Wish I knew. I'm awaiting release to confirm a cruise in Asia.

To balance everything out, here is my idea of what RCI should do in Summer 2016

Oasis 3: Asia (Hong Kong/Singapore) and Australia (Sydney)

Allure: Med (Barcelona) and Caribbean (Port Canaveral)

Oasis: Year round Caribbean (Fort Lauderdale)

Quantum 3: Europe (Southampton) and Caribbean (Fort Lauderdale)

Anthem: Caribbean and Northeast (Bayonne)

Quantum: Asia (Shanghai)

Independence: Asia (Shanghai/Singapore)

Liberty: Year round Caribbean (Galveston)

Freedom: Caribbean (San Juan)

Jewel: Alaska (Seattle), Caribbean (San Juan) and a wee bit of Los Angeles

Serenade: Baltic (Harwich), Caribbean (Port Canaveral)

Brilliance: Caribbean and Northeast (Baltimore)

Radiance: Alaska (Vancouver) and Australia (Sydney)

Mariner: Asia (Singapore) and Australia (Sydney)

Navigator: Caribbean (Fort Lauderdale)

Adventure: Asia (Tianjin) and Australia (Sydney)

Explorer: Europe (Southampton) and South America (Sao Paulo)

Voyager: Med (Barcelona) and Short Caribbean (Fort Lauderdale)

Vision: Caribbean (Tampa)

Enchantment: Bahamas (Port Canaveral)

Rhapsody: Baltic (Copenhagen/Stockholm) and South America (Sao Paulo)

Grandeur: Bahamas (Miami)

Splendour: Med (Venice) and Middle East (Dubai)

Legend: Short Asia (Singapore) and Australia (Brisbane)

What do you think?

I dunno if they could give Australia Mariner and Adventure after we've had fully refurbed Voyager and Explorer.

Adventure should get another dry dock, That last one was practically nothing, If EX and VY get a full refurb, why shouldn't AD?

As for Mariner, She will be due for her 5 year dry dock in early 2017 where she can get some more enhancements, Just a thought

But do bear in mind that I want you to have Oasis 3 as surely they can find a new port clear of the bridges and I do want you to have 5 ships. :)

Are the itineraries for Singapore still not completely out yet? It's now July... What about Quantum's itineraries? Any news?

What do you think?

I doubt that RCI would make such a big investment in the new cruise terminal 1 at Port Canaveral only to have one ship, Enchantment as you not above, to be there year round.

Anxiously awaiting word on ship and departure port for the April/May 2016 transatlantic Northern Europe, even though many say the itinerary won't be announced until Spring 2015.

Anyone know where the Legend is in July early August 2015?

So what do we actually know as of yet 2016 wise, and what is just speculation?

I believe Explorer goes to Asia after Southampton.

Damn, I feel like us Brits are getting all the ships taken away :(

I know exactly how you feel.

Sorry I missed this news but Radiance may be coming back to the West Coast again? Like the Mariner a few years back?

To my knowlege, Jewel is doing some West Coast ports only on as a consequence of going to Alaska.

It would be a big, big upset if Southampton is left empty handed in 2016.

We've had the Independence for years, and in the past couple of years it's been backed up by a Voyager class ship. Next year the Independence makes way for the Anthem, still backed up by a Voyager ship (Explorer instead of Adventure) but in 2016, at the moment, it's looking grim.

The 3 Oasis class ships are slated for FLL, Barcelona, and Asia. Anthem will be in New Jersey, Quantum will be in Asia and all 3 of the freedom class vessels look set to be doing the Caribbean. Of the Voyager class ships you're looking at two of them in Asia, and at least two in the states, one probably will do Eastern Med and middle East type itineraries.

Quantum 3 is the kicker. If it's even ready for summer 2016 I'm not sure Royal would launch a ship out of the UK.

So, at very best we're looking at the new Quantum ship and a Radiance class ship sailing from the UK. Looks like the Asian breakthrough is really screwing us British cruisers over. Ah well, having the Allure in Europe should be worth a flight to Barcelona for.

It's Liberty, not Indy, from Galveston beginning Nov. 2015.

I wish RC would resume its British Isles cruise, whether out of Southampton, Harwich, or Copenhagen. I know Celebrity has Brirish Isles cruises, but they are longer than what RC used to offer. If you cruise on Celebrity, you don't get Crown and Anchor points.

It would be a big, big upset if Southampton is left empty handed in 2016.

Is this a fact or just speculation for now? Also I dont recall seeing confirmation from RCI that Anthem will be in NJ all year round yet. One would think that Southhampton would still get a Quantum Class ship even on a half year basis.

To my knowlege, Jewel is doing some West Coast ports only on as a consequence of going to Alaska.

I am seeing a paltry 2 cruises out of LA on Jewel. Sigh. Both are almost completely sold out. Hello Royal???? Are you looking!

This is just a speculation guessing thread.

Royal have not announced yet what extra ships are going to Asia in 2016.

Jewel is basically doing a repo cruise from Alaska to San Juan with a few 7 nighters on the way.

That's the reason they are almost sold out. Less cruises means more bookings and higher prices.
