ashleymathis Posted April 7, 2004 #1 Share Posted April 7, 2004 What is wrong with me??? I want to book a cruise right now for June 2005. I have noticed that the price is not too bad right now for a balcony stateroom. In past experience I have seen prices go up not down the closer it gets until sailing day. Should I wait or book today!!

HopingtoCruiseSoon Posted April 7, 2004 #3 Share Posted April 7, 2004 Where are you finding the prices for Summer 2005. I'm not seeing them on the RCCL.com website... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
addicted2traveling Posted April 7, 2004 #4 Share Posted April 7, 2004 I just booked the Explorer for January 2006! So no, I don't think booking for June 2005 is too early. My TA said she thinks it's a good idea to book early because she thinks prices are going to continue to go up. So if you have your heart set on a certain cruise go ahead and book it. If the price goes down, you can get an adjustment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
addicted2traveling Posted April 7, 2004 #5 Share Posted April 7, 2004 hopingtocruisesoon- Not sure why you can't pull up 2005 dates on RCI's website. I am able to pull up dates thru June 2006. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmjaffe Posted April 7, 2004 #6 Share Posted April 7, 2004 No it's not.. I'm waiting for them to decide what they'll be doing with any of the ships for 2005 Xmas/New Years. All other dates are loaded in the system. Gotta keep looking. Carolyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sassycruiser Posted April 7, 2004 #7 Share Posted April 7, 2004 Its not too early. I was looking with interest at the group cruise posted for 6/05. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribbeancats Posted April 7, 2004 #8 Share Posted April 7, 2004 We booked Jan'05 Mariner when got home from Serenade in Jan. We got a good deal on a JS & hoping a C&A coupon comes up before we make final payment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kathi29 Posted April 7, 2004 #9 Share Posted April 7, 2004 hopingtocruise... try different search criteria until the dates come up. I was trying to be very specific in my search... mariner, eastern, june 2005 and I wasn't getting any results. I forget what I ultimately used for criteria but suddenly my cruise showed up. It was an entirely different listing that the other Mariner Eastern that only went through April 05. Sovereign 6/02 Voyager 9/03 Mariner is so far away..

HopingtoCruiseSoon Posted April 7, 2004 #10 Share Posted April 7, 2004 Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I guess I should have been more specific. I am wondering about a June or July 2005 cruise on the Nordic Empress/Empress of the Seas and the only dates I'm getting in 2005 are January and February. I've tried searching just that ship and also searching just the timeframes and nothing comes up. I guess I'll have to breakdown and call for the information.

kml2000 Posted April 7, 2004 #11 Share Posted April 7, 2004 I booked an April 2005 cruise a couple of weeks ago because I was worried the prices will continue to increase. I don't think it is too early. 04/03/05 Mariner of the Seas [img]http://escati.linkopp.net/cgi-bin/countdown.cgi?trgb=000000&srgb=00ff00&prgb=9400d3&cdt=2005;04;03;17;00;00&timezone=GMT-0500[/img] Grandeur of the Seas 04/2003 Disney Wonder 07/2002 Carnival ??? 05/1994 Nordic Empress - 1992ish Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
