Now let's break apart the two components of net revenue yields. Net ticket yields were essentially flat. Our NAA brands were up 3%, driven by yield improvements in the Caribbean, while our EA brands were down 3.5%. Net onboard and other yields increased almost 2% with increases on both sides of the Atlantic. In summary, our second quarter adjusted EPS was $0.02 lower than the prior year, with the benefits from slightly higher net revenue yields and lower dry dock costs, driven by less dry dock days during the quarter, being more than offset by higher depreciation expense costing $0.03 and the $0.09 unfavorable net impact of fuel price and currency.
Turning to 2019 booking trends, at this point in time, cumulative advance bookings for the back half of 2019 are slightly ahead of the prior
Adidas Superstar Damen year on occupancy where prices that are in line with last year. Now let's drill down into the cumulative booked position for 2019. Cumulative advance bookings for our NAA brands are higher than the prior year on occupancy and slightly ahead on price, driven by nicely higher prices in the Caribbean and the seasonal European program, while pricing in Alaska is well lower than last year's record pricing.
Nike Air Max 97 Mujer Cumulative advance bookings for our EA brands are slightly behind the prior year on occupancy at lower prices, again driven by our EA brand sourcing in Continental Europe.Given our strong book position at the end of the second quarter, with less inventory remaining for sale than the same time the prior year, we had anticipated better pricing on booking volumes during the second quarter, which was included in our March guidance for the
Nike Air Max Thea Dames back half of the year. In light of these booking trends, primarily driven by our EA brands, we have lowered our price expectations on the remaining inventory. Therefore, we are forecasting full year net revenue yields to be approximately flat versus March guidance of up approximately 1%. Yield guidance for third quarter is now forecasted to be flat or down slightly versus the prior year, while our
Nike Air VaporMax Mujer fourth quarter, we are now forecasting yields
Nike Air Max 270 Dames to be lower.
We do expect yield improvement in both quarters in our NAA brands, which is being offset by yield declines in our EA brands. For the full year, we now expect yield increases in our NAA brands to be up more than 1%, which were impacted by the recent restrictions on travel to Cuba, while for the full year, we now expect yield declines in our EA brands to be more than 1%, driven by
Nike Roshe Run Mujer our EA brand sourcing in Continental Europe.
So now let me provide you with some additional color on our 2019 June guidance. The $0.08 favorable net impact of fuel price and currency is driven by lower fuel prices, which will benefit us $0.15, while currency movements will cost us $0.07. Our full year net cruise costs without fuel per ALBD guidance increased slightly as a result of the voyage disruptions and is now expected to be up approximately
Nike Air Max 270 Femme 0.7% versus March guidance of 0.5%.
