2021 cruise watch thread~!

Seems that the prices for either are about the same now unless you can go early or late in the season. Crazy!

Which one was usually more expensive?

The Med has usually been much pricier than Alaska.

It used to be that Europe was much more expensive. Our Alaska cruise was either $4200 or $4800 for our family of four the first year Disney went. Now they are around 6 to 7k for our family of four. The ones that went to Icy Point were even more. I think around 9k. Europe is around the same as Alask now, unless you are talking about the longer Greece cruises that are CRAZY. So happy we jumped on that one early, too.

Thinking about the EBTA.

Sorry to sound dumb, but does anyone know the Dates for the Summer 2021 Itineraries?

no, that’s what we’re all waiting for to be released. June-September 2021. We are hoping soon, maybe this week

UPDATE FROM WDWINFO.COM/DIS:
We’ve heard that this release has been postponed, but it should still be happening at some point this week. Be sure to keep a close eye out on the Disney Updates section of our homepage for up-to-the-minute news on the Summer 2021 itineraries!

Thank you Jackie!
fingers crossed!

I'm not sure the cost of the Med is worth it compared to other lines. We did a B2B EBTA/Med and picked DCL for convenience. We were off the ship each day as soon as it docked and back just before dinner. If we did it again I would go with another cruise line to save considerable money.

I got tired of waiting for the release - so I went ahead and booked a June 2021 - 9 night cruise to Norway on Holland America today. Good luck to all who are waiting. - hope it's a short wait!!

I also was not wanting to wait for the Norwegian fjords itineraries from DCL so we booked with Princess a few months ago. We can only go late July early August and thought it was doubtful that DCL would be sailing to Norway at that time. So will be interesting to see what they come out with. It is possible that we would switch if it fit into our time frame. Especially if there was a chance that Jo would be on the Magic as Adult Entertainment director.

LOVE Jo!!! She is our favourite by far! However, she is now on the Fantasy and given how long she stayed on the Wonder, I wouldn't expect her to move to the Magic anytime soon. #tonyfromspain is still on the Magic (he just came back apparently) and he's good...but he's NO Jo Slo
We are waiting for Northern Europe (which we had booked for this August but had to cancel)....if the dates (or the price) don't work, I think we will be going with NCL.....

Oh awesome! We visited Norway as a land trip a couple years ago and it was epic - truly out of this world gorgeous. Hope you have the best time!

We luv Jo too! I thought Matt was the club host on the Fantasy now. Just read someone's trip report from Jan. that he was still there.
We were on the Fantasy over Christmas and thought we would have Jo, what a disappointment at Sail Away to see Matt. Sorry we just did not care for him. It would be much more tempting to book a cruise knowing who the club host would be. I realize even if dcl planned that far, there are still many factors that could change the CH. Curious to find out which CH will initially be on the Wish

Maybe Jo was still on vacation at that time? Hmmmm......interesting.....

Don't think we've ever had Matt. To be honest, they don't ALL stand out for us lol Those that do have been Chris (had him on the Fantasy in 2018, he was pretty awesome), Tony from Spain and Jo. Couldn't tell you any of the others we've had

Oh no... I just can't wait one more second!! Think about it though, what new surprises do they have in store for us this year?! What possible new locations?? Are they stopping in Morroco on the EBTA? Maybe Gibraltar? See, this is how one gets when there's no cruising again until 2021.

They did stop in Gibraltar in 2013! Would love to stop in Morocco, but they have not as far as I know.

Im hoping a round trip from LA to Hawaii but a girl can dream I guess

I thought I read somewhere probably here that the Magic is showing up on Gibraltar's cruise schedule.

 

[Toulou]

How can I find the cruise schedules?
