Wellseasoned Posted April 7, 2016 #3 Share Posted April 7, 2016 The 2018 WC itinerary is out...lots of complaining! Amazing. Duct tape, can you give us the basics? Start and finish ports, general route and such? I suppose the itinerary won't be on the website for a while yet. Enjoying your posts, hope we sail together again soon.

silver_traveller Posted April 9, 2016 #4 Share Posted April 9, 2016 the impossible has happened Silvesea has listened to the customer and totally revised the WC for 2018. Gone is the silly cruise that went against time (eastward) and failed to go to the some of the worlds great capitals (sydney,hk,etc) and put in place a thoughtful wc with lots of overnights and longer stays.u will try to save some pennies for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current cruise even stayed overnight in Sydney and, we believe, two nights in Hong Kong. Ah well, perhaps you are teasing and we fell for it.

Rare TLCOhio Posted April 9, 2016 #6 Share Posted April 9, 2016 When can we expect to see 2018 Itineraries? Thanks. Wellseasoned: Duct tape' date=' can you give us the basics? Start and finish ports, general route and such? I suppose the[b'] itinerary won't be on the website for a while[/b] yet. Did check the SS website both last night and this morning. As predicted and expected, there was nothing up and posted for the 2018 World Cruise at this info location. We are looking and planning to do some early 2018 sailing for Hong Kong, Vietnam, Singapore, etc., in southeast Asia. I have been told, if past timing is an indicator, that those early 2018 sailings will not be posted around September 2016. Have to wait??!! Others cruise lines, such as Crystal, have their early 2018 World Cruise up and available for booking, both the total trip, plus as individual segments. Any added details from duct tape and/or others for what specific areas of the world will be included on the SS WC? Ports to be visited?? THANKS! Enjoy! Terry in Ohio Enjoyed a 14-day, Jan. 20-Feb. 3, 2014, Sydney to Auckland adventure, getting a big sampling for the wonders of "down under” before and after this cruise.

Terry Crystal actually has all 2018 itineraries published and the 2018 WC was actually announced last Spring.

Maybe Silversea could learn something from Crystal?? Noticed that Crystal will have a "first" for them and most cruise lines in doing a Feb 14, 2019, stop at amazing Kangaroo Island, Australia from 8 am to 6 pm. We super loved our time on Kangaroo Island in early 2014. This 2019 WC will also do Cape Town and go up the western Africa on the way to finishing in Monte Carlo. THANKS! Enjoy!

Could you also tell us about the new revised version? Those of us not on the current WC are not deemed worthy to know the 2018 itinerary just yet, so we must rely upon your kindness.

Appreciate from DCCruiser57 these details on the routing and stops for Silversea in doing their 2018 World Cruise. I am especially interested in learning more details, costs, options for the segment that will sail from Manila or Hong Kong to Singapore. As any others get added information, I look forward to learning more. Keep it coming!! THANKS! Enjoy!

Thanks, DCCruiser. This itinerary looks fairly similar to the current WC. I was hoping that they would do the southern route around South Africa and across the Atlantic again, making it more of a full World Cruise. The Red Sea and eastern Med are getting to be a little too repetitive for us. Oh, well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Current info is for current world cruisers only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare frantic36 Posted April 11, 2016 #17 Share Posted April 11, 2016 In the interests of accuracy, Sydney and Hong Kong are not capital cities.:) Sydney is a capital city.......it is the capital city of New South Wales. :) http://www.australia.gov.au/about-government/states-territories-and-local-government/capital-cities Canberra is the capital city of Australia but I don't think countries as opposed to States were specified.

Rare Silver Spectre Posted April 24, 2016 #18 Share Posted April 24, 2016 The original 2018 WC that was so disliked: Start Ft Lauderdale, Caribbean, Panama Canal, Manta, Salavary, Peru, Chile, Punta Arenas, Stanley, Puerto Madryn, Punta del Este, BA, Montevideo, Rio, across the Atlantic via Jamestown St Helena (8 days), Walvis Bay, Cape Town, East London, Richards Bay, Maputo, Madagascar, Zanzibar, Mombassa, Seychelles, Maldives, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Port Klang, Singapore, Penang, Phuket, Yangon, Chennai, Cochin, Mumbai, UAE, Oman, Safaga, Aqaba, Suez, Sicily and end in Civitavecchia for Rome. Biggest complaint I believe was the two long sections of time loss going east, plus the doubling back and the final 6 weeks being very similar to this year's itinerary.
