That's supposedly for 2024 though, which is definitely wrong. I think the website is playing up for you there.

Will probably just replace Anthem in Southampton and Singapore.

I think it will be Anthem and Quantum for 25/26, purely based off Alaska ships.

Interesting, looks like Ovation might be replaced with Anthem in Australia for the 25/26 then.

Cool... now drop the Icon prices because it's not new anymore

But come on RCI... you can't be serious??? *disclaimer this is AUD.. but still 4K+ for an interior? this is getting beyond a joke

Never book on the Australian site when a new ship is released. No idea why they do it but it's always way higher, wait a month and it will drop. Noticed the same for Odyssey, Wonder and Icon releases.

Just got to Port Canaveral.. Qantas lost our bags in San Francisco.. looks like I’m going to be the proud owner of a lot of Royal Caribbean merchandise!!!

Half my group got covid onboard Ovation so not sure why they even bother anymore!

Took a photo but no one checked boarding in Sydney on Ovation.

It seems like contract length varies but in this case it is 7 months on ship. 9 months in total including rehearsals.

Thanks, I believe that does not start until after 6 months.

Long time Royal Caribbean fan here.. super proud and excited that my daughter will be performing as part of the next cast joining Wonder of the Seas for the shows Voices, Effectors II and Tap Factory. We are from Australia and she has recently travelled to FIU in North Miami for rehearsals. Her name is Chloe, so if you see her on there from May-2023 onwards say 'Hi' to her for me! Currently planning several trips over there to see her! Can't wait!!!

I got an Ovation one in 2019, was on there last in Jan 2023 and they didn't have any! I am hoping Wonder have them in May when we sail on her.

I need to book a specific Wonder sailing for 3 people. Not really concerned about room type. When choosing 4 people per cabin the room options available change and there is a cheaper guarantee fare available. What's to stop me booking for 4 people and then doing 1 person as a no show? Is there any problem in doing this?

Was on Ovation in Jan and they had the smaller ones which I'm guessing are the 330ml. Drank plenty of them!

I think eventually we will have year round Q class to coincide with Lelepa. That would pull one out of Alaska so it make sense that another one might head over this side of the world.

I don't think many ships in Jan have completed their proper itinerary.

Both ways can have their pros and cons. Have booked Caribbean cruises from both sites, in my experience it is easier to book from Aus site if you need to call up about anything as they will divert you to a different call centre if you have booked in the US which was a bit of a pain. But sometimes it can be $1000's cheaper from the US site even after currency conversion, kid's sail free promos, etc..

Captains Corner on Ovation this morning… Lelepa should be open for the 2026 season.

On Ovation now.. Mystery Island and Port Vila cancelled due to bad weather. Heading from Noumea to New Zealand Bay of Islands instead.

Boarding Ovation on the 15th, let's see if we make Mystery Island. Not very confident.

Will cancel my Virgin Voyages cruise instantly if Royal put a ship in Melbourne!

I think Voyager came to Melbourne a few times, probably the biggest to do so.
