As you can see, most sailings will get an extra dose of magic with the addition of Halloween on the High Seas or Very MerryTime festivities.
Any word if this will be on the repositioning cruise of NY to Puerto Rico? Thanks!
That date was not listed.
This sounds very cool, unfortunately we’re already booked on the Fantasy for August, but of course, if it goes well, I imagine it’ll be around. Thanks for the post
The New York sailings needed a boost like this. Every sailing this year went to discounted rate.
That’s cool
I’m on the Oct 21 2017 to Canada! Can’t wait!
I’m torn between stoked and nervous. As soon as they announced this I started panicking that the cruise I’ve wanted for a while will get magically sold out. But it does seem these cruises are a hard sell so to speak. Maybe it’s the price or the location?
Time of year is tough when vacation schedules are often restricted to school calendars. The exception would be sailings from Port Canaveral where they have the luxury of piggy backing off of WDW vacationers. This is just my opinion, not based on anything I’ve been told or overheard.
Sounds as valid as anything I could think up. Most of the NYC cruises this year went on sale.
