NEWS 5/17: Late 2019 itineraries released - link in post #1 (2020 watch thread will start soon)

Southern Caribbean on any ship over the summer that correlates with one of my vacation weeks!

 

[Debby7]

EBTA and need to know it's itinerary!

 

[disneycruisegirl]

I am waiting on the EBTA too! Fingers crossed that the dates work out!

 

[kuhltiffany]

Does anyone know if the Northern European or Fjord cruises were included in blackout dates? (So they couldn't get the placeholder discount?)

Southern Caribbean on any ship over the summer that correlates with one of my vacation weeks!

This is one thing I think they will address with the expanded fleet in a few years, more southern sailings in the summer time.

I think based off the ports they know it is stopping in, they think the Norway/ Iceland cruise will end in Copenhagen.

We are hoping for Hawaii in May... I know keep dreaming.
Alaska with an affordable price in June or July... yes I know how silly of me...
In all seriousness we are hoping to book Alaska, probably 2nd half of August.

We did the last August sailing in 2017 and it was PERFECT! Cheapest week that summer and the weather was glorious (for Alaska). our crew kept saying how they hadn't seen sun in most of the ports all summer and we had sun every day but one! It was an AMAZING trip. So amazing that I might even book another one for 2019,even though we considered it a "once in a lifetime" trip when wen went in 2017. Maybe we will be cruising together!

Wish list is likely unrealistic but ... Hawaii, Southern Caribbean or East Coast (New York / Canada even Bermuda) during summer break would be tempting. In the far-fetched category, Australia / New Zealand would be awesome (maybe slightly less far-fetched once the new ships arrive).

Alaska, great deal on a late May sailing!

We're waiting for a Norway/Iceland cruise. Maybe one in each direction so we have a choice? (plan to do Dover by train, but that isn't doable to/from Copenhagen)

Awesome! Depending on the prices we will likely book the last week in August to come back just before school starts If second last week doesn't differ in price too much, we will do that one.
Alaska won't be our only trip in 2019 so I don't want to pay peak peak prices. I know May is also cheaper but don't want it during school.
So glad to hear you loved it and yes book it again!

Those have not been blackout dates recently. We used our placeholder from 8/16 for our upcoming Northern European cruise.

Lately, the blackout dates seem to be mostly around holidays--Easter/Thanksgiving/Christmas, sometimes 4th of July, and any 2 day sailing.

I use a placeholder for my Norway/Iceland cruise last summer! So no blackout dates.

 

[HappilyEverAfter80]

So.... if they were going to announce it... what time normally?

 

[PHamrick]

Does anyone know if the Northern European or Fjord cruises were included in blackout dates? (So they couldn't get the placeholder discount?)

I'm on the Northern European cruise this summer and it was NOT in the blackout dates. I used two placeholder discounts for two rooms. Hope this stays true for you! I'm less than six months away...
