well the super bowl this year will be in Miami and I'm pretty sure that's why the cruise was so early this year. Tampa is across the state but yeah still close-ish, so maybe the 2021 cruise will be around the same time as 2020.metalforever wrote: ↑Mon Jan 13, 2020 10:02 am I am curious since the 2021 Superbowl will be in Tampa Florida on 2/7/21, if that weekend would not be considered due to significant congestion in the state of Florida , even though I realize the distance is quite far about 265 miles from Tampa to Fort Lauderdale , it still might impact certain aspects of the cruise .

Think of the destination announcement like band announcements, when Andy has multiple things he drags them out. He said we'll be going to Jamaica, he didn't say we were only going to Jamaica . So, in my mind, multiple destinations means multiple announcements. That's just wishful thinking. I don't know shit, nobody knows shit.
Having pre-existing cruises converted to charters is pretty normal (Several MORCs have had that happen also and people that booked the regular cruise got a bump notice that it was no longer available). And yes, I also noticed that there are 3 different sailing dates for that specific cruise on Indy (1/2, 2/13, 2/27).JamieS wrote: ↑Mon Jan 13, 2020 12:43 pm My speculation from the megathread is that Independence doesn't have bookable cruises Jan 14 - Feb 4 (according to this), so the cruise would fall in that date range. Someone pointed out that some previous 70k cruises have been inadvertently listed for public booking, so I'll toss out a more fun speculation: Feb 13 5-night cruise to Labadee, Haiti and Falmouth, Jamaica.
Also, we don't know what cruise line.
Yep. Velly innnnteresting.I'm leaning towards superbowl weekend, back on the Independence. But clearly SOMETHING is up else it would have been a no-brainer to announce that on the final night.
This actually JUST happened with the Independence, within the last few days, according to posts on CruiseCritic. Existing reservations were cancelled with an option to rebook similar cruises, with a cruise credit. Sucks to have already booked nonrefundable travel, though.toby wrote: ↑Wed Jan 15, 2020 9:25 amHaving pre-existing cruises converted to charters is pretty normal (Several MORCs have had that happen also and people that booked the regular cruise got a bump notice that it was no longer available).

Yep. I almost never book anything nonrefundable for that reason.Pellaz wrote: ↑Wed Jan 15, 2020 3:21 pmThis actually JUST happened with the Independence, within the last few days, according to posts on CruiseCritic.
