Aug 2022 NCL Joy cancelled

[jfio1021]

Today i received a rather vague email from my TA that due to a redeployment of ships my NYC 2022 cruise has been cancelled, has this happened to anyone else sailing the joy in 2022.  Does anyone know what ship will be replacing it? , my TA computer still showed it was the joy 

 

Nevermind it looks like they just canceled for last august only running it in july

NCL just changed our Transatlantic NY-BCN april 2022. The "Epic" deleted from schedule, changed this trip from 14 to 16 nights and looks like they plan to change start and destination. "New York" no more displayed, and Palma d. Majorca - DAY AT SEA  (???) - Barcelona.

 

We got a new cabin, a number which only to be found on the Epic. Hm...

Whenever they say 'due to a redeployment of ships....' it gets interesting.  This could change a number of already booked cruises. 

 

Interesting that these are both for 2022.

At this point, expect EVERY sailing to be moved, changed or canceled.  Nobody has any idea when or if cruising will ever happen again.  As the months roll by, cruise lines adjust for the expected future.  I have zero interest in booking a cruise right now.  I highly doubt NCL will survive.

There is a gap in the Joy's schedule from August 14 to September 1. The ship is scheduled to do NYC to Bermuda before and after the gap.

Joy is due for a required 5 year dry dock inspection in 2022.  This is likely the window when that will be done.  The refit for North America done last year doesn't change this timetable.

We have a 2022 June Bermuda  cruise on the Joy in June. No indication of any changes. 

[Hºoºwie]

We have a Sept6, 2022 - 10 day Canada/New England on the Joy out of NYC.  No word on any changes......yet.

Looks like it was just August that was canceled

Debating whether to rebook now or give it a couple months

I'm booked on an April NYC-Bahamas 2021 cruise and the chances of it happening are just about 0.  I'm gonna cancel anyway before final payment.  But, as long as I don't need to put out any more cash, I don't have a problem with booking.  The way I see it, the prices have nowhere to go but up.

It has always been a risk to book a cruise more than a year ahead of time.  They often changed their mind on deployment and canceled cruises, although they used to offer a specific replacement cruise, they don't see to be confident enough to do that any more.  Also a risk as charters kick in around 12-15 months out and that's another way people get notified their cruise is "canceled."

We're booked on the Joy in April NYC to Bermuda. We've decided to let it ride  and see what happens. 

 

NCL is down to just a few ships and a few itineraries in March. The success of those cruises will lay the groundwork for the April cruises when most of the ships come back online.

Step78....ref your post no. 2 above. We are on the Apr 2022 Epic TA as well. While the cruise no longer shows on the NCL site, and things appear messed up in my MyNCL account, what is your source that Epic is out and itinerary changing from 14 to 16 days, no longer from NYC, Palma maybe a sea day, etc? I have not called to query NCL yet thinking it’s so far out but perhaps I should.

Original schedule:

 

 

Possible new schedule:

Apr 02: New York

Apr 03: at sea

Apr 04: Royal Naval Dockyard, Bermuda

Apr 05: Royal Naval Dockyard, Bermuda

Apr 06 afterwards: unchanged

 

Hence there is one more night for this cruise, and it departs one day earlier.

This is mentioned on Facebook groups by some booked passengers but they haven't shared the official NCL notice.

Using a PC the Website Shows a Second day at Royal Naval abd an additional day at Sea following the day at Palma. 

 

The mobile Website Shows nothing. Hope so Post a Screenshot as soon as possible.

Maybe, a mod would split this in two threads? Thank you!

Then it becomes exactly the same as the forecast I have mentioned before 😄

I know everyone wants to be positive and bla bla bla but seriously. I also know cruisers are a smart bunch and you all know that nothing is certain for the return to cruising right now, let alone a “August 2022” cruise. Come On.
