For shorter parts I find cabins but those voyages in North Europe are ridiculous expensive. More than 7.000 Euro for 8 days in a standard balcony cabin.

I thought I had read, some time ago, that there was nothing but interiors and a few OV remaining available for the full sailing. Maybe I’m misremembering.

A balcony cabin on my segment is over £10,800 now (for two without gratuities). Edited November 26, 2023 by sgmn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the mini segments first came out, most just had inside and OV, don't know about the quarter segments or full world cruise. Ours had nothing above OV , but now they are selling balconies on the minis though not many left and no suites Edited November 26, 2023 by sgmn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LadyZolt Posted November 26, 2023 #462 Share Posted November 26, 2023 As someone who is on the full world cruise, I do hope that the ship isn't sold out at any point. Less crowds sounds good to me! 🙂 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do a dummy booking for each of the 17 segments. Starting with the first 3...which is our "first quarter"...you will see a lot of balcony cabins available. I am currently trying to change cabins from half way down one aft hallway to a cabin on "the hump" which will be less up and down during rough seas around the horn. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought you didn't like those hump cabins because of the smoke coming out of the casino? up through the centrum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I would need help trying to post pictures. Orville is top notch at it. 🙂 Will be good to see John and Laura again. He has mentioned helping me with the pictures before That would be fantastic if you did one. I am certain he will provide all the help you need. @orville99 I just came upon this in the last hour have almost caught up. Really enjoying it. Thanks for sharing your journey. P.S. love that you follow your DW rules. I.e not posting certain things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is kind of a broad range in time. I'm not quite sure how you could pick one that is more suitable. At least repairmen give you a 2- or 4-hour window. 😄 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO a balcony on this ship is not worth that kind of money wherever it's going. 16 nights, so £337 pppn, standard balcony. BCN to SOU segment, there's some nice ports not normally available in their standard med cruise. There's only a handful of balconies left now, hence the high cost. We were on her for 12 nights last autumn so we know what we're in for. On Med cruises it's all about the ports. Think there's only three sea days. It was a LOT cheaper when we booked Edited November 27, 2023 by sgmn 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re on 2 segments in a spacious balcony on deck 9 and both together don’t add up to that amount Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
