Here is the latest update of 2026 for the Dry Docks, Charters & Groups information.
There have been some additions since the December update, so check your dates! There still are a few gaps in sailing schedules which I have listed as ‘No itinerary listed’ until more details can be discovered. Many charters repeat annually, so the gaps will probably be reserved for some of the ‘usual suspect’, but until their websites are updated I am unable to list their details.
For any errors, I apologise in advance!
On the ‘Groups’ element, please remember that I can only post information that is available on the web or from verified information posted by others. There is always the chance that you will encounter a group on your cruise, perhaps a large family group, a ‘clan’ group or possibly Corporate Incentive/Marketing groups, which may or may not impinge on facilities onboard.
Thanks to those who help with the gathering of this information and as usual, if you can provide any information on upcoming Dry Docks, Charters or Groups, then please post to this thread and I will update the information in the next file.
New information since last update is shown in RED.
