Janet S. Posted September 27, 2005 #1 Share Posted September 27, 2005 Looking at doing an Alaskan cruise in 2007. Does anyone have an idea when Royal Caribbean will release their schedules for 2007? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seeker Posted September 27, 2005 #2 Share Posted September 27, 2005 We just received the Alaska 2006 broshures, no clue about 2007. Sorry Seeker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisechick82 Posted September 27, 2005 #3 Share Posted September 27, 2005 I think it will be around April or May, that's when they released schedules this year for 2006. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nerak Posted September 28, 2005 #4 Share Posted September 28, 2005 Can't answer that for you, but here's a 'heads up'...we sat at the Captain's Table (not the Captain though...it was head of finances and head of food/beverage) back in May on the Serenade. Dennis, the head of finances, told us that there is a possiblity of the Serenade going to the Mediterrean beginning 2007. You might want to look for that change and to have alternate ideas just in case you were considering the Serenade. Sorry we can't confirm this...other than what he stated at dinner.

dougp26364 Posted September 28, 2005 #5 Share Posted September 28, 2005 We booked our 2006 Alaska cruise on May 5th of this year. I would think the 2007 schedule would be out about that same time next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GigglewolfOfTheSeas Posted September 28, 2005 #6 Share Posted September 28, 2005 Something else to consider... If the #2 Freedom-class ship is delivered in spring of 2007, it's remotely possible that RCI would deploy a Voyager-class ship to ALASKA for the summer season. And before anyone mentions it...I realize these ships are unable to navigate the Panama canal. However, I can assure you that with as many Voyager-class ships as currently exist, plus the 3 Freedom-class vessels, RCI most definitely will send a ship out West in the future. You must remember that Sovereign, Monarch & Majesty were all RCI's "bread & butter" Caribbean ships for much of the early nineties; their success helped build every ship since. They were the largest ships of their day. And now...they handle the 3 & 4 night runs for RCI; Monarch does it year-round out of Long Beach. Voyager-class on the west coast...VERY POSSIBLE (and wouldn't you guys out there LOVE THAT?)! :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassandra Posted September 28, 2005 #7 Share Posted September 28, 2005 That would stink if Serenade goes to the Mediterranean in 2007. We were hoping to do an Alaska cruise on this ship since we just went on our first cruise back in April on this ship. :) Next year would be out for us to do a cruise - large possibility of a company re-location (not going) & moving to Florida vs. staying here in CT.

It's not completely unrealistic. I could see a Voyager class doing a year round stent between Alaska and Hawaii, never returning to the east coast again. I just think it's unlikely and more wishful thinking than anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfcathorse Posted September 29, 2005 #9 Share Posted September 29, 2005 I've been to RCI's website and if you do a quick search putting in destination, it will come up with the current schedule for all the ships doing AK and by the 2007 dates they do list, there will be a spot to click on for "more 2007 dates" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Monarch sails from San Pedro, not Long Beach, BTW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
