Trixie21 Posted October 1, 2016 #103 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Back to Europe? That is the logical conclusion. Harmony was very successful in Europe this year. The other factor to take into account is that oasis 4 is due to launch in spring 2018 and normally that would mean a first summer season in Europe? Any chance they would base 2 oasis class ships in Europe together? Not sure what's going on. Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Baltic Posted October 1, 2016 #105 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Hopefully they won't make them 7 night out of Barcelona. It's a wasted opportunity having anything less than 12 night. Maybe by 2018 they'll have taken the Magaluf factor out of Southampton routes to the med. Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LXA350 Posted October 1, 2016 #106 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Before we see 2 Oasis Class ships in Europe we will see at least one based in Asia. Normally in 2019 and 2020 Oasis and Allure need to visit Europe again for their dry docks which could be combined with a full summer season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Cruizers Posted October 1, 2016 #107 Share Posted October 1, 2016 We are on the Serenade next August for our TA run from Copenhagen and really looking forward to it. It will our first time visiting Copenhagen, Oslo, Kristiansand, Reyjkavik & Akureyri. Pron ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipfriend_max Posted October 2, 2016 #108 Share Posted October 2, 2016 (edited) Harmony back to Europe would not make any sense at all logistically...[emoji848] She is already in the Caribbean, and Oasis 4 constructed in Europe, so she should serve on Europe cruises in 2018. The reason why Harmony might not be listed at SXM might just be an itinerary change. Some seasons ago for Allure and Oasis there have also been such changes, where one port was replaced by another. And sorry, Oasis from Southampton is pretty unlikely. IMHO those ships are just for good and warm weather, and the Europe sailings from Southampton do not fulfil such needs. Especially in the Atlantic Ocean, and the fjords, there's too much inclement weather, and I also think several ports are not capable for Oasis class ships. If a new ship class comes to Southampton, Quantum class at best...

OfTheSeasCruiser Posted October 19, 2016 #109 Share Posted October 19, 2016 With Norwegian's recent announcement that the brand new Norwegian Bliss will be sailing her 2018 inaugural season from Seattle to Alaska, it got me wondering if Royal would feel the need to improve their offerings. I wonder if they would ever consider sending Ovation to Alaska in lieu of Explorer. Not sure if they would be willing to give up her China season though. Just putting this out there for the sake of discussion. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MADflyer Posted October 19, 2016 Author #110 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Yes. With Joy going to China and Getaway heading to the Baltic, the news of Bliss heading to Alaska shows how NCL is positioning themselves well competitively in some key markets.

MADflyer Posted October 19, 2016 Author #111 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Indy and Navigator are confirmed to be the ships heading back to Southampton for 2018. They have booked the TA, MED, Western and Baltic ports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have booked the TA, MED, Western and Baltic ports. I also see Navigator and Independence listed at Gibraltar, Funchal or Geiranger. But which Baltic port do you mean? Where did you see one listed in Baltics in 2018? Ovation or Quantum for Alaska are still a little unlikely IMHO, even the signs were created in Chinese for catering for those guests. Maybe in 2019 with the new Quantum-Class ship it could happen. For Europe the ships are mostly clear, except Brilliance. Any news about her? My money is on Amsterdam or Venice. Others in Europe should be: Oasis 4, Indy, Navigator, Jewel, Serenade, Vision, Rhapsody.

Maybe they'll send her to NJ again, sell the Bahamas cruises for a few weeks, then cancel them, and then send her to Europe instead. ;) Edited November 20, 2016 by OfTheSeasCruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
