Jared M. 2 Report post Posted June 18 Is Empress of the Seas and Majesty of the Seas leaving Royal Caribbean? These ships only have sailings until the end of 2019 available to be booked, yet for the rest of the ships are offering sailings through 2021. Why is this? I understand that these are RCI's oldest ships, but they were both refurbished not too long ago. If RCI were to no longer use these vessels, this would make the "Vision Class" the oldest class in the RCI fleet, allowing for the Grandeur of the Seas (b. 1996) to be RCI's oldest ship. Thoughts?

WAAAYTOOO 4,704 Report post Posted June 18 My guess is that Royal will just play a waiting game until after Nov 2020. It’s possible that the policy on Cuba could change back to the way it was and Majesty and Empress would be back on their Cuba itins again. 1 Orange Crush reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
princevaliantus 552 Report post Posted June 18 Per RCCL, they are currently revamping their itineraries and will be released very soon once finalized. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
monctonguy 1,017 Report post Posted June 18 I think its a result of Cuba being blocked, as to why they don't have any itineraries available right now.....I think they will keep these ships for awhile yet.....there is a market for them. They will be gone eventually though...even if they are sailing full they don't make Royal enough $$$ as there isn't enough stuff on them to make ppl pay to upgrade for...lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

People bring it up because you find like half of RC's fleet in there. Bottom line, it doesn't mean anything. 5 1 Larry Muster, coneyraven, FManke and 3 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

twangster 14,414 Report post Posted June 19 Put something on a website and if someone approaches you then you go to the cruise line with "I've got a buyer lined up. For a small finders fee I can put you in contact with them". What's a "small fee" when dealing with $100M deal? Good question... 1 Jaymac Radio reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
