Totally agreed, Disney is pricey!!

The nice thing about Allure (and Oasis class in general) is the ship is the destination, or a big part of it.  It takes at least two cruises to see and do everything on board.  For a B2B you can stay on the ship in one port one week then get off the ship at that port the next week. 

Enjoying an Oasis class ship is a big part of the draw. 

thanks for making a great point! Have not been on the Oasis class as of yet. Can't wait!!!

Proximity wise, what else is there? Replace Belize and/or GC with Progresso?

I sure hope not Progresso, that is my least favorite port of all. BUT I could stay on the ship instead......this SHIP would be the reason we

cruised anyway.

I don't think Disney will have access to the new terminal. 

i misunderstood-- found this article, NOW i see that when Royal moves, Disney can use TERMINAL 2 on Saturdays and Sundays!

There's no other cruise line in or going to home port there?

i think Disney said they would have a ship use the new terminal as well for 1/2 the year.

Someone just posted that the VOTE PASSED and it has been APPROVED!!!

Here is what I learned from NextCruise.  

Allure from Galveston itineraries are loaded in the system but not open for booking.  First cruise will be a 4 night.  I'm guessing a 3 day deadhead repo cruise with crew only followed by a 4 night revenue cruise.  

It all starts Nov. 2021.

NextCruise said they'd call me when they open for booking.    

Can't wait!!! Please let us know as soon as you do, THANKS so much!!!!
