Cruise schedule beyond May 2017?

[Pepc]

Does anyone know when Regent will be posting their cruise schedule beyond May 2017?

Does anyone know if the schedule will include Asia itineraries that focus more on Japan and Korea?

Thank you in advance!

I enquired about this on our recent cruise on the Voyager and I was told that it would be mid April before anything is published.

I'm not sure that anyone knows for absolute sure, but I've seen it said that those schedules will not be out until April this year-- later than usual. At the same time, there'll supposedly be the following year's itinerary out as well. In short, have to wait longer this year, but maybe considerably less long for the following year. Dunno for sure.

I asked Regent directly as I was looking for cruises around July '17 for my mother. I was told to start looking the last week of March or early April.

Some friends onboard Voyager told us that the Cruise Consultant told her mid April, but the itineraries will be thru May 2018 when they do come out, so will be a whole year's worth instead of just summer/fall 2017.

Thank you all, very much!

 

We will be cruising on Regent in June.

By what I've been reading on CC, it certainly sounds as though a person is a lot better off booking a future cruise while on-board now that Regent is touting a "price guarantee".

 

Am I understanding that correctly?

If the price goes down after I make final payment, will I get the reduced price applied to my booking?

 

If the new schedule (beyond May '17) comes out in April of this year, I will wait to book another cruise once we are on-board in June!

I'm still not exactly sure of this new way of going. Specifically, it used to be the case that one could book in advance, but then still get the on-board booking rate (and now presumably rate guarantee as well?) if the category were still available once on-board. Does that still pertain? In other words, one need not wait until on-board to book, is that correct?

poss: You can still cancel and rebook onboard IF the category still has availability and the price has not increased. We recently did just that and it worked fine. Actually, our TA knew that we wanted to do this and took care of it as soon as we boarded the ship.

 

Pepc: From what I read on another thread, if the price goes down after final payment, you get your money back in OBC's. Prior to final payment, your money will be refunded.
