cbpanda Posted August 24, 2006 #1 Share Posted August 24, 2006 I hear about them, and occasionally come across the one-way cruises while searching the cruises on Princess' site, but is there one place where you can see which ships are moving to where and when? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbrambach Posted August 24, 2006 #2 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Usually on the back of the Princess Brochure it will show the different ships and where they will be sailing to in a particular month. It will say ex: Crowm Princess Oct 27 8 days NY to San Juan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CL-JW Posted August 24, 2006 #5 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Most repo cruise are done during late Spring and early Fall, when the cruise lines change regions. Example would be in the Spring when ships are moved from the Caribbean or Mexico to Alaska or Europe. The best place is to look on the cruise lines web sites with dates during that time of year or ask you TA that you are interested in reposition cruises. Repo cruise are great especially if you live near one of the ports on either end of the cruise. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smoothdancer Posted August 24, 2006 #6 Share Posted August 24, 2006 We did a repo cruise in October, and really loved it... It was a full Panama Canal.. Started in Acapulco and ended in FFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds wonderful. I would love to do the Panama Canal someday. Hopefully, I can talk my husband into taking a longer (than a week) cruise. Spring/Fall are hard, though, since he teaches high school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffetman Posted August 25, 2006 #8 Share Posted August 25, 2006 You can get a list of Princess repositioning cruises simply by going to their online cruise finder (on their site). Plug in the month (Sept or May) and search for 0-5 days. They'll pop right up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinMK Posted August 25, 2006 #9 Share Posted August 25, 2006 I noticed Princess has an unusual one going one way between Puerto Rico and Manaus, Brazil. I guess technically not a repositioning cruise but a rather unusual itinerary anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonsey Posted August 25, 2006 #10 Share Posted August 25, 2006 HI Repositions are very popular and quickly sell out just think of the cruise season for the region ie Alaska is Summer so to get there the Ships have to be repositioned. We feel very lucky because the Sapphire Princess is to return back to the USA from Australia and we are on it Same the ship is repositioning from the USA via Asia to Aust for the Summer cruising season next month. If you are interested in Aussy I think Princess have 3 ships coming and going 2008. The Itinerary are brilliant.<img> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruzbw Posted August 26, 2006 #11 Share Posted August 26, 2006 I find out about the repos from the emails from Princess and HAL. They offer some good specials on their emails. Something interesting I've noted however. We are booked for a Princess cruise in January. Now I get NO email offers. I don't find that coincidental. The upcoming cruise info must go into their email system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisin' Chick Posted August 26, 2006 #12 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Closer to your cruise, you should start getting offers again from Princess. They want you to think about booking your next cruise while onboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruzbw Posted August 26, 2006 #13 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Thanks for that info, Cruisin' Chick. That will be good. I'm sure we'll do an onboard open booking. What they don't know is that I'm willing to do a quickie cruise before January if the offer was interesting. I'm not addicted!! Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will be our first repo cruise but we spent 6 weeks in AU last year and loved it. Wish we could do some of the 3 and 4 day repo's too.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
