Matt Posted March 22, 2021 Report Posted March 22, 2021 Please only reply in this thread once you see a new Adventure of the Seas sailing to book! Many of us (myself included) want to know the second new sailings become available. So I've set up this thread where we can all hit the follow button to be notified when someone does see one. Do not reply at all until you spot a new sailing to book. If you do see a sailing to book, reply with what you're seeing (web, phone, bat signal) so others can jump on it too! Thank you in advance to whomever helps spot these all first for all of us! hsweat22, joshgates, Baked Alaska and 3 others 6 Quote

It's been common for travel agents to have access while they are being loaded in the system. They don't appear on the public site yet but that should be very soon. Quote

Crown and Anchor discounts help those too so it can vary depending on status. JS rates under $1,400 pp plus taxes with no discounts. Try calling Royal to book. MICHELLE 1 Quote

JLMoran Posted March 24, 2021 Report Posted March 24, 2021 These prices are... surprisingly reasonable for 7-night sailings. I'll keep in mind the fact that many likely include C&A discounts, but this is making me really hopeful for a Bermuda booking on Vision. MICHELLE and twangster 2 Quote

So if your date is less than 90 days out you need to book through a TA (and pay in full) to have them manage it. Over 90-92 days away and you have time to transfer it. Quote

Late July is well over 100 days out so no worries getting it transferred, just don't pay in full when you book. Quote
jticarruthers Posted March 24, 2021 Report Posted March 24, 2021 Well that was frustrating, an hour on a call to not get any of the cabins I particularly wanted but I went ahead and booked June 19th in a JS for now and will see what happens. MICHELLE 1 Quote

I am very happy to see this but I do expect rates to go up as the ship books up on a particular date. Royal has to be watching and itching to nudge prices up if demand is strong.

Matt Posted March 24, 2021 Author Report Posted March 24, 2021 33 minutes ago, John Blahnik said: Any info on air? I booked my flights last week in anticipation of it going up. It's not dirt cheap, especially considering how close Orlando and Nassau are. But considering how long I've gone without a cruise, I'm willing to pay the flight prices if it means getting back on a cruise ship. Airfare is always a game anyway, and Royal Caribbean may open up flights in their system. Royal Caribbean reserved spacing for flights for their Barbados cruises, and Celebrity did the same for Millennium from St. Maarten. There could be some reserve opening for Adventure as well.

Your booking is right in the time window I'm looking at for Vision, so I think I'll be good. Asked my TA yesterday to put a hold on whatever 2B/4B cabin she can get the day the bookings open up, so I'll get a lock on the opening-day pricing. twangster 1 Quote

Marc Van Niekerk Posted March 24, 2021 Report Posted March 24, 2021 No joy here. Tried clearing content, incognito, etc. and do not see Nassau as departure port and no Adventure sailings prior to October (which is Galveston). Quote

BarbieBell Posted March 24, 2021 Report Posted March 24, 2021 My amazing Travel Agent, Michelle at MEI had me booked by 7:00 a.m. Texas time for June 19 sailing. I got air DFW non stop to Nassau $400 round trip. We chose to go a day early and booked the Marriott Courtyard and they allowed a 1 night booking. Cheers to Michelle for going the extra mile to make this one happen, but then again, that’s her style when working with you on any travel plans.

For me, there was an ad the size of a Rockefeller Christmas tree on the front page taking me right to Adventure and they even slid in the Vision of the Seas under the same ad. Then change to departure port of Nassau under South America & Caribbean like @John Blahnikmention above. Slightly different link, same results: https://www.royalcaribbean.com/cruises/?departureCode_NAS=true&shipCode_AD=true Edited March 24, 2021 by sk8erguy1978 add link and stuff Quote
MICHELLE Posted March 24, 2021 Report Posted March 24, 2021 Reminder - the ships departs @ 9PM out of Nassau - to give clients time to fly in but if you are looking for a pre or post hotel. Courtyard Nassau Downtwon- Junkanoo Beach by Marriott has some good rates, not on Paradise Island but reasonable Cruising With JT, Matt and teddy 3 Quote
