synin Posted February 14, 2017 #726 Share Posted February 14, 2017 When will RCCL let us know when we can book the Oasis 4. for the TA. I don't seem to get those messages via e-mail. Thanks for your help. I really want to book at the beginning. Any suggestions as to location of best cabin for the TA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted February 14, 2017 #727 Share Posted February 14, 2017 When will RCCL let us know when we can book the Oasis 4. for the TA. I don't seem to get those messages via e-mail. ... These are the two weeks that RC has planned for European bookings: Week of March 6, 2017 - Europe (Phase I), Year-Round Caribbean, & Bahamas Week of March 20, 2017 - Europe (Phase II) Best thing to do is keep watching here.

internetwhiz Posted February 14, 2017 #730 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Are the TA's Part of Europe (Phase I or Phase II)? Freedom TA last year for this fall was the week of March 6, 2016, first week of last year's releases. Harmony TA (new build) I purchased the first day it was available, March 17, 2015. As best I remember it was the only thing released that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not heard anything at all about the Symphony (or Oasis 4) other than the name. Am I missing something? Do we have any idea of when she will be doing her first cruises and TA?:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travelgoddess1 Posted February 14, 2017 #732 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Wish we could! We managed the 24 night TP cruise previously but we are both still working full time and it's very difficult to have so much time off. I've recently changed jobs and I can't quite get away for that long again (it ended up being a whole month, it was glorious!). The 16-18 nighters that they're offering, combined with a week in Hawaii, seems like a good middle ground. But it sounds like a lovely idea :) Put it on your list for future cruises. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we have any idea of when she will be doing her first cruises and TA?:confused: Michael Bayley said during President's Cruise last September that she will debut in Europe (like Harmony did) and then head to the US. My guess is Miami since the new terminal is set to be complete in the Fall of 2018 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunny AZ Girl Posted February 15, 2017 #738 Share Posted February 15, 2017 That is my plan. I have a placeholder ready to transfer to the TA sailing :) That is our plan, too! Hopefully the timing will work out as I can only take one week of PTO after November 1st. It promises to be another fun cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slg1979 Posted February 22, 2017 #742 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Also awaiting the release- really wanting to do a westbound TA- we are unable to travel after mid October through late April.

Ourusualbeach Posted February 22, 2017 #745 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Have to see what they offer on new bookings this time. Sent from my E5823 using Forums mobile app Just going by past years the "sales" we're their usual sales although they excluded new ships and China itineraries. Symphony will probably be excluded from sales if they follow past history. Hint. Watch every sale for the next 6 months or do and what the prices for Symphony are. With Harmony they did not artificially raise Harmony's prices on the first sale that she was not excluded from leading to great deals for about a one week period until they started raising prices.

That is true as Harmony was included in the 30/30 sale back in June/july 2015 when we booked for this upcoming Spring Break cruise on 11 March. We paid $3900 including taxes for Oceanview Balcony which then soared to a high of over $6000 at one point...crazy stuff.

Geldhart Posted February 22, 2017 #747 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Dumb question. I'm assuming 2018 will be released for sailing into December. Will 2019 be the same or are only a few months being released. We are planning on a September 2019 Western Caribbean sailing, but are somewhat flexible.

We initially booked our December HOTS sailing on 4/7, and the fare was $1899/person (excluding taxes) for a JS. Then in June, the price dropped to $1330/person. I watched fares go up from there. I think I saw it hit $5000 at one point, but it could have been higher as I didn't check that often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
