Short answer: Unknown.
Long answer: 1) The ones on virgin red had been around a while and ran their course. So I would not read in to those ending. 2) We’re currently in the busiest season for holiday bookings, so it would make sense for them to wait and see which cruises have the most spare capacity. 3) Ultimately they are very unlikely to fill all sailings in what is really only the 2nd year of proper operations. 4) There seems to be plenty of people willing to hand over ~£1k of points to fill spots who would not sail otherwise (I am one… I’ll sail for a 100k points offer, but I can’t see myself sailing longterm … Or for cash). 5) Their strategy to date seems to be to fill empty spots attracting these non-cruisers … So it depends if this strategy continues / is still useful.
