The published itinerary for the Island Princess on the 20th of November has her in Cyprus and that's not even showing anymore. I was hoping this was a backup plan but with the old itinerary now not possible, I think it's a new plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texasgirl29 Posted April 15, 2021 #28 Share Posted April 15, 2021 We are booked on the transatlantic on the Island, leaving Rome Nov. 28. While my itinerary from Rome still shows on my booking, if I try to search that voyage it says it's not available. Also says Oct. 5, Northern Lights from Southampton, which is the first sailing for the Island this year, says it's not available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it's time to give our TA a call and begin the process to implement Plan B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm seeing everything available with the Island Princess except for the Northern Lights cruise. Still, with our excellent port schedule sleuths, I have a strong hunch the Island is going to be doing something else. We'll probably see some announcements soon. Other CC members have had similar issues with Diamond Princess itineraries today. They show available to me as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Ken the cruiser Posted April 17, 2021 #34 Share Posted April 17, 2021 The Oct 5th Northern Lights cruise is open for booking again. Yay!! Cruise Details - 14-Day Search for the Northern Lights - Princess Cruises 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disneyochem Posted April 18, 2021 #35 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Our 14 day FLL to LA Panama Canal Cruise on January 5, 2022 shows as unavailable on the Island..... Bummer! This would be our third cancelled Panama Canal Cruise (and 10th overall!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bummer! This would be our third cancelled Panama Canal Cruise (and 10th overall!). The Island also starts its World Cruise on the 5th of January and all those cruises are showing as available although some classes of cabin are already sold out (I noticed Interior was gone on one segment). If you've already got a confirmed booking on the FLL to LA segment, I wouldn't worry that it's showing unavailable. That status tends to come and go as Princess IT makes software and database changes. Personally I'm more concerned about changes in the ship schedules on the port web-sites for the Island's itineraries in Oct/Nov/Dec as they conflict with Princess' published itineraries for the Island. This may portend a series of further changes that could affect your cruise. I would think Princess would do everything the could to make sure a World Cruise successfully sailed but, who really knows? Edit: I now see a bunch more WC segments showing unavailable. Yeah, I'd definitely keep an eye on this. Edited April 18, 2021 by beg3yrs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been checking it daily once I heard about the reportedly new schedule for the Island Princess in Israel. So, no, not ‘always’ available..... We had booked this cruise last October when our 2021 Panama Canal Cruise had been cancelled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have checked them BOTH daily and I have never seen them not available. Are you looking at the right date? There are about 4 dates available I was looking at the one for December 12th Kathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure there are a number of other dates that the ship sails the Panama Canal but as a college professor, I’m only interested in the cruise that fits my teaching schedule. Thank you for your suggestion and have a wonderful day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
