internetwhiz Posted March 22, 2017 #2276 Share Posted March 22, 2017 I did get the WB Serenade TA booked. I really like the itinerary. I had an NCL TA booked, but this was same price for an interior, plus I had a Nextcruise Cert. I was going to look at a solo cabin, but their pricing was all caddywampus. It was $1500 more than an interior. I will keep the interior and get double points. Debbie What is the route of westbound Serenade TA? Price?

royzer76 Posted March 22, 2017 #2277 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Hi Guys. Can I ask the experts on here to do some speculating for me please. Just booked Jewel's 2018 westbound TA that ends up in San Juan. Typically what kind of cruises are offered from San Juan and how long? I'm think about back to back options. Oh and when do they open up for sale. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindyJohn Posted March 22, 2017 #2278 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Hi, Mindy and congrats right back at you for hetting what you wanted! I felt stupid being that after I booked the Jewel I started a Meet/Mingle roll call on the general Royal forum (twice yet) instead of in the Jewel M & M where it should have been. Bob and Karen ("Internetwhiz") came to my rescue. How is John? You have no doubt been busy watching for cruises but we are missing you on the Jewel roll, Jeff Ah ha - I see about the little Roll Call blunder - I've finally gotten used to how CC is organized, but it took me a while. I know people who never develop a comfort level and steer clear (DH is one of those). After his pneumonia last fall, he worked hard to rebuild strength and has done great, so we've been able to live mostly "normal" lives the last couple of months. However he started a new chemo about 2 weeks ago and it's knocked him down again. The doc took him off it and now he'll focused on getting back to where he was. Next week I'll be watching for some 2019 winter escapes to the Caribbean. What about you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're big fans of San Juan cruises as they're able to easily get to the Southern Caribbean with great ports such as Barbados, Aruba, Curacao, St. Lucia. You usually only get one sea day - a drawback for some people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodtime Cruizin Posted March 22, 2017 #2284 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Has RC lost their marbles? Looked at the 12-day Russian cruise on Navigator and they're looking for $6800 for the cheapest balcony. I booked a later 14-day also on Navigator for $4800 balcony. Amazing price per night differences for 2018. I think so! The 14 day Brilliance out of Amsterdam has their GS for $500 less than the balcony on the 12 day on Navigator!

travelgoddess1 Posted March 22, 2017 #2285 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Wowza. Earlier, I placed a '24 hour hold' on the May/Brilliance/GS and so after confirming w/ the DW, I called back to place the deposit & firm things up. The rep tells me there was a clerical error of $159 to our benefit. :) On a personal note, the 9th day of this cruise will place us to the Diamond level. Thanks to all that participated in posting info on this thread! Congratulations on your GS to celebrate your 40th anniversary, and also for reaching Diamond status, which will be recognized on the cruise following this one. :) Can I get some quick input about Vision class (Rhapsody, in particular) corner aft cabins? What are the differences/advantages of the JS corner on deck 8 vs the D1 on deck 7? I've stayed in both on other ships but not his class. I've read that the JS does not have the walk-in closet, but yes to the tub. I'm sure it's a bit bigger, but are those about the only differences? My preference is for the aft corner JS on Vision and Rhapsody, although the balcony aft corner is also nice. The JS balcony is larger, as is the cabin itself, plus it has the tub, as you mentioned. You also get double Crown & Anchor points, if that makes a difference to you. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They alternate itineraries, so you can do a B2B2B starting with the TA and have 3 different itineraries. They should open sometime next week.

We are not able to do more than one trip per year; Brenda is now retired but I have another 5+ years to go (with no time off for good behavior unless we try an international living dot com type of idea). Good luck with your next bookings, though it hardly seems like you need any re: booking cruises! Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
