Langolier Posted July 12, 2022 Report Share Posted July 12, 2022 My wife and I are both retired, did Allure in Jan22 and booked in Oasis for Jan23. Since we plan to cruise each January now, should we visit Next Cruise every time we board? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since we plan to cruise each January now, should we visit Next Cruise every time we board? Welcome to the message boards! I'd recommend you book the January cruises when the new itineraries come out. Typically, new itineraries get released twice per year: November/December March/April If the new itinerary for your annual cruise comes out in November or December, I'd advocate booking then, and not waiting until January to book.

Done Posted July 13, 2022 Report Share Posted July 13, 2022 I would like the cruise lines to publish the date new itineraries would be offered. Southwest Airline informs us when new reservation intervals will open and the length of the interval. They can plan ahead, so could the cruise lines On Southwest website: Now accepting reservations through January 04, 2023. On July 21, 2022, our schedule will open for sale through March 08, 2023.

Prior to the shutdown they followed an annual cadence more closely than they do now. Maybe now that all ships are back in service they'll fall back into the regular pattern.

I really do appreciate the information the blog provides. If one doesn't know about this blog is this information also available directly from Royal Caribbean?

I don't know that they announce it to the public in advance. If you get marketing emails from royal often those include announcements that some deployments have opened but I don't know that they send out the schedule of future opening dates in marketing emails.

Summer Bee Sweet Posted July 13, 2022 Report Share Posted July 13, 2022 January 2020 I booked onboard for January 2022 in a grand suite. The extra OBC is nice. So, January 2023 you should be able to book January 2025 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
