This isn’t official yet but a potential cruise that might be offered. 13 Night Sydney To Singapore, Ovation Of The Seas Apr 3 - Apr 16 Would it not be easier to have an 11 day to Singapore and not have to change anything for passengers other than a ship change to Yokohama and then on to Seattle? The only issue is how many cabins are available now if they just switch ships for Ovation passengers wanting to continue on?

They don't care if passengers are inconvenienced - should be very clear by now! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything is possible until (and after) they make it available to book. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare twangster Posted February 26 #2330 Share Posted February 26 3 minutes ago, tottenhamfc said: When do you guess the timing of this might be? No idea. There are a lot of moving pieces and the situation impacting the Suez Canal could cause them to wait more if they are even thinking about not sending Anthem to the Pacific. Even if that is a remote possibility they may delay decisions until they are more certain. Time will tell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potential signs of her joining the short Florida market with an occasional Key West visit vs. the standard 3/4 Monday-Friday-Monday Nassau-PDCC. What a waste!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare twangster Posted February 26 #2332 Share Posted February 26 The new cruise terminal in Tokyo could enter the fray for a ship in 2025. https://uniquevenues-en.metro.tokyo.lg.jp/venues/metropolitan/12004/ I envision officials in Tokyo saying Kon'nichiwa and giving a standing Ovation to Royal in the Northern hemisphere's summer of 2025.

The Scurvy Pirate Posted February 26 #2333 Share Posted February 26 Any word on the 2025 long caribbean deployment? The brochure seemed to indicate it should have been posted last week, but I am still not seeing anything. Was thinking Freedom may be a part of that, but RCI is still showing no sailings after April 2025 for Freedom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t understand why Royal hasn’t tried a seasonal ship in Japan ,Celebrity is a regular there. Or at least a regular interport with Singapore. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're just waiting on short Caribbean and LA which is supposed to be this week. Of course it was supposed to be last week, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some years there is Long Caribbean and then Seasonal non-all yr round Long Caribbean sailings. Lot of times these are released separate or under othere dates. Can only hope a few more to come. Over last few yrs scored some good Repo's, Long Caribbean and Panama Canals on weeks nothing was to come out, but I'm always watching until everything is done Edited February 27 by ONECRUISER 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare FionaMG Posted February 27 #2342 Share Posted February 27 1 hour ago, Scottdalfonso said: Which ones? I don't think there are many more at this point There are usually 9-11 night Caribbean cruises, and sometimes a few 12-nighters, out of both Miami and Fort Lauderdale over the winter period. If you search for cruises of that length departing from those ports between November 2025 and April 2026, there are none at all; the longest are 8 nights. If you do the same search but for the period November 2024 to April 2025, you have Grandeur doing 9-nighters out of fort Lauderdale and Explorer doing 10 and 11-nighters out of Miami. So that's what we're still missing. I'm waiting for these ones so I really hope they haven't decided not to have them any more. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisin from florida Posted February 27 #2344 Share Posted February 27 They used to have a cruise calendar so you could see which ships were going where (and when). That would help to identify the current gaps in deployment. Is that calendar, or something similar, available anywhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
