DCL October 2019

I know that the summer 2019 cruise dates have only just been released, but do you know when the Autumn 2019 dates are released? I'd like to start some tentative planning for our October 2019 trip. Thanks!

Not until around May/June time I'm afraid I'd guess.

Thanks Bats! That would work for me - we are cruising the med early June so would be good to talk to the booking desk whilst there and find out what our options are (and then buying a place holder voucher to get the 10% discont, which would then be transferred to a US travel agent on our return).

You're better off adding your TA to the booking/placeholder straight away. Transferring afterwards may mean a lower on board credit from the TA as they themselves get less commission on a transfer.

Ah, thanks Joa, didn�t realise you could do that. So presume I need to have reached out to a TA before hand and tee�ed this up with them? Anyone you can recommend for that?

Appreciate al the help you give to me and others on DCL cruise queries,

We use Travel on a Dream (ToaD) like many other Dibbers. Ask for Deb (you can choose her on the website if you want to speak to her beforehand).
Remember, you'll need to pay in $$$ so if you're worried about the exchange rate, book direct.
We're not, so we always book with ToaD.
