Rare John&LaLa Posted May 18, 2017 #3951 Share Posted May 18, 2017 May 2019 will likely come out in March/April 2018. Never gets old. [emoji2] Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crzndeb Posted May 18, 2017 #3952 Share Posted May 18, 2017 [quote name=travelgoddess1;53101483 Bob has done an excellent job explaining PVSA' date=' IMO. I understood what he was saying, and I tend to be easily confused. :D :D[/quote] That was not intended to be a dig towards Bob. I also know the law, but Chengkp75 really knows all the nuances about these laws for those that wanted more of the nuts and bolts. That was my intention....now back to deployment 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merc85 Posted May 19, 2017 #3953 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Thanks Patti, the word distant was too vague for my brain.Now we have a measurement . Yep....but I don't believe the law states a measurement...it lists areas as previously posts have said. That 600 nautical miles is basically a placebo that has no legal meaning to the PVSA.

Merc85 Posted May 19, 2017 #3954 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Although off topic, this PVSA is why all the one way cruises in Alaska either leave from or arrive in Vancouver and not Seattle, but the round trip inside passage cruises to Alaska do use Seattle.

SPacificbound Posted May 19, 2017 #3956 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Anyone?? April 2019 Sydney to Hawaii then onto Seattle. On our Freedom TA the next cruise person knew about as much as I did, which was nothing. I'm medically grounded to North America for 2018 so really want to be able to have 2019 to look forward to.

It was supposed to be released May 15 but was delayed until early June..............we are also awaiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunset seekers Posted May 19, 2017 #3958 Share Posted May 19, 2017 We just got off Explorer 4 nt. Best of BC and we are on the April/18 Transpacific Sydney to Seattle. We were told by a few of the crew that ours will be the last spring Transpacific for Explorer, they will have a fall Seattle to Sydney and Explorer will be going to San Juan. We were told that another ship will be replacing Explorer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if it also means Voyager will now stay instead of doing year round in Singapore as planned. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean Dancer Posted May 20, 2017 #3963 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Maybe the brand new ship after Symphony or an Oasis class? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love and Oasis class down here in Australia, just not sure there are many ports it could visit. Although I guess if you're going on An Oasis ship you're not really doing it for the ports.

Sent from my iPhone using Forums I will be very disappointed if there is no Voyager Class doing the Australia runs. I really hate the bigger ships and prefer a smaller ship and better ports. A Freedom or Radiance class ship would also work for us :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean Dancer Posted May 20, 2017 #3967 Share Posted May 20, 2017 I do agree about Voyager class, we have sailed both Voyager and Explorer and also loved Serenade. We'll just have to wait....let's be positive, we may be pleasantly surprised!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're too popular. That's why if Explorer is going I'd hope they decided to leave Voyager down here. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blizzard54 Posted May 20, 2017 #3971 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Strange because Freedom is already going to San Juan.. It does sound strange. The 2018 Explorer TP us open for booking. I will be boarding the Explorer next Friday and will see what I can find out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be boarding the Explorer next Friday and will see what I can find out. The 2018 TP on Explorer open for booking is Sydney to Seattle, which based on the info above is not changed (the poster advising the info is even booked on it). The 2018 TP in April is part of the 2017/2018 season, which are all available to book and no changes. The poster is talking about the 2018/2019 season, in which they state Explorer won't have any more spring TP and after returning to Sydney from Seattle will go to San Juan. We won't know until June when the 2018/2019 is released. Not too long now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange because Freedom is already going to San Juan.. I agree! While I love it that RC is actually moving some ships around to give some variety, I find it weird that they would move EX to SJU after FR having only been there one year. (FR arrives in SJU May 2018). What route would EX travel to get from Sydney (or wherever in that part of the world) to get to SJU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springaussie Posted May 20, 2017 #3975 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Could Anthem having the propulsion problems be the cause of the big ship shuffle? It was reported here that Anthem staff were claiming they are off to Asia on a cruise last week. I assume Anthem is too big for Freeport and the dry dock will be done in Asia or Europe.
