I need to message Bren and ask her if it's ok to visit next year, then I'll be booking Southwest from FLL (Fort Lauderdale) to BNA (Nashville), then BNA to JFK (or other NY) then VA home in PE with our miles .. woohoo.

Hi everyone,
Is it just me or is the WBTA sold out for 2015?

I looked on Sunday and it seems to be sold out.

[MRSDOLEWHIP]

That seems a little strange for a transatlantic to me. There's also a time lapse of two weeks between the last European 7 night and the WBTA. I'm hoping it hasn't been moved/cancelled and we don't know about it yet.

[BarryandCaron]

I hope not! I want to book our flights home at the weekend using our Virgin miles. I agree with you though, it is strange.

[MRSDOLEWHIP]

LOL the exact same for us! Saved all our Virgin miles for a one way return. I have heard though if DCL cancels or moves a cruise and you have flights booked they will refund any costs you have incurred because of them. I've been tweeting with the guy from DCL blog and he says whilst it is strange and the WBTA does in fact follow a two week dry dock in Cadiz, it does just look sold out.

Disney couldn't refund our Virgin miles though

[NatsyNoo]

I hope not too! I booked my flights home with points! I don't think they'll move the date though. Hopefully they'll just give Her some love before sending her back home!

[MRSDOLEWHIP]

Virgin would though. I think flights paid for with miles are only subject to a small fee (£25 ish) and are refundable for miles and taxes until 24 it 48 hours before the flight. It's been a long time since we've flown Virgin. We fly BA but I have miles to burn now with Virgin.

Hopefully I'm just being paranoid and it's genuinely sold out.

[MRSDOLEWHIP]

Update: now showing category 4B as the only category available which would lead us to believe it's just going to be a VERY busy cruise. I'm still going to go ahead and book out flights when available and trust it's just super popular. I've personally never come across this especially so far out but apparently it happens.
