PeachyKeane89 Posted October 24, 2022 Report Share Posted October 24, 2022 Is there any intel on when RC will release itineraries beyond April 2024 for ships beside Icon? I would love to compare prices of Icon sailings to other sailings happening around the same time. Wanted to do Icon, but if I can afford 2 sailings (a family sailing and a mommy and daddy only sailing) on an Oasis or Quantum class ship for the same price as one family trip on Icon, would prefer to do that and leave Icon for a bit later down the line. ^_^ DaveWithHat, Neesa and Big Tule 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cakemeister Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 I'm hoping to see a world cruise for 2024-2025. I haven't seen any news about the 2023-24 ultimate world cruise lately.

Merlot Posted February 5, 2023 Report Share Posted February 5, 2023 I have been wondering if Royal is permanently pulling out of cruises departing from san juan. The ports of call are limited and ship smaller. We loved going out of san juan on Voyager class and Freedom and the ports of call were amazing. Anybody have any insight?

I don’t see RCI leaving PR. You can reach any destination in the Southern Caribbean in a week long voyage.

We’ve sailed out of San Juan for years on Voyager Class and once on Freedom and was surprised to see it downsized to Jewel in March 2023. Then I realized San Juan isn’t even a port of call for other ships. There must be some dispute between PR and Royal Caribbean but it’s disappointing. The Jewel is just a tad to small for us.

I'm wondering the same thing, as of right now starting with their November 2024 schedule and onward into 2025 Royal has 14 ships without a published schedule. I'm wondering if Utopia and to a certain extent China are the problem. I'm thinking Royal is probably trying to figure out if demand in China will be strong enough to justify sending an Oasis Class ship to China. If the answer is no and demand in China hasn't recovered to justify an Oasis Class ship Royal then has to figure out what to do with 6 Oasis Class ships and an Icon Class ship. Of course one Oasis Class ship will be sailing out of Galveston, but that still would leave 5 Oasis Class ships and Icon sailing out of Florida. It would be nice to see Royal homeport an Oasis Class in San Juan for the winter season and sail it to the Southern Caribbean or even to Columbia and ports of call near Panama canal (I know Oasis Class ships can't go through the canal) but if ports in the Southern Caribbean and Central America can handle an Oasis Class ship why not homeport a ship in San Juan. Whatever the wrench is that is holding up the winter 2024/2025 schedule Royal needs to figure it out fast and get their schedule up and open for sale. The competition already has most of their schedule posted and open for sale. AlmondFarmer, Rackham and asquared17 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asquared17 Posted February 22, 2023 Report Share Posted February 22, 2023 that's a lot of oasis class ships tbh i don't think i realized that. although they could probably homeport another one in port canaveral, so there would be two in each FL port, on each weekend day -- it COULD work. maybe. this is why i just go on the cruises and am not involved in the planning of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonOasis Posted February 24, 2023 Report Share Posted February 24, 2023 Nothing about Utopia yet. I get Royal wants to keep the focus on Icon and rightfully so as Utopia is just another Oasis Class Ship. However she is currently scheduled for delivery some time during the spring of 2024. Unless that delivery schedule slips or Royal intends on delaying taking delivery or delaying Utopia entry into service then perhaps by September or October of this year Royal will finally release some information on Utopia including putting some cruises on sail. Given the option I would for sure get on Utopia before getting on Icon. Utopia’s arrival and several other reasons are why I havent’ yet booked any cruises in 2024 on Icon. asquared17 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
