aussiecruiser275 Posted June 30, 2011 #1 Share Posted June 30, 2011 After much speculation, the program from FEB to APR 2012 has been announced in repsect to its drydock. It has been cauisng much anticipation in Australia due to its Northern winter base in Sydney. ROYAL Caribbean Cruises has cancelled four Australian cruises on Rhapsody of the Seas early next year to allow the vessel toundergo a four-week extended drydock in Singapore.The cancelled voyages were scheduled to depart 01, 10 and21 Mar and 02 Apr 2012. Rhapsody will instead operate a 14 night Sydney-Singapore cruise departing 16 Feb, and a two-week return voyage departing 25 Mar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cairns.boy Posted June 30, 2011 #2 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Just a slight correction to your post. The Singapore departure is 29 March. I have just booked it as it precedes my 3 B2B already booked. Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texmike Posted June 30, 2011 #3 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Sailed on the Rhapsody in 2004 and 2007 when it went out of Galveston. One of the smaller RCI ships-Missed the specialty restaurants. Hope they add one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sassyredhat Posted June 30, 2011 #4 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Darn~~~~I was hoping they would send her our way since you all have Radiance and Voyager. :( :D Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spencercoop Posted June 30, 2011 #5 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Darn~~~~I was hoping they would send her our way since you all have Radiance and Voyager. :( :D Pat There is still a chance. This is for early 2012. The Voyager will not be getting to Sydney until late 2012 and staying through early 2013. So hopefully in the next few weeks we will know for sure. Does anyone know what the new Australia release date is. I thought it was suppose to be released this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puffinater Posted June 30, 2011 #6 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Looks like after the 2012 Alaska season the Rhapsody is heading to Hawaii nothing after that trip but I figure it doubtful it will be heading back to the west coast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonbgd Posted June 30, 2011 #7 Share Posted June 30, 2011 I figure it doubtful it will be heading back to the west coast. But one can always hope:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tahqa Posted June 30, 2011 #8 Share Posted June 30, 2011 I am a little disappointed by this as I had a reservation on the 2 April 2012 sailing. :( Oh well, they gave me $200 OBC for cancelling my sailing and I'm now doing a Norway Fjords cruise. Yay! :D I guess Australia will have to wait a few more years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seaofwonder Posted June 30, 2011 #9 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Does anyone know what they are doing to the Rhapsody? We're cruising on her during the Alaska season and are hopeful for specialty restaurants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweettxcruiser04 Posted August 5, 2011 #10 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I would love to know what the are doing to my all time favorite ship. Something I read said more balcony staterooms and if you look at the digital picture when you are looking at Alaskan cruises next year, that ship has 4 decks of balconies and a hump.... I also read they are adding specialty restaurants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PantherFan Posted August 5, 2011 #11 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I would think the changes would be similar to what they are doing to the Splendour. see link to RCL http://www.royalcaribbean.com/contentSiteletSub.do?pagename=sub_royal_advantage_SP&pagenameMain=royal_advantage_main&discriminators=4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
