Re: august 1 updates
No Crystal Endeavor itineraries on their download file, nor online, so far today.
======
I entered the basic information from a brochure, but not the in-between ports and not the fares.
rollcall/rollcall.php?line=crystal&ship=endeavor
There are only 12 trips. Two go to Antarctica - from Australia, and that's something I've not seen before. Still, it would make more sense for me to go to Antarctica from the western hemisphere because the airfare will be less expensive.

So, just the 2019 world cruise changed today:
rollcall/rollcall.php?trip=4869
It looks like it went back to its original April 2016 fares.
Since it's the middle of the week, I'll look for updates again on Monday, and maybe by then Endeavor fares will be online. The brochure shows the entry fares - probably for new category S7 - so I imagine the spread between an S1 and an S7 is probably another $1200.

Endeavor itineraries are on the download file today, but they are not on the web site that I can see.
I can update to Fare Compare based on the download file, but I can't check that it's right against the web site, so proceed at your own risk ...
rollcall/farecompare.php?line=crystal&ship=endeavor
Also note that the preliminary brochure assumes that you get the Crystal Society discount, but I do not subtract that out on Fare Compare. Still, I can't figure out how they arrived at the brochure fares. For example, take the maiden cruise, where it says the fare is $21,612 - presumably for an S7. I calculate it as $22,749 (49498-24749-2000). The difference is $1,137, but I can't get that from any of the amounts on the file:
"Brochure Fare" Amount="49498"
"2-for-1 Savings" Amount="-24749"
"Book Now" Amount="-2000"
"Crystal Society Savings" Amount="-569"
"Full Payment" Amount="-540"
"Onboard Discount" Amount="-569"
"Port Charges" Amount="850"
I also noticed that the file shows the maiden cruise S7 as waitlisted, as well as many other categories. How can it be waitlisted already?
