Silversea 2016

[rbslos18]

Any word on when the 2016 schedule will be out?

[Master Echo]

Apparently the usually splendidly crafted brochure for 2015, should be out in October or November. As for the 2016 itineraries - this is expected towards the end of the year.

 

Why so late? Several of their competitors have their plans finalised and are available to passengers to book now. Many of the less SS aficionados could be tempted away to other cruise lines, as so many now like to book their cruises well in advance to get the exact suites/decks they require.

 

We were hoping that whilst onboard the Whisper, they would at least have some idea of the itineraries for 2016, even a draft copy, but no such luck.:(

 

We await with bated breath!

Appreciate this heads-up. Just checked on-line and they do have the options up for Africa in early 2016 that is on our "wish list". World cruise is Ft. Lauderdale to Venice going through both Panama and Suez Canals.

 

THANKS! Enjoy! Terry in Ohio

All 2016 itinerarys are live on the web site today:)

[Emtbsam]

Very sad - they are not doing the LA to LA via Sydney trip in 2016.

[fudge]

Silversea mailed us with the 2016 cruises. :)

[Tothesunset]

Had a look through the itineraries and, so far, all we have found of interest is the TA on the Spirit from Barcelona to Bridgetown in Nov 2016.

[Master Echo]

I expect you all know that the 2016 voyages are now on line.

 

During contact this morning with the London office, we were told that none of these has yet been blacked out to fail to qualify for discount for bookings made on board. Anyone holding an open booking may care to bear this in mind.

 

 

Kindest regards

I looked at one expedition cruise from ushuaia to capetown as soon as i got the email, and the entire cruise is waitlisted...guess that means its chartered?

i was interested in doing the cruise in march 2016 rather than march 2015.Anyone have any insight on why its completely waitlisted?

I also looked at this cruise and was surprised to see it wait listed across the board. I thought it was an unusual itinerary to be chartered, but perhaps you are right?? I didn't contact my TA to query it, but I might.

Does anyone else have any thoughts?

Great to hear from our UK friend that the Silver Cloud was "superb". Looking forward to reading more of your details, special updates and insider tips. We are moving ahead with a Jan. 25-Feb. 20, 2015, Silver Cloud Amazon River-Caribbean combo back-to-back sailing over 26 days. Exciting to be back on the Silver Cloud.

 

THANKS! Enjoy! Terry in Ohio

Good Morning Brimary - Great news, we look forward to seeing you both on 27 June 2016 if not before. Lets hope The Pool will be in better shape on The Wind than you experienced on Cloud this Year ??

[duct tape]

Wish we were going with you! I don't think the bridge tender raises the bridge if Brimary is not aboard!

[Mayflower1]

Good morning Ducttape - we would love you to be with us - can you not reorganise your schedule ?

[duct tape]

Nice thought, thanx, but we have already reorganized! Have a great trip.
