Summit - Transatlantic August 1st

[ipeeinthepool]

The Fall foliage cruises following the Iceland/Greenland cruises have disappeared from the website.  First available Summit cruise is October 26 to the Caribbean.

Well that’s to be expected, since they all depended on stops in Canada. But the August 1 and August 15 were not dependent on the Canadian stop.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but all Summit cruises have disappeared from the Celebrity website until Oct 26th where it begins a variety of Caribbean cruises.

I suspect you will see the cancellation next week.   Rumor has it that Celebrity will be announcing their US restart plans next week.  Remember that they already cancelled all the cruises after these until the Miami Caribbean season starting in October.   I suspect they will announce new Summit sailings for August, September and beginning of Oct.

Its true. I wonder if they will try a September TA instead?

These along with the Boston to Miami repositioning sailing were cancelled a few months ago.

Hi, it looks like you are new to CC. You started a thread on this same subject yesterday:

 

Perhaps the Mods can merge the two threads.

Ok thanks. If they don't have any cruises scheduled after these two transatlantics , I doubt these Iceland/Greenland will sail.  I doubt they will schedule any new cruises at this point and they won't let a fully staffed ship sit for a couple of months.

[wrk2cruise]

I thought they might fill in the schedule with Bermuda, Charleston, Newport, Portland, Boston, Bar Harbor type itineraries out of Port Liberty.  There's a big population to draw from for no fly cruisers.

Maybe the Summit will get selected to do the summertime Celebrity cruises in Alaska as it's currently just hanging out near the Bahamas?

All Summit July & August cruises has been removed from Celebrity website, my booking still exists in the cruise planner

[ipeeinthepool]

I think Celebrity's plate is full.  They have enough work to do to staff all of the ships for the existing itineraries.

New profile picture?

Summit will sail in Alaska per a post on this website under "news." It means no sail for the Iceland/Greenland folks. We were on the Aug. 15th from Southhampton. Although I tried to not get my hopes up, it is a sad reality it appears.

Would you please provide that link as I can't seem to find it.

 

Update: Found it on another thread.

Per the "news" section of this website, the Summit will do an Alaskan itinerary this summer. So no cruise for those of us hoping for Iceland/Greenland this summer.

Celebrity will send Celebrity Summit to Alaska, beginning July 23. The ship will stop at Ketchikan, Juneau and Skagway, and sail Endicott Arm and Dawes Glaicer. The season will end in mid-September, when the ship will reposition to the Caribbean.

As always, we the passengers are the last to know that our reservation has been canceled.

[C-Dragons]

So glad I canceled our Summit cruise to Bermuda in July and moved to  Edge in July!

Awful. Their concern is selling the new cruises, not tying up the lines with passengers seeking refunds so that they can make other summer vacation plans.

Wonder what the repo from Alaska to Miami will look like.
