When will late fall 2021 cruises be released?

Any hints out there? Any rumors? Dying for something to look forward to.

Normally it would have happened by now, this year is truly unprecedented.

Generally it's around 18 months out, and over the last few years DCL seems to have adopted this pattern for release dates on new cruises:

• "Winter": first cruise in the new year up to April/May (not including spring Panama Canal and Transatlantic) – sometime between late September to early November
• "Summer": cruises from about May to August/September (not including fall Panama Canal and Transatlantic) – mid February to early April.
• "Fall": September until the end of the year (ending with the last cruise starting in the old year) – generally around May.

That said, there's no telling when/if cruising will start up anytime soon.

After they have a restart date. I suspect they don't want 125% credits on Opening Day.

or the next itinerary release will be 25% higher than last year due to all the people now who have "company store" 125% credits.

As someone hoping to book Fall 2021 or Spring 2022 without a cancellation credit... I sure hope not.

My gut feeling: until Disney has a better idea when/how cruises will resume, they aren't going to announce new itineraries.

I agree, I rather imagine that any negotiations for future itineraries in progress when this all started have been suspended for the time being.
