Gubaru Posted November 24, 2023 Report Share Posted November 24, 2023 Trying to look for summer 2025 sail dates out of cape liberty. But it appears it's the only port that does not have dates available yet. Anyone have any insight, sorry if this has been asked already. Thanks.

PPPJJ-GCVAB Posted November 24, 2023 Report Share Posted November 24, 2023 No insight…sorry. But I have been waiting for that schedule too. Although I am now contemplating doing the Transatlantic on Odyssey leaving from NJ April 27, 2025…going to Rome and stopping in Azores and 3 ports in Spain first. Price I saw today is $3450 for 2 people in OVBalcony. I have it on hold but will likely pay the deposit and keep considering it over the next 6 months or so. But I will still be looking for the summer 2025 schedule from their…wondering which ships will be there! Gubaru and WAAAYTOOO 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FionaMG Posted November 24, 2023 Report Share Posted November 24, 2023 NJ will probably be included in the Short Caribbean, Los Angeles and North East release, which is not due to go on sale until week beginning February 12th. https://creative.rccl.com/Sales/Royal/Deployment/2025_2026/2025-2026_Deployment_Opening_Schedule.pdf RCIfan1912 and JohnK6404 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, we have to wait until February, right around Valentines day, for those dates to get released.

RCIfan1912 Posted November 24, 2023 Report Share Posted November 24, 2023 The February release actually works perfectly for us because we have been waiting patiently also. This gives us time to pay off Christmas bills and our February cruise on board expenses. PPPJJ-GCVAB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gubaru Posted November 24, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2023 Thanks everyone, I didn't realize they released dates in bits and pieces. Waited months for the 2025 summer dates and I guess we get to still wait for those dates for a couple more months. Thanks again.

Looking forward to trying Symphony I agree, we did Oasis last year and kinda looking forward to Symphony. I am looking forward to Odyssey too. We are big fans of Anthem which I know is a bit controversial if a ship class but we love it. Anthem makes more sense here in NJ because of the indoor pool but Odyssey seems very cool. We are waiting for the new schedule to be released so we can book Odyssey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm crossing my fingers for wonder Wonder will be doing 3/4N short cruises (likely from FLL or MIA) once Star takes over for her in PC.

Apparently Michael Bayley just announced that Wonder will be hitting Galveston. Well..he said Galveston should be looking for "something WONDERful" in the very near future OCSC Mike 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well..he said Galveston should be looking for "something WONDERful" in the very near future I wish they were getting something STARry instead, lol. Thanks for the info. A reliable source was given (and shared) the list of ships associated with each release date/type of sailing and Wonder was on the short Caribbean list. I don't pay close attention to any port except PC (you already knew that) so I'm not sure if this means Royal changed their minds or it will do the shorties from south FL and then eventually make its way to Galveston in the future. I see Harmony is still there doing 6-8N into March 2026 and they don't have 3/4N cruises. ScottD and Pattycruise 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure how it would be in Galveston that soon unless they're going to have 2 Oasis class ships there. You may have to settle for a 3/4 B2B on Utopia out of PC (it's pretty much the same as Wonder) and we may not have your fancy South Florida restaurants but you liked that place I realized was pretty close to me... El Patron, right? Lovetocruise2002 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
