I've reported the fake one, as I'm sure many others have, too.

Not that Facebook cares.

Both are the same height.

Mine was only filtered to Jan 2026 - April 2026 and there was nothing.

What do we think about the fact that Radiance and Serenade are blocked out for 2026?

Brilliance is there too... 🤔 Wonder what Royal are going to do with her.
What about when Serenade finishes her world cruise later this year? Do we know what they're going to do with her?

Cruises are live now.

Yeah they are classifying it as amplified. There was an announcement about it when it happened. I followed it closely because I was booked to go on it just after the amplification and was super excited following the reveal of the other ships that got amplified, hence the big disappointment at the time. 
 
Royal has it listed on their site with the amplified ships.

Don't forget the blue hull! 

A Yowie or big foot or something? Are Yowies pink though?

Schedule releases have been coming out around 2-3z on the Wednesday of that week.

I think we have a fairly good choice of itineraries here ,sure could be better but our biggest problem is distance.
We have 3 distinct destinations,
Australian coastal,north or south and they are different .Tropical or temperate.
New Zealand with its fiords.
The islands like Noumea with a French influence and Vanuatu.

A captain on Ovation in Australia was talking about Discovery class .
A ship somewhere between Radiance and Voyager class in size.

Brilliance is mobile off Sydney, looks like it’s building up for the release of the 25-26 season.
 

Test loads are up ahead of next week's release.

And if it breaks down again we won’t be far from a place to fix it .
It was supposed to go to noumea and that’s a couple of days from nowhere.

It appears Brilliance is delayed.
 It was supposed to go to Sydney OPT around lunchtime today,Thursday.
Word is it will now be Sunday and do a short cruise to Tasmania before the transpacific.
Sydney ports.

I notice I can now use Air2Sea to book flights for the cruises in Australia and New Zealand with the option to pay later for economy and premium economy.
Previously it used to say not available in your region.
 
 

I received a RC email today advertising Wiggles themed sailings for the summer of 2025-26 that will go on sale 10th of April. So lock that date in that itineraries open to the public. I don't remember if C&A members get access one day earlier still?

This is getting around, don’t know how genuine it is .
 

The transpacific is still on sale,so it looks like they will fix it locally. Probably dock it in Newcastle or Kembla .
