I just checked in and saw this thread, and now I'm feeling pretty lucky. After news of the potential change came out a couple of weeks ago, I checked the Diamond itineraries and realized that we were booked on the last 2005 European itinerary (B2B October 15-29, Istanbul-Rome-Barcelona). I booked it because we loved the itinerary and people here loved the ship, which we hadn't experienced, plus at that time (last summer) it was 2-for-1. I'm so glad it looks as if we will be able to experience the Diamond, even if it is on its Swan Song.
