We cruise out of San Juan January 2027 on brilliance. That should give plenty of time.  Port of call I'm excited for is Dominica. One of the very few I haven't been to yet. 

When would we see more 2027 cruises released?

I sailed there last January out of San Juan. Did you check those sailings?

They don't have any on the schedule.

Seeing that Aruba and Curacao are 8 night cruises if Royal were to do a Trinidad and Tobago would that potentially be a 10 night cruise out of Florida seeing how far south the island is? 

I remember a few years ago on Anthem on one of our winter cruises we made it all the way down to Grenada but that was a 13 night cruise out of New York.  It was such an amazing cruise to be able to start in the US and visit islands like Martinique, Barbados and Grenada and there were other islands Anthem stop at on that 13 night cruise but I was shock at how far south we went and it was really the main reason I booked that particular cruise because we were going to islands not normally visited on a normal 7 night cruise leaving from the US mainland.  

I know Oasis Class ships are limited as to the ports they can visit but a cruise like that on an Oasis Class ship I would book it in a heartbeat without thinking twice. 

We just did Panama from Tampa on a nine night. and last year did Grenada out of Miami on a 9 night

Distance. It's sufficiently far from US homeports that it takes longer than a week to get to, so that limits the appeal/market for US cruises that prefer 7 night sailings (or shorter)

Thank you. I've been trying to get to there. We have been liking the 9 night ones lately. 

Why have cruises to there went away? 

Last time royal cancelled all of empresses itinerary and put a new Cuba one up. Then if I remember right royal promised to build them a new pier and port facility by a certain time frame and of course royal didn't die to the reimplemented sanctions. So Cuba sued royal for not fulfilling it. 

   I don't think any cruise lines will invest there due to the fact the sanctions could be reinstated that fast.

Maybe small ships with heavy prices will jump on the opportunity while it's there.

Taking friends on their first cruise. 5 day Alaska round trip from Seattle.

Biden lift the trump sanctions. But will trump just reinstate them?

I'm doubting we will return to cruising but I know those cruises were very sought after. And I am away of the fiasco lawsuits from and to Cuba after last time. 

Thought.

Just sailed on serenade. Thought it was fabulous. I don't see a need to retire and build new. 

Saw  a headline that said this. Any word on it?

Post your meal menus if you could.

Was there free lobster tail any of the days?

Casinos in Vegas share lists.

Your cruise invoice should state your dining type. We downloaded menus from google search as Matt and others have posted the standardized ones. App will have specific cruise menus a few days before cruise. You could check now.

Menus are pretty much always available. They don’t really change cruise to cruise. Reservations should have been available long ago. Are you positive you didn’t accidentally select a standard dining slot? I’ve always been able to make my time reservations several months in advance. If it’s not available by now, you will probably have to make them on board as your CP will be locked down in a few days 

In the past I've been able to see the menu and make reservations months in advance. We sail in a little over a week. Still nothing. When should I expect it?

Serenade 1/3

I thought for under the bridges and in the canals were the 2 definite criteria.

That was just a test load so Royal can check for glitches, issues, mistakes, etc. The actual release will be next week as scheduled.

Is there an updated release schedule? Mine says week of Nov 11th.

What's up with the releases?

They were up for about a day, and it didn't seem to be a complete list since it was only to jan 27 when it was supposed to be April 27. 

Now they've been gone a few days. 

Yep. Now they are gone. Hope there are more to come. Wasn't thrilled on the ones that were up. 

We will be there in January 

More of the same old same old. Hoping to hit dominica, st Vincent, and Trinidad tobago

We have a GTY stateroom. When do they actually assign the room number usually. 

Thank you

Serenade jan 3rd. 

Will it be the same as pdcc? Where most of it is free and a portion will be an upcharge?

My time dining disappeared from the app. Any insite on this serenade jan 3rd

Following. 

There is typically a Release Schedule. I haven't seen one yet.
