I think I mentioned a few times on this board they wouldn't sell. The Canadian cruises just don't for some reason and this one was particularly problematic in that it was a one way cruise. There's a lot of discounts on DCL right now. Even some GT rates in November and December. There also offering EU discounts this Fall which I've never seen before.
The transportation is an issue, for sure. Our NCL cruise was originally supposed to be r/t out of NYC, but ended up changing to a one way. Flying into Quebec City can be pricey, and flying into Montreal adds another step to the journey. In the end it worked out for us. We found a reasonably priced flight to Quebec City, and are going to spend the weekend there prior to our cruise so we're pretty happy with how it all turned out. But I can understand why some folks wouldn't want to fool with it. Cruising r/t out of NYC is such a treat for those of us that live in the Northeast.
It will be interesting to see what DCL does next year. There really is no way to sail round trip out of NYC and go all the way to Quebec City unless it's a very long cruise. Our NCL cruise was originally a 10 night r/t but they ended up scrapping them for one ways of between 9 and 12 days. They never said why but speculation was the new speed restriction on the Saint Lawrence river was the reason.
