WHATS THE FURTHEST AHEAD YOU EVER BOOKED A CRUISE?

We're up to #28 (if we live). One coming up in Nov, then next April and Nov, then Feb of 21. we usually cruise NCL, but all this talk about CARNY VISTA, and then coincidentally that TV show, got us looking...So yesterday evening we booked a HAVANA EXTENDED BALCONY on her also After a lot of surfing research. Also for 2021...just mebbe we'll cancel one of the NCL's in favor if it.The CRUISENEXT coupons stay good.. No risk.

Point is, when we looked the ship over, and picked that cabin, we're glad we did. The thing is selling, two years in advance. We do it because we really want what we want cabin wise, and eventually reservation wise. Trying to "time it" is like trying to time the stock market...more misses than hits. So how far ahead have you booked cruises...assuming of course, the schedule is available?

14 months in advance is the earliest we have ever booked. We usually book 3 to 6 months out.

We booked (Carnival Miracle) Hawaii 2 years in advance to ensure the cabin we wanted.

Probably about 18 months.

Yeh, they do...and they come out at regularly irregular intervals, depending upon the cruise line. (If you follow)....If there was a way to subscribe, (at least to the lines you like to cruise) and get them immediately upon release, the thing would be an incredibly valuable tool. We think we have a couple of them timed out, but who really knows?

WOW, don't think that will be beat. I didn't know cruise ship schedules went that far out.

Furthest ahead booking for us would be 25 months, but we had a few cruises before that one so we never had to wait too long.

I don't remember how long it was when I first booked the one I have coming up in September of next year, but I booked a 40-day from Seattle to Auckland when it first came out - I still have over 400 days on that one! But I have a crusie coming up in 90 days, and another one coming up in January, so I guess I'll survive until then.

I just booked one for June 2020, and I am about to book one for July of 2021 too.
