2015 sail dates?

[sweetlovin']

I leave Sunday and while I am thrilled at the possibility of OBB, if hawaii comes out in Sept, I won't be able to book that with any incentive. I also won't have internet access to be able to book on my own. I was hoping they would come out before I left, but now I am hoping they wait until I get back. 2-3 weeks.

I feel the same way! We are leaving to Tokyo in 2 weeks and want the dates released when we are not traveling.

Hope you have a blast on your cruise! We all know you will

Try using a TA. Leave them your CC number and the category you want and let them book it for you at release. You can always cancel. You also move your OBB to that cabin. Your TA can do a quick switch. Always works.

You can also ask onboard if Hawaii has been released. The OBB desk will likely know via emails they receive.

Princess has cruises to Oct 2015
Holland America has cruises to Nov 2015
NCL has cruises to Dec 2015
Carnival has cruises to April 2016
Celebrity has cruises to Dec 2016

So...um....no DCL is not in line with everyone else.

 

[chinarider]

I don't know about the others, but I have been checking Princess for the summer of 2015 and they do not have their full summer schedule out.

The only cruises that celebrity has out past may 2015 are for the Galapagos isles, hardly a full schedule.

This I planned on doing every night except Sunday. My 9yo daughter is waiting for the Med with Greece summer 2015 and that I can book with incentive.

I'm back and forth on the TA. I normally use United because they give 8 miles per dollar up to 30k miles per cruise. HUGE for me because we want to hit Disney Shanghai 2016. Assuming it's not available on the weekend and I am still silver, it would only be Tuesday or Wednesday, I am stuck, if it is announced Monday or Tuesday. I will be off the ship by 10am Thursday..at the latest.

I really am back and forth on the TA. My 11yo daughter (who has been waiting for a Hawaiian cruise to come out) would say just use the TA to make sure we get it. I would have a hard time booking with a TA then canceling and rebooking on my own. It makes me feel guilty.

What would you do? Would you use the TA or would you chance it?

I'm not cruising soon but even if I was I'd give my TA my CC and category request and financial limit and let her book it. I've already done that for Hawaii in case it's released. Either way, if it's in my financial limit, she's he getting my business. On board I make sure the booking is done under her name.

Who is your TA?

I just got off the magic and wanted to book Alaska for summer 2015 while onboard and was told by the Rep that Disney isn't positive they are doing Alaska in 2015 and that's why those aren't released yet. Something about the ships fitting through the canals with the duck tail addition. Do you think that may be what's holding up the release of the remaining itineraries? I just went ahead and grabbed a spring break one. if they come out with Hawaii I may have to rethink my spring break trip.

Tanya Uythoven at Small World Vacations. She's awesome!

That is interesting..

Oh that is great!! I didn't think about giving a budget. I guess I should have thought of that.

If the Wonder goes to Hawaii in Sept/Oct. I'm wondering when the PC cruise will be. Nov/Dec maybe????. Hmm... I wish they would hurry up and end the suspense.

 

[CruznLexi]

The canal would most likely be late Sept or early Oct

 

[Ofinn]

That would make sense. If the last Alaska cruise is the first week of September, then Hawaii, and then PC. Thanks

That doesn't seem logical. They just did the short version of dry dock so they could get the regulations out of the way and not add the duck tail until the PC is finished. They didn't add one and they don't have another dry dock planned between now and the summer of 2015 so it doesn't seem like there is a reason not to do the PC. As well as Alaska sells I just can't see them not going to Alaska in 2015,
