happy cruisers 2 Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 I sometimes look at available cabins for future cruises and see what seems like a large number of them still available several months out. Made me wonder if anyone has ever seen RC cancel a cruise when too many cabins went unsold? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ampurp85 Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 I heard it's rare and keep in mind the majority of people are impulse buyers. So they often wait until 3-6mths before they purchase anything. RCIfan1912 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenland in September. It seems like a lot of OV balcony cabins still available. Maybe that's usual for 7 months out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesszy94 Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 This sailing is in 11 days, and there's still a whole heap of Balcony cabins available. They'll probably still sail with a bunch of cabins empty. RCIfan1912 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharla Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 A cruise wouldn't be canceled if some cabins are empty. It's better to sail with some people than no people! But I'd bet it will fill up a lot more between now and then. RCIfan1912 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steverk Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 Royal rarely canels cruises and they usually give a clear explanation when they do. Examples include a whole ship charter or mechanical issue. They never say there aren't enough cabins sold. However, they do occasionally redeploy ships for a month or two. I suppose you could say that's canceling for insufficient demand, but it would be a group of sailings and done months in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 There's some routes that are naturally thin routes. Those are canceled out by the Caribbean runs that are at 110% each trip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that's usual for 7 months out. That’s a lot of balcony cabins available! I guess pricing out at roughly $7,500 for 2 guests people have no interest? Looks like a great chance to royal up for everyone! WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
