Any guesses???

[lovedecruise]

Anybody care to have a guess at what this email might be about?

 

[GUT2407]

No idea.

 

Best guess a new sale.

[AtlantaCruiser72]

Maybe formal announcement of Apex's launch date and inaugural season itineraries, as well as the date they will start accepting bookings for her?

 

Or maybe just another price hike marketed as a "sale"

My guess would be Apex sailings & Booking dates.

[Jeremiah1212]

Given the use of the sky and clouds, I would bet on an Apex announcement too. 

[Luvcrusn]

Apex for sure!

Did only us Southern Hemisphere folk get this type of email or is it worldwide with a photo of your own country on it?  Hoping it might mean we are getting another ship down to our part of the world.  I may of course be dreaming.😀

[Host Jazzbeau]

Well you're a lot closer to Tuesday than we are on the East Coast of US, so you'll find out first!

Chapter 11?

At one point the 2020/21 deployment listing had the ship code for Eclipse listed along with that of the Solstice under Australia/Hawaii and it has since been removed. I wonder if Eclipse is actually joining Solstice "Down Under" for 2020/21 and Celebrity want to make a big splashy announcement ahead of the rest of the deployment.  Perhaps Eclipse would be homeported in either Melbourne of Brisbane rather than Sydney if this is what is happening?

Ohhh 2 ships would be amazing. She’s not showing in either Melbourne or Brisbane calendars but Solstice isn’t showing on Melbourne’s either. Fingers crossed. 

[MikeC1610]

I'll have a guess and say that it is either the next Edge Class ship is coming to Australia/New Zealand/Asia or we are getting another Solstice Class ship in 20/21. 

[crazyman3]

Got it!

 

All cruisers who live somewhere in Australia (and anywhere else shown on the photo) are to receive a free cruise brochure of their choice.

The very recent trimester financial report was so fine, that I'm worrying. For next year they have much more booking then this year, People booked more in advance, and Edge was very well booked.

 

So: we will must forget cheap prices (I do not think this will be the announcement), and probably they could and would announce cruises for additional years.

[Dimarie40]

Well I guess we'll know in two more sleeps!

 

It does seem as though it's something happening in Australia/NZ.  Love the Eclipse so that would be wonderful, plus some new itineraries wouldn't go astray either.

Looks like Australia is getting Eclipse 🙂

Just got the same message.

 

I wonder  if it’s in addition to Solstice or instead of.

 

Hope it’s a second ship with a more itineraries.

Me too - although we are booked on Solstice April 2020 from Auckland, so maybe they are 'adding' to the fleet down under?

[AtlantaCruiser72]

AHA!  I called it!!!!!!  I think it is in addition to the Solstice - nice to see Celebrity adding to their Aus/NZ lineup!

Please please please be two ships. I’m hoping for about 2 months downunder and two ships would give us some great options. 

[Mr&MrsCookie]

I can't see any additional cruises from the port schedules to indicate 2 ships though.  Would have preferred Reflection over Eclipse - don't think Eclipse has the Lawn Club Grill?

[Dimarie40]

Yeah.  Got the same email.  I'm thrilled we are getting the Eclipse.  We just sailed on her in September and she is our favourite ship. 

 

I'm praying for some new itineraries.

Solstice isn’t showing at all on Melbourne’s schedule so I think they’re far from complete.
