Prices? Are they out there?

 

[WishUponAStarryNight]

No Quebec cruise for 2019

We didn't book this year, to specifically go on that cruise in 2019. Grr!

Looks like a much more limited New York season overall. A quick count looks like they're going from 11 sailings in 2018 to 7 in 2019.

No Quebec cruise for 2019

We didn't book Quebec this year (since we did SWDAS on Fantasy in Jan 2018), to specifically go on that cruise in 2019. Grr!

I guess you have to go this year.

Not from what I saw on the DCL site. So I guess on Monday when Platinum can book they'll get the first look at prices.

 

[MikeGS]

Wow it looks like the EBPC starts in November and won't be Halloween on the highseas but full on MerryTime. That takes it away from being over my wedding anniversary, although that's not a problem.

The only problem is, had it been over halloween as it was the last few years one of the weeks the kids would have been on holiday, this way we'll have to take them out of school for 2.5 weeks. hrrmmmmm

Fingers crossed the price will be right when silver members can book next week!

I wish. We are sailing on RCCL to Bermuda out of Baltimore on 6/16/18. Then sailing on the RCCL Allure of the Seas 8/5/18. A 4th cruise in 2018 isn't likely. So bummed....

We have a placeholder we need to use by 2/4/19. So I guess it's back to the drawling board. We'll figure something out. Maybe and land/sea...we are DVC owners and have AP's for the parks. I'm sure a plan will come together, just not the one the 3 of us were hoping for unfortunately...

I don't understand the scale back of cruises out of NY. If anything I'd think they'd expand them. Smh...

 

[Geomom]

Hmmm...just noticed that Magic is 'missing' a 7 nt cruise...10/5-10/11...there is a 5 nt cruise on 9/30 and a 5 nt on 10/12...nothing listed in between those. I wonder if it's a charter...and where it's going...

 

[Debbru]

Maybe I'm not seeing something right but == the last Alaska cruise for 2019 returns to Vancouver on 9/16/19 but the repositioning cruise from Vancouver to San Diego leaves on 9/30. That leaves a 2 week gap. Could they be doing a round trip to Hawaii from Vancouver?

 

[Mika02]

I really am going to have to assume that one of their ships have to be dedicated to Hawaii once they open the new ones after 2020 because they will not have done it in 5 years by 2020. Disappointed slightly but I'm going to move forward with my plans for Europe and a Mediterranean cruise on RCL for next year and pray 2020 they have a Hawaiian cruise that works for multiple dates since my daughter will be graduating from high school and heading to college.

 

[Geomom]

Lol, well I already solved the 'hole' in the Magic's schedule. I went to log into the DVC website and discovered they're doing 2 DVC cruises in 2019--yes the Wonder reposition (5/15-5/20/19)from San Diego to Vancouver IS a DVC cruise, and they're doing a Bermuda/Boston cruise from NYC from 10/5-10/11/19.

This is the question I was going to ask. Missing 2 weeks seems like it would be a round trip Hawaii. Why wouldn’t they post it? Could also be a dry dock. They can do a round trip from Hawaii from the United States. So my guess will be a dry dock once I thought about it for a few minutes. I’m on the last Alaska cruise. I made it the last one thinking there will be a repo cruise after the last Alaska cruise. To make it a decent length vacation. Now I’m thinking about flying to la after the Alaska cruise and go to Disneyland. Haven’t been to Disneyland since 2011. Before my hometown man Mike Trout been playing for the angels. Stadium and Disneyland are close.

Is there a place to dry dock near or in Vancouver? The last Alaska ends there and the repo starts there. so the ship is either staying there or not going too far.

 

[barney4liz]

Looking at the Sept. '19 WBTA -- is there a list somewhere of what the prices for that have been like historically when bookings opened? I am Silver so can't book until May 23.

 

[lorimay]

I was just on WDWinfo.com that Golden Oak residents can book same day as Platinum, is this new or did I just miss it before?

Cool perk for those residents, of course what does a house cost in there, 5 million?

It started the last time when dvc bookings opened up. Think you can get one for three million.

I am looking at that! I am silver, so can't book until May 23. Do you happen to know what the opening prices are usually like?

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

Is the WBTA also shorter one night than this year?

I’m pretty sure the wonder has dry dock in Vancouver before. Someone correct me if I’m wrong. Up date yes the wonder dry dock in Vancouver for 14 nights in 2011 after the last Alaska sailing of that year.
