kellyco Posted March 13, 2019 #1429 Share Posted March 13, 2019 I booked a cruise while on Indy last month and have until Saturday to change it without penalty. Was hoping the May 2021 cruises came out so we didn't get dinged with the non-refundable change fee. Thanks for your answer, I will stop stalking the web site now.

NateUpNorth Posted March 13, 2019 #1430 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Argh. Looks like those longer Southern winter itineraries out of Florida are still where the ships get sent prior to drydock upgrades..... Navigator last year, Explorer in 2020/21.

jonesy4life9 Posted March 13, 2019 #1436 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Yes Explorer is set for the beginning of 2020 before her summer European season. You can see a gap in her schedule from April-May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm disappointed with the abundance of 3/4/5 day itineraries, especially those using Radiance, Voyager and Freedom class ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WI-Cruiser Posted March 13, 2019 #1439 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Noticed the Explorer disappears from the schedule on and off for several weeks during Feb and Mar 2021. Any ideas? I thought maybe it would be reserved for special events/theme cruises, etc., but this seems excessive as it is several weeks during peak sailing times.

toad455 Posted March 13, 2019 #1440 Share Posted March 13, 2019 I noticed that, too. It's where a 9 day would be slotted. Jan. 29, Feb. 12 & 26 are all vacant, yet the 5 day itineraries are there for Jan. 24, Feb. 7 & 21. Maybe they need to alter the ABC itinerary and haven't found a substitute for one of the islands (Bonaire?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

molly361 Posted March 13, 2019 #1446 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Brilliance balconies look pretty pricey. $400+ more than we just paid for the same 5 days in 2021 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WI-Cruiser Posted March 13, 2019 #1448 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Yes, in dry dock 2020 - in fact they cancelled a cruise we had scheduled on it. Plus the missing weeks aren't contiguous. Missing Feb 26 - Mar 7 and then again after Mar 13 until the 21st. It appears that possibly two 9 day cruises aren't listed, which seems long for a charter. We were hoping to book a BTB with a 5 day. May be have to do the earlier Feb southern cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royal appear to be having issues with Spectrum. The Barcelona to Dubai mid April cruise has been red coded and not for sale for around month. One port schedule for Barcelona posted on social media shows Spectrum visit to start the repositioning to China crossed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
