This happens all the time in this industry. Cruise lines evaluate bookings and redeploy ships to the areas with the potential to sell more.

Redeployments and itinerary changes are frequent and for numerous reasons. In fact, just this week Virgin Voyages changed the itineraries of four sailings for next February in order to have a 3-hour meetup and photo op with four ships in the middle of the Caribbean.
