Default Zenith on the Move again

Just an FYI, Zenith is being moved within the Royal Caribbean corporation from Pullmantur to ZDF cruises, a French line.

They could move her back to Celebrity and to Baltimore. Much rather be on her to Bermuda and dock at the old ports.

I agree, either Baltimore or Hoboken going to Bermuda. Been to Bermuda a number of times and docking in Hamilton and then St. George is much more perferable than the Kings Wharf..

Hi Bob & Phyl! We still think of that cruise as one of our best. What a great group of people we had!

We saw Zenith last October in Mykonos, with her X painted red.
Sadly although I miss her, she would not fit in with Celebrity now; no balconies, although they could be added. Also, the Fleet Bar was replaced with staterooms.

I guess you can't go back!

Hmmm... A 3-day cruise out of Marseille could fit in very well with my 2014 travel plans...

Hi, to you both! That was a great cruise. What a send-off from Hamilton. After 10 cruises on her, she is still our favorite ship. But, she (the REAL Zenith) is gone forever. Oh well---------.

We have so many wonderful memories of this ship! It was so lovely to dock right in Hamilton and St. George. We still sail the Summit, but the Dockyard doesn't do it for me!

Croisieres De France is just a subsidiary of Pullmantur, and they switch ships easily with a coat of paint. They will be marketed by Pullmantur everywhere else but in France. almost like an airline codeshare.
Spanish and French spoken on CDF, Spanish and English on Pullmantue.
I've sailed both ships, the Horizon (2009) and Zenith (2011) with Pullmantur. Both are still great little ships and still providing a good cruise experience.

She was our very first cruise (1993) and we sailed her again 2001 to Bermuda. We loved her and think of her fondly. All other ships still pale in comparison to her. She was very special.
