Looked at the Couples Cruise website and see a few cruises scheduled. My question is, how far out do these lifestyle/adults only cruises get planned? I think we might try and a cruise in 2015, but only see a fall 2014 as the furthest out cruise. Am I missing something?
No. You're not missing anything. The last one planned, so far, is Rio in Early 2015.
Our first LS Cruise was Nov 2012 and we booked it in Dec of 2010!!!!!! And it was almost sold out then!!
"Rumor" has it that they are going to be scaling back the number of the Charter LS Couples Cruises as they are slower to sell out than before.
OUR Opinion is that they will announce some 2015 cruises about a year out in 2014 to create a frenzy, rather than have people slowly book them. But We'll see.

Royal Caribbean (our favorite cruise line) is doing a major reshuffling of their fleet in 2015. They have two new megaships that will be introduced into the fleet between now and then and they are still working out some of the details on where the ships will be located.
They have told us that several ships are leaving for Europe and their new Australian and China/Far East itineraries are very popular so they are going to move some additional ships to these areas of the world. We have received one proposal, but they are asking us to wait until January before making any decisions for 2015. We are flying to Miami on Jan 7th to meet with their deployment team to discuss options.
We hope to have some announcements by February for our 2015 schedule. Normally, we sign contracts 2 years out, but the reshuffling has caused a delay in any contracts for 2015.
We went through this a couple of years ago when we signed a contract for the Mariner (out of Los Angeles) and before we announced it, we were told that the ship was relocating to Europe and we ended up without a charter in the fall of 2011. We have been trying to put together a cruise out of the west coast ever since, but Royal Caribbean has not had any ships based on the west coast ever since. Luckily, we were able to get a contract with Celebrity Cruises for our 1st West Coast charter in May, 2014. That ship is almost sold out.
Hope that helps...
