Deployment 2018-19 booking season begins

[internetwhiz]

CC is the enemy of the uninformed RCI customer service agent.

 

 

I know that's right.

This is what I got from the Royal site when I tried to book the Serenade eastbound TA in 2018

Any chance of a West Coast itinerary either from LA or SD.

 

I am looking for the same thing. We want to plan a Hawaii cruise...I hope to see something somewhere :(

Hi, Margaret! It seems the last release was delayed for our UK friends as well; doesn't seem right but neither did the free drinks package you folks got on the Harmony t/a in fall...

 

Talk later!

Not likely out of California. Seattle, yes...

If you want to do Hawaii on RCI you should plan the one from Hawaii to Vancouver. I think there is very little chance of their bringing a ship back into California anytime soon.

When I try to check the new releases with Edge I keep getting 404 error codes.

With Firefox I can get farther but still a mess. I tried to check on the spring 2018 TA of the Serenade as the only thing available is owner suite.

Best to call them on the phone or try refreshing the web page

I'm guessing you already tried Chrome already - it told me that there are no cabins available for only 2 guests. (!!!)

Exactly Margaret...Our perks are few and far between we have to take full advantage!

RCI has had two choices for Hawaii cruises the last few years, both on Radiance. One is northbound in the spring, from Honolulu to Vancouver, as the ship repositions from Australia to Alaska, and the other from Vancouver to Honolulu in the fall, as the ship repositions from Alaska back to Australia.

 

Not likely out of California. Seattle, yes...

 

If you're speaking of Hawaii, not on RCI -- perhaps on another cruise line.

I've had decent luck refreshing the web page. I use chrome.

How long does it normally take for the Meet and Mingles to open up after they release the schedules? Yes, I know there is PLENTY of time, and I don't need to be first. I just figure it will be a while before I start working on excursions, etc. for this cruise, and I want whoever signs in to know that they won't be alone.

As I recall sign ups start at the one year mark.

Roll Call can be started sooner.

Another option is the Explorer transpacifics, they spend 3 days in Hawaii.

Poster was asking if any cruises going out of Cali... Actually to Hawaii you have the Radiance going out of Canada and the Explorer out of Seattle going to Hawaii on way to Australia as I said...

[bigeck]

Do we have any idea of the Transatlantics for April '18

Looking at some options

 

Vision's last cruise is from Galveston.

Maybe a Galv to Barca Ta

 

Brilliance is at Tampa.

If it is showing in Amsterdam does that mean Tampa to Ams.

 

Serenade will be FLL to Copenhagen

 

Jewel is in San Juan until May which is later than this year.

Is Jewel going back to Rome

 

Indy and Navigator to Southampton.

 

I'm probably all wrong though.

Hi Alex

Serenade from FLL to Copenhagen is available to US & Canadians at present although according to Jeff (Lutzkibbutz) the prices are very high for a TA.

As for the others nothing is showing so far, we're waiting to try to book along with Jeff for April 18 too!!

Hi Margaret.

I went on the Us site and was able to do a dummy booking. It did seem pricey but it usually is.

Vision is winning for us at the moment but there might be some surprises.

I would guess Indy and Navigator will have their TA in late April?

Hoping for a very late TA on the Indy...beginning of May might even be better....as they have SOS already in the Med in May maybe they will delay the TA's into Southampton?

Looking at Indy's last cruise that's available to book. It would finish on Tue 3rd April. That doesn't really work with a 14 night Ta so they might add one or two 4/5 nighters before the Ta

 

Navigator is similar

[Thorben-Hendrik]

Uhhhh good point!

Was hoping they would have a later TA!

Maybe they will add some more cruises before the TA....:(

Navigator has a 9 night on April 13th 2018 ....that sounds promising for the TA being late in April....

Could not find ANY cruises for Indy in April 2018!

[Beachammo]

Has anyone booked the Serenade 2018 TA either online or by phone??

 

Are those prices correct?
