If you know you are not taking the one in 2011, why not go ahead and move the booking to 2012 now. Pick a date and grab the cabin you want. It is unlikely you will find a lower price as time progresses. Prices will only go up as more and more cabins are booked in a particular category. With the new ships coming on-line, the only Ship/Itinerary I see possibly decreasing in the foreseeable future would be the Magic 7 day itineraries out of Port Canaveral in the first quarter of 2012. Demand and prices could decrease if people hold off to book on the Fantasy. Some 2012 dates for the Fantasy are already getting pricey for inside cabins, since there are not as many as on the Magic and Wonder. I expect the Dream would experience the same thing. If you have to sail when the kids are out of school that will automatically put you into a higher season with higher demand, and that means higher prices, particularly as time progresses and cabins sell. Fuel prices are also going back up, hopefully they will not put a fuel surcharge in place, but they could. You would likely be exempt if you book the date in 2012 now, who knows what will happen if you wait. Just some things to think about. Hope this helps.
