I know, the prices are crazy!
That's what I am worried about.

New York departures did not sell very well in 2018 and 2019. DCL had to offer 20% discounts to fill the ship. Hence the reduction in 2020 and probably future years as well.Wondering if the Magic will make her way back to New York in 2021. She has fewer 2020 NY sailings than in the past
Yes, but it depends on how much demand there is for their sailings. The best price DCL will offer for that sailing will be day one. If the sailing isn't selling very well, then you'll get those offers that'll be cheaper than day one after the PIF date, but there are restrictions that come with that. If you want to go on a particular sailing, don't chance an offer coming out in the future because it isn't guaranteed.Do prices go up the longer you wait? Is it best to book as soon as new dates are released?

Which months are considered summer? Through Aug? Sept?Nope. Feb"ish" 2020 will be Summer 2021 itineraries.

Any predictions on when they will release the second half of ‘21?
As a Texan, I hope that's true and that a ship besides the Wonder will also sail from Galveston. I'd love to be able to just drive to and from our cruise, instead of having to fly. We prefer the Dream class ships, though, so hope that a non-classic will sail out of Galveston eventually.Noticed that Disney and Galveston have a new deal that will double the sailings from there. No doubt a result of new ships
A big part of the reason they don’t sell well is many people who would sail DCL out of NYC in a heartbeat cannot because they are during the school year.
As Disney adds 3 new ships (which likely to be stationed in Port Canaveral), I would expect Miami, New Orleans, and Galveston to get more cruises originating there in the winter, some of which will be the Dream class. Can these ports support Dream class ship sizes already?
Feb 2021 cruises have already been released. Or do you mean 'hopefully they are releasing the summer 2021 cruises IN Feb!'Anxiously waiting the Feb cruise listings
