 2015 #31 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Last April I booked a cruise for Nov of 2016, so a year and a half in advance. I felt a little overzealous, but it's for my 40th birthday, and I wanted an aft wrap. Glad I booked early, though, because as of today, there are only two left.

paul929207 Posted July 30, 2015 #32 Share Posted July 30, 2015 We booked a b2b2b on the Grand Princess circumnavigating South America in May, 2011. About 715 days in advance. The week after we booked bit was sold out. and stayed sold out thru sailing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare tetleytea Posted July 30, 2015 #33 Share Posted July 30, 2015 My deposit has never been refundable. Let's put it that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buggins0402 Posted July 30, 2015 #34 Share Posted July 30, 2015 1 & 1/2 years...had a cruise credit burning a hole in my pocket, so I picked a cruise. I just changed it to another cruise that works better, but it's still 10 months away. Replacement cruise was originally priced the same as original, but price on both went up so we had a price increase. Also, lost some perks...but with the credit, we're still ahead of the game.

4boysnana Posted July 31, 2015 #35 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I booked one about 540 days out to get the cabin I need. I am checking everyday on a Panama canal cruise for September of next year on HAL that hasn't been released. I is driving me nuts. You can see it on the online brochure but you can't book it yet. Maybe August. 4boysnana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Honolulu Blue Posted July 31, 2015 #36 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I booked my journey on the Norwegian Getaway in April for a December '16 departure, so that was a bit over 19 months out. I'm not sure how many days that turned out to be, but it was quite a few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treven Posted July 31, 2015 #37 Share Posted July 31, 2015 It's not uncommon for me to book 18 months-2 years out so I can get an accessible cabin. It's not a fancy one either, just an interior or an oceanview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPacificbound Posted July 31, 2015 #38 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I always book as soon as the schedule is released, so typically somewhere between 18-24 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biker@sea Posted July 31, 2015 #39 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Furthest out we booked was 20 months for D.W. 50th. Shortest was 12 hrs before sailing. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NMLady Posted July 31, 2015 #40 Share Posted July 31, 2015 . ... But if the price drops, you can always call and get the lower price. ... Might be true on some cruise lines but not on all cruise lines. Some will give some obc, some give nothing. Most price drops are for new bookings only.

Rare Scrapnana Posted July 31, 2015 #41 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Three of my last four cruises were booked at least 16 months in advance so my countdown clocks started close to 500 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kira1970 Posted July 31, 2015 #42 Share Posted July 31, 2015 We booked 20th May 2014 and we don't sail until 8th February 2016. It was close or just over 800 days can't remember now.. But we are now under the 200 days to go. Been a very long wait. But worthwhile as I have learnt so much from cruise critic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshhawk Posted July 31, 2015 #43 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I booked the Alaska cruise the day it was announced, and my DH and BF thought I was crazy. So that was at 560. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moodyb1 Posted July 31, 2015 #44 Share Posted July 31, 2015 On a May 2015 Celebrity Summit sailing to Bermuda, we booked a September 2017 Celebrity Xpedition sailing to the Galapagos. We got the last cabin in the category we wanted! Arlene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
