Luminosa Australia sailings cancelled?

[sm9690]

I was looking a day or 2 ago at the November/December 2022 Luminosa sailings in Australia but now they've all vanished off the Carnival site, have they all been cancelled?

I doubt it. I received another email today for free cruises on Luminosa.

Just got another free offer for the Luminosa this afternoon, so I also doubt it.

I received a casino offer email earlier today for Luminosa sailings in Australia. But when I clicked on it, it said "Oh Snap" no itineraries match your request. Now in looking at both Carnival.com and Carnival.au, only Splendor and Spirit are listed. No Carnival Luminosa in the ship list. Odd...

yeah they have deleted all Luminosa cruises. I have a hold on a room that I have until today to pay for. I just looked on the Carnival site and there is a message on there for Brisbane cruisers. Have cancelled October sailings and will provide updates on Brisbane sailings after November. I'm assuming that they haven't received sufficient bookings so they are cutting back? i just tried to call and after a while on hold I gave up.

It could be that they don’t have enough staff coming on in Dubai.  EM

In the link jenna 9 posted, it doesn't make any sense about Slendor being canceled for Sept 26th onward.  The Splendor left Seattle on Sept 6th, and due back, in Sydney on the 30th. I can be dense at times-am I missing something?

@arxcards Do you know anything about this? I also tried to look at booking another Luminosa cruise and it says Oh SNAP. I've paid the 6th Nov one off in full.

The ship has left after her renovations, and is halfway to the Suez Canal and doing 20kn. No issues with the drydock or ship then.

 

The above advisories are old news regarding deleted schedules for Splendor & Spirit. Luminosa never had any October sailings, and was always kicking off in Brisbane from 6th November.

 

I can't see them either, and the ship has totally disappeared from the AU and US Carnival sites. Still, a website glitch doesn't have to equal cancellations. Aw Snap, look again later.

@arxcards UPDATE - It's a known issue and Carnival are working on it. PHEWWWWW. A TA over at facey just advised. @sm9690

Our new ship has vanished, but we know about it. 😂

Look further down the page where it refers to Brisbane sailings

sorry, typed too quickly. Looks like they've deleted a few cruises unless things are still wrong. The cruise I was tentatively booked for on 29 Dec doesn't seem to be there anymore, as well as the Pacific Islands cruise the week after.

Yes I notice the one I want is missing. Maybe I will just check tomorrow.

Looks like they’re just in the process of switching some guests onto Luminosa and new bookings are on hold until the dust settles.

29th December cruise is back. 8th and 22nd January are still missing.

 

No, I don't think they have deleted anything, but are still working their way through whatever wiped out all of Luminosa's schedule from their system.

That all happened weeks ago
