I'd gladly book a Havana cabana for an Alaskan sailing on Panorama. I think THAT would be an awesome room for an Alaskan cruise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UPNYGuy Posted August 21 #28 Share Posted August 21 (edited) I booked an aft-wrap suite on Spirit for May 2025 when those AK sailings were first released last year. I wanted a particular cabin and didn't want to lose it. Sometimes we aren't too particular about our cabins, but I love the aft wrap cabins on the spirit class.

CarnivalShips480 Posted August 21 #29 Share Posted August 21 Panorama actually in Alaska next week as a part of it's transpacific. Perfect time for an announcement? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully this is a trial run for things to come. I would definitely book on the panorama if it did an Alaska cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyntil8ing Posted August 21 #35 Share Posted August 21 I’ve been waiting for this announcement since Holland America announced Eclipse cruises a few months ago. Unfortunately this itinerary is largely a rerun of one we did on Pride in 2022, so we will look to other lines with other itineraries. But for everyone else, it’s a great itinerary !

I see that HAL's sold really well, I think only the long 21 day looks like the only one open now. Unique sailings. Question, was the Pride Eclipse sailing also or just the itinerary was the same?

Rare craig01020 Posted August 22 #37 Share Posted August 22 The only rate for these cruises is the Early Saver fare which has a non-refundable deposit, and expires at midnight tonight. I'm planning to wait for the refundable deposit (PB4) fare. Are the Early Saver fares so low that they're worth the risk of losing a deposit?
