packyourpixiedust Posted April 13, 2016 #1 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Who else is waiting not so patiently to book for summer 2017??? If only we knew the prices! I actually think it's keeping me awake. Which won't bode well for my day tomorrow. What is everyone looking at??? I'm curious what rates will do over last summer? If there's a 10% increase then I can book what I want in the Dream. What's wveryone else thinking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's wveryone else thinking? Already booked the July 24 nine-day Alaska sailing on the Wonder out of Vancouver. It's pricey but not necessarily a good indicator of the pricing trend because Alaska tends to be higher anyway and it's a new, extended itinerary.

lolakat Posted April 13, 2016 #3 Share Posted April 13, 2016 I'm interested in summer 2017 as well. There is a thread on the disboards listing prices as gold members, who can book today, report them. No info on the Caribbean prices yet. British Isle 12 day reported as 7k for 2 adults in 11B inside cabin and 9 day Alaska around 12k for category 5.

Jestocost Posted April 13, 2016 #4 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Nine-day Alaska for four adults in one verandah cabin priced out at $14K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcakes Posted April 13, 2016 #5 Share Posted April 13, 2016 I'm thinking about booking the Magic 6 night repositioning from San Juan. I can't book til tomorrow, so I'm still weighing pros and cons and hoping that the price won't be insane. The disboards show a $3000 fare for 2 adults in a balcony cabin. I'm hoping that 2 adults and 1 kid in an ocean view will be in that range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moki'smommy Posted April 13, 2016 #6 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Looks like they didn't learn anything from 2016 Brit Isles 12 night. It originally booked for $7K for 2 adults in a cat 11 (same price as listed above). It filled at that price. It is now in *GT status as many people canceled before the penalty date.

Want this for family of 4 but can't book until tomorrow. Afraid I will be priced out. DH has to have a balcony! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moki'smommy Posted April 13, 2016 #9 Share Posted April 13, 2016 (edited) I just saw the 9 night Alaska, 2 adults, 2 kids, cat 5b for $14K. Completely insane. My thoughts.....Celebrity, Princess, etc. Edited April 13, 2016 by moki'smommy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dddone Posted April 13, 2016 #11 Share Posted April 13, 2016 I'm waiting on the prices. But it looks like i'll have to pay more for an inside cabin than for a grand suite on RCI's Vision for a Europe cruise in 2017. My whole family LOVES Disney, but don't see how I can justify the $$$$$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My whole family LOVES Disney, but don't see how I can justify the $$$$$. This is exactly the problem. In 2016, we can cruise the British Isles on Princess in a deluxe balcony for half the cost of an inside on DCL. We will miss DCL and especially certain CMs, but these prices are just crazy.

ilovewdw Posted April 15, 2016 #13 Share Posted April 15, 2016 (edited) We actually booked the Magic for the 7 night Med cruise in August 2017. We booked ONE Deluxe Inside 10A stateroom for all 4 of us (2 Adults, 2 Kids 15 & 12) for $7804. Hubby wanted me to look into longer cruises and compare to RCCL. We have NEVER sailed RCCL before and have always wanted to, but honestly...I'd much rather sail DCL. But when I saw a 14 night Med on the Independence of the Seas for only $1400 more than what we paid for the Magic...oh, and this is in TWO Promenade Staterooms...well, it's a no brainer. I guess we are trying RCCL next summer. :confused::eek: Edited April 15, 2016 by ilovewdw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

packyourpixiedust Posted April 16, 2016 Author #15 Share Posted April 16, 2016 I booked a double dip on castaway cay cruise. I've been dying to do one of these. Have the cruise environment which I love but the beach days which I really like as well. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMac713 Posted April 16, 2016 #16 Share Posted April 16, 2016 I also booked a double dip. I canceled a 7 night fantasy in March and rebooked a 4 night the same time, then also added the double dip for not much more total and 2 more nights.
