How to know when rates are released

[Wes1stTrip2016]

Is there an email or a website that watches for release dates for upcoming cruise rates?

I want to book for October 2017 as soon as they become available.

Thank you!

I assume that everyone that has cruised DCL will receive an e-mail notifying them of the new dates and "exciting new itineraries" TWO (count um, 2) days before EVERYONE can start booking online.

I've been on over 10 DCL cruises, so I will receive that same e-mail and will be able to book the new dates the next day by phone.

USUALLY I hear about the new dates BEFORE I get that e-mail here on the DIS (or other sources). AND I do NOT watch these boards every day (well I have for the past couple of months ). BUT my smartphone knows that I am interested in DCL cruise (google knows all ... somehow) and will notify me of posts here or on some other blogs about upcoming itineraries.

A travel agent would do that for you, too. And probably give you some sweet OBC to boot.

I've sent an email to the TA that advertises on this site, so maybe they will give me a heads up. I will continue to check here frequently as well.

Not sure if you know, but the the travel agency that advertises on this site (Dreams Unlimited) owns this site.

You would think. I've been on 5 DCL cruises, have 6 and 7 booked, and have NEVER received an email telling me of dates and itineraries. I've given up trying. They can email me well enough when something changes with my reservation, so who knows why they won't send me marketing emails. It's not like I've been once and have said please never contact me again. Lol.

I just stalk these boards and Scott's blog when it's getting close to guesstimated release dates

I've been on 3 DCL cruises and also never receive emails from them. I know they have my email address as I have received payment/itinerary confirmations etc before but nothing about cruise specials, release dates etc.

Are you in Australia too? Wondering if that's the common denominator...

I sometimes get the announcement emails and sometimes don't. I'm in the States and have been on 9 DCL cruises. I just keep an eye out here or DCL's social media. Not that I'm actively shopping at the moment.

Yes I'm in Australia.
