    Thank you so much for your coverage! I have stopped checking any other sites in the morning, and have bookmarked your blog to know what’s truly going on. A small request, if someone can update us silver members about pricing info when they make reservations tomorrow, that would be super appreciated. I didn’t realize I cannot get a price quote until Thursday. Thanks again for all you do on this blog!

    Do we have any feeling or indication if they will continue the Southern Caribbean cruises past these only four they have currently mentioned? I’m already booked on a Western Caribbean cruise next year and am dying to try Southern in 2015, if possible!

      I would say the future Southern itineraries are heavily dependent on the success of the 2014 sailings. Many have been asking for Southern itineraries (including myself) and now we have the opportunity.

    Quick question, when booking for the 7-Night Itinerary, which side of the boat is best for views? We usually book cabin 6634, but wondering if that will be the optimal side for Europe. Any feedback would be really appreciated.

      Hey Casey! – To be honest it is extremely hard to tell. The Captain and the pilot determines each time the ship is sailing into port which side to berth/anchor. Its usually a 50/50 chance the ship will berth Port or Starboard. If you have a look at the ports of call closely, you may be able to see how large the entry/exit channel is. Some ships will swing around so they are ready to sail straight out of the port and others don’t – its always fun and games!

    Casey – When we went on the 7-night Itinerary in August 2012, we found the port side to face most coastlines. It’s the same itinerary, minus Palma, I am sure you will have fun. It is not a guarantee, but I hope that helps!

      It is anyone’s guess as to when. I could potentially see the end of 2014 for the Wonder and part of 2015 for the fleet announced in the later this fall. My only reason for the late fall, other than that is when it was done last year, is the DCL will have a better idea on how much time is really needed to overhaul the Wonder based on how things go with the Magic. Just my 2 cents.
