Marc, I'm not sure what your prediction is based on but I hope it comes true. Frankly, if I find that I cannot book excursions that we want online before the cruise, that could be a deal breaker, even though I know that once onboard there is a reasonable possibility that some excursions could become available.
We have been very satisfied with the new all-inclusive excursions, and I really don't like the notion that the unlimited "free" excursions will now be subject to priority reservations by cabin class.
