Will this hit the next mile stone 9s today !!!!

well done everyone hopefully onwards and upwards from here

it certainly is looking quite strong again in US

Still up pre market USA looking good

Forest34 - For what its worth IMO this has a long way to go but I think the bumps in the road will slow it down, Sentiment is there that's for sure, bookings very strong across the company we can verify that from being cruisers, with the current economic times debt and other powers at be this could be anywhere but I cant see it dipping much again due to the fundamentals, prices have risen on most cruise lines and talking to a few knowledgeable people debt will be brought down quicker than first thought but with interest rates rising its really anyone's guess. I suppose its what your buy in price is and how much profit your happy with . My personnel opinion is by spring we should see the SP improve a lot as long as no re-occurrence of Covid, WW3 and the like.

Ken - Thank you for that Mrs has just came off the phone to P&O unfortunately the dates are not too good on arvia but that is the one we wanted, I have a large job starting and we do need to be here when it starts. We have just looked at Britannia on the 25/2/23 very good price so we may get that booked later today but thanks again.

Thanks bhants we were mortified by emirates customer serve worse we have ever had must be a sign of the times.

Aangus1 - We have never boked an inside, we have sailed Celebrity, Cunard, P&O etc and had suits and balconies, the cost savings can be huge we normally now go for a balcony as the perks of a suit in our view are not worth it. Club Balcony on Cunard also in our view not worth it. So never had an inside but why not we may try it one day.

Sorry off topic - We are due to go away 1/3/23 flying to Dubai hotel for 10 night staying in the palms flight with Emirates, paid for upgrade to premium economy just had an email to advise due to different plane no premium economy and no refunds for the additional privilege, awful service from a so called decent airline So we have cancelled and basically told them to go forth and multiply !! we are now looking for a cruise early march hey ho is all gone seriously mad !!

Interest rate rise UK possibility this afternoon so this could have a negative effect hopefully not

Pre market USA up but as been said you never no this afternoon.

bhants - Ken beat me to it !! but still all for a good cause.

As an investor here I am also confident the raise will come however we have heard this for a long while now and nothing has raised, "only in my opinion" people advising buy the dips for any new comers just be careful whether people are ramping or de-ramping do your own research a lot of people would have been very disappointed this morning so far.

A bit more uplifting news

Evening all

Just looking at the recent news and confidence within the market I do not understand at all that stalling of the SP over recent days , USA especially are doing quite well with economy and inflation , booking very strong across there brands , hopefully by spring we are looking better , good news is only from what I have read on the social media the world cruises are all doing well !!

Good luck to everyone

Last night we tried to booked a club balcony on queen Elizabeth 2 weeks September med cruise, when we called iglu they had no cabins available so we called Cunard and apparently no club balconies but we have managed to book a Brittania balcony but the lady advised this cruise is 85% booked already , we have booked Queen Anne also and apparently it is now sold out. Bookings are crazy even though prices have risen in some cases 30% , we are booked on Arcadia July and again we are told pretty much sold out so all looking very strong indeed !!

Yes pre market now down !! this is frustrating but still early days

bhants - I cant all it as its so uncertain but I'm hoping it bounces further good luck, pre market USA is up so fingers crossed.

Will this break the 8 barrier today !!

bhants - I agree sometimes we read the wisdom but as always the proof is in the pudding and it is only simmering, if we leave it long enough hopefully we should see it rise. I'm not aware of anything today in terms of negatives to pull the price down, ill be the first to admit I always side on the manipulation bandwagon but of course there maybe things happening we are not aware of. We are aware of Debt, sales, etc etc , lets see where we are in the spring.
