Hi everybody. I've been absent from these boards for a while so I am out of the loop. Is anyone willing to let me know what the scoop is about the ships in the summer? I see the Magic is in Europe for the next two summers. If I want take another 7 night in the summer am I out of luck?

Yes no 7 night caribbeans in 2010 and 2011.

When DCL had both ships in the Caribbean in 2009 and 2006, it had to discount the 7 night cruises a lot, and the summer is considered low season re the possible storms and hurricane's.

Wonder is in Bahamas 3/4/5 nights.

In 2011 Dream covers 3/4/5 night Bahamas, and Wonder is in West coast USA and Alaska on 7 night cruises.

I was asking for that one wasn't I?

Thanks Andrew Derek UK for the info. Are there any rumors around about the other new ship (I can't recall the name) taking the Magic's Caribbean route?

Fantasy will take over the Magic 7 night Caribbean trips in 2012.

IE

Dream is doing 3/4 and 5 night Bahamas, both it and Fantasy have a contract with Port Canaveral for 3 years each after arrival. So cant do anything else, re number of port visits, and contracts with Caribbean ports.

Wonder has a two year contract with LA, for about 50% of each year, which can be extended for a further three years, a year at a time.

Thanks for the info Andrew. Looks like I have a decision to make!

We currently have our 1st Western Caribbean booked in Oct and I am leaning on cancelling & waiting for the Fantasy.
