We booked in mid June 2002(the day bookings opened) for late October 2003 transatlantic. We were ready to book as soon as they opened - our TA was given our instructions as to cabin on the different Celebrity ships and the itinerary we wanted and if bookings were opened, she had our instructions to book immediately. We gave her the instructions right after our 2001 transatlantic.

obosix.....are you going to give us a trip report of your QM2 trip? I would LOVE to hear about it!!!!

[HighRoller]

Was this past June for sailings in Dec 05 on the Diamond and Tahitian Princess....crazy I know but wanted specific cabins!...snooze you loose!

We booked three weeks ago for August, 2005. Twelve months, one day, about twenty-three hours of planning and anticipation - but who's counting???

We booked last month for January 06 on Jewel of the Seas. We love looking forward to trips (land or sea) so tend to book early. Also, we often use frequent flyer points for air travel and have learned the importance of booking well in advance.
169 days to Brilliance of the Seas

Just booked 7 Balcony Cabins for me, DH, and our friends for September 24th, 2005 on the Caribbean Princess! Got a great group rate with $100 shipboard credit and $120 Coupon Book per cabin! We can't wait!!!:D

[Tooth Gal]

We just booked this last week for Dec 05 on Legend of the Seas. I am looking forward to it - will help get me through the cold Canadian winter!!! Also makes it easier on the pocket book - lots of time to plan!!

Cruising on the Grandeur of the Seas, July 8, 2005. Too long to wait!!!

[aztex]

We booked two weeks ago for the March 5, 2006 sailing of [u]Infinity[/u] from Buenos Aires to Valparaiso. While new to cruising, we would normally book at least one year ahead for planning, combining the trip with a timeshare stay at one end or the other and for the pure fun of educating ourselves about new places and the people who live there.

[Grayce]

On July 19, 2004 I booked a cruise for August 21, 2005 so I could get the specific cabin I wanted.:D

[chipster]

We are waiting for Jan 06 full transits through Panama Canal on Royal Carib - when are we going to get those schedules???

[kajsb]

Last month I booked a January 2006 cruiser on the Spirit. I wanted a specific aft wraparound cabin. I needed a time to save my money but I needed a planned cruise to keep me going. :o

[imosoreal]

10 months and I thought that was rough until I looked at some of these other posts.

[OnceAMarineAlwaysAMarine]

We booked on Serenade of the Seas for October, 2005 15 months in advance so that we could book six aft balcony cabins for our group of 12 people.
