So much talk about Coastal Kitchen. Is it the best specialty restaurant on the ships?

 

It might be the best "included" specialty venue😉

Curious what's coming into Bayonne/Cape Liberty next summer & if the Anthem returns to its usual Fall/Winter itineraries? Would like a change in itineraries during the Winter out of Bayonne.

I'm waiting to find out what's going to happen July 2021, too. I was hoping to snag a black friday deal, but the booking won't be available until December.

That’s the date.  Perfect.

If the price is not insane (which it likely will be...), we will see you on that March 12 Odyssey cruise Ken.  Ontario teacher week.

Finally an 8 day that works with our break dates.  Are you still travelling with all of your kids?  

 

Off topic.. Do you know much about boogie boards, looking to buy Vikki one for Christmas.  Just bought my son a 38” shuv-it.

This waiting is killing me. I'm the guy who books a cruise 18-20 months in advance so I can spend the time thinking about shore excursions and such. I always sail out of Galveston. It's close enough, and I like it. So far it is only the (by then amplified) Liberty in Summer 2021. She appears to leave at the end of October 2021. I'm guessing they add a second ship in the Summer and bring ,*something* in for the Fall, presumably to use Pier 3. I just wanna know what it is.

Most likely Allure

Are we expecting the Cape Liberty cruises released this week too?  Or are those coming at a later time?

[pinebro]

Hmmm wonder whats up with Jewel May, 2021? 
anxious to book British Isles (not july tho)

[ssb]

Allure Should be Galveston around week of 11/10/2021. Allure last loop out of Florida 11/1/2021.

Cape Liberty is part of the North East release schedule, the week of December 2.

I keep seeing people talking about ships being "amped". What does that mean?

Marketing speak for RCI that says "Hey, look at us, we spent a bit more on this dry dock than usual and look at the great new feature this ship has".

I am still waiting for the Symphony sailings for late August! Even if the 6-night doesn't get released until December, the 8-night is still part of the 7+ Night Caribbean.

Cool. I am still curious about Summer 2021. It is hard for me to imagine the Liberty being the only ship there for several months.

Port bookings do not give any decisive indication of which of the remaining ships is going where. 

 

Explorer could be a second ship at Galveston if they are sending Oasis and Freedom to Bayonne for the summer. 

 

Liberty could replace Indy at Port Everglades following her revitalization and Indy could be sent to Galveston in December.  

 

These are not sound forecasts though as port data is too limited to have any certainty. 

 

 

Adventure  -  Galveston – revitalization- STO/CPH  / ??? Boston / PE

Allure   -  Miami / PC  / ??? Galveston or  PE from November

There is a gap in the 2021 VIsion sailings between September 30 and the westbound TA on October 30 from Barcelona.  Any ideas?  We booked the TA when it opened and hope the gap is not for a dry dock.

Lots of confirmation and some surprises here.

 

Mariner - 3/4N from PC through summer, then 4/5N from PC in winter

Liberty - 3/4N from MIA in winter

Navigator - 3/4N from MIA through summer, then 3/4N from PE

 

Oasis - 7N from Cape Liberty through summer

Freedom - 9/5N from Cape Liberty through summer

Empress - Bermuda/Canada through summer

Brilliance - 7N Boston in fall

 

No confirmation for Galveston after Liberty leaves, suggests Allure imo.

Thanks  Interesting that the Mariner is going to 4/5 nights in the winter.  Wonder where she will go other than of course, the Perfect Day at Coco Cay😇

Maybe adding a CocoCay overnight.

I also wonder if a different ship will do 3/4 nights from PC in the winter.

In case of the Explorer next year, it means they remove the Fitness area from the top front and add more staterooms instead ($$$), lol.

[MADflyer]

So that leaves Explorer completely open still.  Indy might just stay where she is but was not mentioned. Adventure is not currently having any port evidence showing where she is headed after the Baltic season.
