tmbasuhre 3 Report post Posted October 31, 2019 I am booked on Oasis December 1 (second sailing after drydock) just noticed that the first 3 sailings after drydock are no longer available for booking. Freaking out a little that these sailings will be canceled....trying not to be paranoid but......not working. Any insight? This is affecting the first 3 sailings after dry dock....I know Matt Hochberg is booked on the November 24th sailing because I've heard him speak of on the podcast. I will be so sad if my sailing is canceled...... 2 Mrs. RoyalMoyal and Jmccaffrey reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twangster 18,915 Report post Posted October 31, 2019 Welcome to the message boards. Only time will tell. They were bookable earlier so it is odd that all 3 went sold out overnight. 1 tmbasuhre reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed, I have 3 sailings booked. Just what I need, more cancelled cruises and more FCC. I avoided the first one on Nov. 24 for fear it might cancel. Cancelling the two after that would be a surprise and messes up my December. There are a couple of cruises I would have booked but now it's getting late and the flood of people displaced will gobble up all remaining. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FionaMG 432 Report post Posted October 31, 2019 Oh no! The fact of that being the first cruise after dry dock was one of the main reasons why we opted for Adventure over Oasis that weekend even though Oasis was cheaper. I remembered reading about the cancelled Navigator sailing last year after dry dock and didn't want to risk it. I really hope it works out for you. 1 tmbasuhre reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LandstromCruise 128 Report post Posted November 1, 2019 30 minutes ago, tmbasuhre said: if it is going to be canceled I wonder when we will be notified? I would think within the next week or so they would be making a decision on the 24th cruise. The ship probably needs to start heading this way by the 12th or 13th to be here in time for that cruise. You will have an extra week, but I would think at this point they have an idea if they are 2-3 weeks behind schedule. 1 tmbasuhre reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mrs. RoyalMoyal 66 Report post Posted November 1, 2019 Uggh. I will switch to Freedom... if possible. We shall see.

ChrisK2793 211 Report post Posted November 1, 2019 What happens if it gets cancelled? Do they 100% refund your money? I don’t really want to have almost $7k tied up in a Future Cruise Credit when our next 3 cruises after that are already paid for. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KathyC 871 Report post Posted November 1, 2019 We're on the Dec 8th sailing, and one of our friends had a TA call Royal last night, and they said the sailings are sold out. I was able to make dinner reservations through my Cruise Planner last night, and another member of our group called and was able to switch reservations with no issues. I do know that last week there were openings in MTD and when I called yesterday they said it had filled up and we were put on a wait list. So could be that they just filled. Maybe a movie is being filmed on board and the crew snapped up anything remaining, that can last a couple weeks...LOL 1 RWDW1204 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't usually join FB groups for sailings, as there is no way to confirm people are actually on the sailing I don't like strangers knowing when I'm not home. I'm not very trusting, LOL. There are too many people out there who use social media for bad reasons. From what others I am sailing with are sharing, looks like it's a fun group. I may have to join this one time.

RWDW1204 250 Report post Posted November 1, 2019 Don't know if this is a good sign or not, but we've received 2 emails from our travel agent in the past 3 days with no mention of anything going wrong. And our Cruise Planner is still open and taking reservations. Also DBP is now $49, lowest it's been since spring I think. Keep the faith!🙏 1 tmbasuhre reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don’t really want to have almost $7k tied up in a Future Cruise Credit when our next 3 cruises after that are already paid for. Not that I think it's going to come to it for these sailings but... If FCC were to be issued you can apply it existing sailings, even if those are paid in full. In that case you get a credit card refund once the FCC is applied to a sailing that's paid in full. The only catch is FCC is per person in that person's name. If the same people are not sailing in the future their FCC has to be used on a cruise they are sailing on.

twangster 18,915 Report post Posted November 1, 2019 Oasis and Odyssey disappeared from the website entirely today for a few minutes. A brand new search with no filters yielded only 24 ships: Then a few minutes later they re-appeared in the list. Perhaps they are having IT issues again. Or we can start a rumor that Oasis and Odyssey have been sold 🙂 5 melmar02, KathyC, RWDW1204 and 2 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
