Rare Teeara Posted February 24, 2021 #4 Share Posted February 24, 2021 That Adventure from NJ to Galveston looks intriguing, although we're still holding out for the Fall 2022 TA on Allure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, I'd rather do Repo on Radiance Class but did enjoy few longer Cruises on Voyager Class ships. Good Luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a smart move for them for hurricane / rainy season...short party cruises (read: $$$ for them), but close enough to home port to get back safely if a storm comes.

Good Luck! I'm sticking with the Allure Fall TA next year. We love the Voyager class (especially 7388 and 7688). Allure will be our first Oasis class and we were heartily disappointed that the TA was canceled last year, so definitely looking forward to next year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allure will be our first Oasis class and we were heartily disappointed that the TA was canceled last year, so definitely looking forward to next year. I'm not sure whether I will do the 2022 Allure TA or not. I was also on the cancelled 2020 fall TA. I currently have Sept 2022 Voyager Arctic crossing booked (L&S from 2021 Jewel), so I may not want to do another 14 night TA a little over a month later. Plus, I may L&S my Oct 2021 Anthem TA (which was a L&S from 2020 Allure fall TA) to Oct 2022. It would be nice if I could L&S the Anthem 2021 TA back to Allure for 2022. 🙂 Edited February 24, 2021 by Another_Critic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken at the beach Posted February 24, 2021 #11 Share Posted February 24, 2021 @firefly333Liberty is leaving Galveston in the fall of 2022. We'll find out for sure next week but I'm guessing that the new terminal will be done and you will be able to sail Allure 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont want liberty gone, just another choice. April 1st will be here before we know it and we will see if rcl jumps in on terminal 3 in Galveston. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I see that happening Idk rcl says they want to compete with ccl. Ccl says Galveston is one of it's most profitable ports. Ccl has dream 6 and 8 days. Dream class fairly new. It also has vista one of its newest largest classes doing 7 days. Allure is larger than liberty and supposed to be more competitive for the market. Carnival also has tried longer and more varied itineraries. I see a 14 day partial Panama on ccl in late 2022 back. So far it's a big carnival profit center, john healds words, not mine. And why Galveston gets some of ccl newest and biggest ships. We will see if rcl does make inroads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mac_tlc Posted February 24, 2021 #19 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Just did a quickie price comparison. It's cheaper to fly to Rome and do Brilliance then it is to drive to NJ and do Adventure. Yikes. mac_tlc 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess RCL is willing to gamble a little with Brilliance that the ban may be overturned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFerrington Posted February 24, 2021 #23 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Here’s the thing about Key West. Even if the state manages to overturn the prohibition on cruise ships, why would I want to visit a port where the residents didn’t want me there ? I don’t get it.

Because once you are on land they don’t care who you are or where you came from, they’ll gladly accept your money. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
