Kathleen Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 Having canceled (Lift and Shifted) my 2020 cruise to 2021, I am now looking forward to the 2022-2023 itineraries being released the end of this year. Anyone else looking forward to planning more. It seems to give me excitement and hope for a time that is hopefully less chaotic. Also when I L&S'd to 2021, I have a 2021 cruise I am going to have to move to 2022. Its a refundable deposit, so I am just waiting to do that at a more sane time. So what's your dream itineraries for 2022-2023, if you could do the planning for Royal. Mine is an Artic Circle cruise to include Tronso and Iceland. They offered it this year but did not in 2021. Second one would be another Alaska itinerary with the Icy Point Straight stops for 2022. We can dream cant we? Ogilthorpe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This chaos has made me forget the great sailings!! I think it might edge it out since I have sailed Alaska previously. Ogilthorpe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am hoping RCI does a cruise from Florida to California in 14 days (full transit) like other cruise lines, at some point. It would be a smaller ship due to cruise length, but I think it would be awesome to show the kids that much history (and see it for myself, as well!).

Kathleen Posted June 24, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 My other dream itinerary would be one that includes Turks and Caicos as well as ABC islands. A 9-11 day sailing would be perfect. I know it is a pipe dream, since Carnival owns the port in Turks and Caicos, but that's what this post is about, dreaming into existence the perfect intermarries.

Hutcherl Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 Southern carribean(ABC islands) out of Baltimore on a oasis class ship!!

JLMoran Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 For me, first choice would be a Norway & Iceland that explores a number of the fjords in each country and has a good number of port stops to see the culture / try the local cuisine. Second choice would be an itinerary that stops at Croatia, Montenegro, the Greek Isles (Mykonos, Santorini, Athens), then Italy; maybe including Valetta, but I think that's on the wrong side of Italy to fall inside the usual Greek Isles / Amalfi Coast kind of itinerary.

Va4fam Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 At this point, my dream cruise is any sailing to just about anywhere. Hope we are back to normal by then. But Greek Isles would be a close second. Kathleen, Ogilthorpe and Neesa 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zambia-Zaire Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 Royal finding a permanent home on the Pacific Coast between Vancouver & San Diego, a flagged ship in Hawaii, & some overnight stay at key ports like San Fran, Coco Cay, Lahaina, Antigua, areas in the Mediterranean, to name a few.

We did a Iceland land vacation last February and it was our BEST vacation so far! We saw the Northern Lights 3 nights in a row (one being from the plane flying to Iceland). We now want to go back and see what their summer is like. Our tour guide told us their high temp in summer is around 60. Norway/Iceland cruise will be on my radar too!

sk8erguy1978 Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 Any on the new Icon Class. Have not sailed on a new ship since Oasis of the Seas in January of 2010, believe we were the 7th or so sailing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ampurp85 Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 I want Hawaii but I can get in on that Panama Canal too........ I would also take a TA that combines two awesome itineraries like Alaska and Denmark, Iceland and Spain, or Dubai and Australia.

FManke Posted July 2, 2020 Report Share Posted July 2, 2020 At this point, I'm still hoping that our Greek Isle cruise next year, Lift and Shifted from this year is still a go. With the World moving so fast and changing day to day, it's hard to think that far in advance. That being said, Alaska or one of European cruises would be great. We are probably one of the few cruisers that don't want to sail to warm weather ports. We prefer the cooler climates. Happy cruising!

FionaMG Posted July 2, 2020 Report Share Posted July 2, 2020 Aiming for Panama Canal late November / early December 2022 to celebrate a landmark anniversary. DH sailed through it a number of times way back when he worked on the old Sitmar line but I have never been. (Closest was @twangster's live review, which was simply jaw-dropping.) twangster 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
