Thank ScottD

No, I meant 2026. I like to plan ahead. I'm thinking someone knows "who's in the know" when these schedules will come out and knows when things can be booked. I can easily set an appointment in my calendar to remind me to contact an agent. Is the schedule always release 21 Months in advance? I am getting that number from how far ahead I can see as of today (April 2025). If this is true, that would mean May 2025 will become available Aug 1st.? Purely guessing... But if I use that logic, then Oct 2026 bookings should open up in February 2024. As I said, I don't want to miss out on the good locations on the ship. It seams the Middle sells out fastest as that's where I am guessing most want to be. Or is this more of a "Ticket Master" like scenario and us common folk, can't get them fast enough?

My wife and I have been doing a cruise every 5 years since our 10th anniversary, the next cruise is planned for Oct, 2026 which will be our 35th. We have a savings account specifically for this reason that we put money into every month and by the end of the 5 years, when it comes cruise time in October, we get to have a nice vacation. The thing I am noticing just doing some "Moch Bookings" to get an idea of the cost, is a lot of the rooms are already sold out 21 Months in advance. My question is... When is a good time to engage a Travel Agent so I don't miss out on the Grand Suite room location we want if my cruise is not until October of 2026?

Thanks. I was wanting to reserve some of the Shows and the Special Dinning venues as soon as I could. I'll check in September, my cruise is Oct 16th, 2021. Thanks again.

How soon (how far out from your sailing date) can you start making other types of reservations such as for the specialty dining restaurants and entertainment venues?

Yes, it was listed on the reservation since I was using the same account that I created in 2016. There was a second question... Is there somewhere that shows how many points will be earned for the trip? I looked on my invoice and I have clicked around the Crown & Anchor Society but couldn't find anything. Again, Thanks for everything.

Not trying to hijack this thread, but I too have a question. A little Background. This is my Second RCCL Cruise. We went on our 25th Wedding anniversary in 2016. We stayed in a balcony room that earned us 7 points. This time we booked a Grand Suite and from what I understand points are doubled because of getting this room so that would add another 14 Points. My questions is... If I booked a cruise in June 2020 for 7 Days on Symphony of the Seas for a Oct 16th, 2021 sailing..., does this booking qualify for the Double Points? This would bring my total point earn for this cruise to 28, bringing my total to35, which would be nice, since it would take me to Platinum level. AND, is there somewhere that shows how many points will be earned for the trip? I looked on my invoice and I have clicked around the Crown & Anchor Society but couldn't find anything. Thanks for all you do!
