Zaandam Deck Plans - After SOE Upgrade

[fsdj1097]

Has anyone sailed on the Zaandam after the SOE Upgrade?

If so, where did they put the Windstar Cafe?

The curren deckplans on HAL Website still show the Java Cafe and Bar on the Promenade Deck.

Another other changes to deck plans since SOE?

Thanks for your replies.

Zaandam came out of drydock just prior to SuperBowl week - so nobody has sailed on her post SOE yet.

There will be no Windstar Cafe - the new coffee bar is a part of the new library/internet lounge sponsored by New York Times (I forget what its called - Expedition? Excursion?:confused: ) in the space that was occupied by the old library & cardroom on Upper Promenade.

There are sure to be similar expansions to the gym/spa and new winebar in front of the Wajang Theatre/Culinary Arts Center as Ryndam had done.

HAL has not seen fit to update the deckplans for Ryndam post SOE-upgrade. Who knows when that will happen???:(

I suppose the SuperBowl fans were enjoying the new changes.

Can't wait to sail on the Zaandam and enjoy the new mattresses. DW had to request one of the "egg crate" mattress toppers because of back issues.

Will these new speciality coffee places have the same type of minimal charges as the Vista ships?

Does anybody know if 2/26 is the first trip on the Zaandam since being in drydock?

The HAL website shows an Eastern Caribbean itenerary leaving on 02/19.
