We've decided not to book this 30 day voyage since we visited seven of the 18 ports last December (India, Maldives), last April (Dubai, Oman). Have asked our TA (vs me sending a personal email request to President of Regent, due to scale/size our TA represents) to ask Regent if we can board (on a pro-rated basis) this voyage on Dec 6th, in the Seychelles. We would then be seeing ports for the first time, esp the Africa ports we so covet. Doubt the answer will be yes since this voyage is selling so well. Have learned tho,you never know the answer unless you ask the ?.
