I’m hoping Wonder stays in the US for 2023.

They always do a test load on the website the week before with one itinerary from each ship. They will disappear soon until next week.

Looks like Symphony, Odyssey, Anthem, Explorer, Voyager, Brilliance, Jewel, Rhapsody and Serenade will be doing Europe

Yes, was showing as heading to Hawaii in September yesterday. Of course you get different results on the website every day and it is now not showing. The interesting one was that there was no Radiance to Hawaii, only Ovation, Quantum and Enchantment.

All up now

P&O have cancelled further, expect the same from the others.

It's been a while since I had a booking with CocoCay on the itinerary. Looking at the cruise planner now and they only have full day passes to Thrill Water Park and Coco Beach Club. I thought they used to do half day passes to these? or am I remembering incorrectly? Either way we want to do both. Has anyone done full day passes to both and just gone back and forward, did you think it was worth it? Thanks

Just arrived in Australia.. better shutdown the cruise industry! Oh that’s right.. it never started!! The media are loving this one, as noted above the South Africans are wondering what all the fuss is about, the symptoms are the mildest of any of the variants.

Adding the big writing to the side like Odyssey..

Thanks for this, hopefully all runs smoothly. We’ve travelled from Melbourne to Miami/Ft Lauderdale/Orlando to get on ships in the past but I’m super nervous about it this new world. Hoping to learn from your experience!

Looks like we’ll be headed to Singapore instead! https://cruisepassenger.com.au/news/exclusive-singapore-welcomes-australians-to-cruise-aboard-its-ships/

"we have replaced our visit to Bora Bora with Moorea, French Polynesia." , so bending the truth there a little.

Good news, yes. But completely ridiculous restrictions for a country at 90% fully vaccinated.

1st of FEB! Cruising is back. But only for NSW residents, and only in NSW waters, what a joke! https://cruisepassenger.com.au/news/exclusive-local-cruises-allowed-from-february-1-next-year/

Moorea was already on those itineraries, so does that mean 2 day stop?

Before COVID started the Sydney cruise ship schedule used to show an 'unnamed' Royal Caribbean ship in May/Jun of 2022, well past April when they usually leave. I believe their plan back then was to leave Quantum of the Seas here full time, as Carnival was also doing with Splendor. Given we would be going into winter a Quantum class would make sense. Here is the screenshot I took early 2019. Of course all this changed once COVID hit.

Would not be worth sending Ovation here in March for it only to have to leave again in April would it?

Isn't Spectrum sailing now? According to Hong Kong Cruise Society facebook page it is.

Possibly before Christmas now.. https://www.smh.com.au/national/nsw/hunt-flags-cruise-ships-to-return-to-australian-shores-before-christmas-20211114-p598tl.html Just thinking.. maybe they could bring Specturm here after it's finished in Hong Kong in Jan rather than send to Tianjin??

Carnival just cancelled everything until March 2022, so Autumn/Winter is looking the most likely at this stage. Would Royal Caribbean even have any ships free for that period? Usually none in our area after early April. His worse case scenario is just the normal 22/23 season.

I've noticed it also works the other way.. US site can't see the Wonder of the Seas itineraries for Dec-22-Jan-23, but the Australian site can. Weird!

Yes, I noticed CC's or spending OBC via planner isn't working either. The browser and cookies are not the issue. Tried multiple devices. Had a similar issue once, booked via US site due to thousands in price difference but when I called up about it they couldn't see it and had to divert the call to US call centre.

I think they do, but you have to pay in USD if I remember correctly. It's no big deal, I just like to check the price regularly to see if I can save some cash, but noticing some Royal IT issues in the last few weeks. Several itineraries I have booked, Alaska, Med, etc don't show anymore. Australia : even though it says 11 -14 only shows 2 Singapore: shows all 4

Anyone else noticed the Australian and NZ site not working properly last week or so? Heaps of itineraries not showing. Switching to US, Singapore, etc, works fine Making my weekly check to reprice very difficult
