Can you provide a link please? 20 minutes ago, jbethel11 said: Royal Caribbean already got rid of those sailings. They were up for quite some time, but you were not able to book those sailing dates, and then they were promptly removed entirely from the site. Exactly what jbethel11 said. One itinerary each for these 3 ships showed up, unable to book, but had 2021 dates. So it has been confirmed by these leaks as to which ships will be in Alaska in the 2021 season.

Don't look for it on any kind of regular schedule, China sailings seem to have a schedule of their own, much later than anything else.

Thanks -- the couple we usually travel with will be on a different ship from us when 7 day Caribbean sailings open up for May 2021 through April 2022. So we can make changes if we don't book the right sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tall-Cruiser Posted October 27, 2019 #632 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Given the revised Opening Schedule, is it safe to assume that Odyssey sailings will appear on three different dates? November 11 for Europe, November 18 for 7+ Night Caribbean and December 16 Short Caribbean? If the Europe sailings are expensive I may be looking at the Caribbean sailings.

MADflyer Posted October 27, 2019 #633 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Here is a list of possible deployment by ship. I am sure there are a few errors that will be caught directly. Lack of port bookings make Liberty, Indy and Adventure a bit of a mystery. Too many port bookings in multiple regions make Explorer and Jewel a bit of a mystery. Adventure - ???

Brilliance Tampa/ Amsterdam / Miami Empress - Miami / Bayonne? Enchantment - Baltimore year round.

It is even unclear if Anthem returns to Bayonne from Southampton and they have also booked Anthem in Europe for summer of 2022 as well. This is unusual for bookings to be made that far in advance and they are, of course, always subject to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many port bookings in multiple regions make Explorer and Jewel a bit of a mystery. Brilliance Tampa/ Amsterdam / Miami [...] Jewel - Suez/BCN / Western & Northern Europe / Rome / Dubai The cruise terminal of Amsterdam has updated its cruise schedule for 2021, and mostly, during the summer season 2021, it lists BOTH JEWEL AND BRILLIANCE in Amsterdam every 12 nights. Further there's cruise calls in Le Havre for Jewel in 2021, which indicate Amsterdam as destination or origin port on some cruises, so I think Jewel sails the 12 night routes from Amsterdam, and Brilliance takes over the Stockholm and Copenhagen itineraries, so just a simple ship swap. But Jewel is also listed in Klaipeda, which indicates that she could do the Copenhagen deployment again in 2021, but maybe those lists are not updated yet. So it could well be: Jewel Amserdam, Brilliance Copenhagen, but the cruises themselves should be the same as in recent years more or less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they had planned something different for Jewel early in the booking season and that there are many bookings. It seems what is ending up to be the case is that Jewel will return to Dubai and therefor for multiple B2B potential sailings the ship will move from Dubai to Rome to Barcelona to Amsterdam to Copenhagen and on to Stockholm doing a Baltic and a Fjord sailing before settling into Baltic sailings before doing the same in reverse and ending up in Rome prior to the Suez sailing to Dubai for the season. They of course could just switch ships. I do not think Amsterdam will have 2 ships for a season at least. But, everything is always subject to change.

Regarding Australia deployment... The Sydney OPT calendar still shows regular entries in the name "Unnamed Vessel" from Nov 2021 to June 2022. This ship enters the country at Fremantle on Oct 25, 2021, under the placeholder name Ovation of the Seas. The ship then sails around the south of the country to Sydney.

I have that ship has Spectrum of the Seas Geoff. The port bookings for Voyager of the Seas arriving Darwin 1 June Brisbane 8 June and Sydney 10 June 2021 are the interesting ones. Then Voyager disappears until Darwin and Sydney October 2021. As I have said previously it could be the ship that is going to California as media rumours have reported. Or is Voyager staying in Australia for our Winter? Serenade is mentioned no where plus Royal doesn’t have any port bookings showing a around Oz cruise February/ March 2022. Serenade is also due for a dry dock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think it's Spectrum because Wonder Is going to Shanghai? This would make sense and all the talk of it being a Chinese only ship is nonsense. Regarding the Voyager entries in 2021, I would have thought port entries would already be showing if she is staying in Australia through the southern Winter. So I think she is going elsewhere during this time. California, then returning via Asia in a Circle Pacific?

I do not think the October 2021 and June 2021 are the same ship for Voyager of the Seas if she is not staying in Oz. What is interesting is the June 2021 path from Darwin to Brisbane is 7 days indicating Airlie Beach and Cairns stops which Quantum Class cannot do. The October 2021 Voyager path to Sydney is followed by a Melbourne visit which Quantum Class cannot do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By now, I would expect to see bookings showing the repositioning to Asia in the Darwin and Brisbane port calendars, but there are none. It's possible they haven't made the bookings yet or that she returns to Asia by a different route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toad455 Posted October 28, 2019 #649 Share Posted October 28, 2019 I was really hoping the Anthem would get replaced out of Bayonne with the Odyssey. It'll be 7 years come 2022 the Anthem has sailed out of Bayonne(outside of two summers). I think an Icon-class is too big to fill during the winter out of Bayonne. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are the main tourist market for Hong Kong. The final payment date for these cruises just passed. A passenger from Hong Kong has said that they are offering extraordinary prices on spectrum in the local market. Better to fill the ship at fire sale prices than sail mostly empty. On voyager in August, they were offering casino patrons a chance to stay on the ship, paying just taxes and gratuities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
