adamdiane Posted June 23, 2018 #1 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Hi, I am interested in the above cruise which goes from Southampton, UK and visits Morocco, the Canaries, Madeira, Lisbon and Spain. It looks like it is sold out as it is not appearing on the RCCL website. Is there anywhere where I can check if it is actually sold out or if it has been chartered, and if so, by who? Thanks Sent from my SM-T710 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ourusualbeach Posted June 23, 2018 #2 Share Posted June 23, 2018 It does appear that it is a charter as categories are listed as closed and not waitlisted on the TA booking site. Try googling different date formats and the ship name. You may or may not find anything. Royal does not release information on charters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamdiane Posted September 6, 2018 Author #3 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Well I have just received confirmation from RCCL that this cruise has been chartered. Fortunately it is still over a year away so we should still be able to find another cruise. Sent from my WAS-LX1A using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my WAS-LX1A using Forums mobile app Hello, we are booked on 18th October 2019 Explorer cruise and this has been closed for a while too. It looks like this cruise will be cancelled too because of the charter but I haven't had anything official yet. Did they offer you an alternatives/compensation/credit? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Hi, are you sure of your dates? According to both RCI USA website and RCI UK website the cruise leaves on the 19th October 2019 and both sites have space on the cruise.

Bloodgem Posted September 13, 2018 #9 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Hello, we are booked on 18th October 2019 Explorer cruise and this has been closed for a while too. It looks like this cruise will be cancelled too because of the charter but I haven't had anything official yet. Did they offer you an alternatives/compensation/credit? Thank you Cruise for 18th October and 20th October have both been cancelled by RC. RC are now offering a 7 night cruise departing on 18th October instead of a 2 night cruise (18th) and a 5 night cruise (20th). We were on the 5 night cruise (20th) and were notified on 8th September about the cancellation of our cruise. The new cruise went on sail yesterday (12th September). Hopeful you have heard about your cruise? We have booked the new 7 night cruise and we were lucky we managed to get the same cabins as the cancelled cruise. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamdiane Posted September 29, 2018 Author #10 Share Posted September 29, 2018 After much searching, RCCL released more cabins on the Independence cruise on 8th October so have transferred our booking to that cruise. It took some time to re-arrange and are just waiting for our cruise credit for the offered compensation.
