Island escape in south china sea

Very strange today the Island escape is showing via its satellite tracking as being in the South China Sea???

Very strange....perhaps she is being shown to a prospective purchaser....assuming she is still for sale?

My vessel finder still has her in Cadiz... Perhaps they took one look & sent her back. I am looking to book for June if the price is right so I hope she doesn't go anywhere 'till then. :confused:

AIS still has her in Cadiz. If she is in South China Sea, she will have to get moving as the crew start arriving at the beginning of March!!

Hey MChappy,,looks like we are on the same cruise again this year!! Have you and Mrs MC done souks and sangria before? Will I like it:cool:

Hi Cappers you will love the souks and sangria 1 new port for us this year on this one "Motril"

As for IE being in the China sea on AIS they got that wong :D

I would love it if you gentlemen and your lady wives would have a birthday drink with me sometime on this cruise,,I'm fairly normal ;)

See you on board then.

PS any excuse for a drink ;)

Cracked it cappers :D just recreate your countdown clock as there was an * mark in front of the age *0th if you get my drift?

Hi Cappers,

Yes - we have done it a couple of times, last time was in 2012 with RR and the lovely Mrs RR - one of our favourite itineraries. Mrs MChap loves the shopping in Gibralter (and it is a great place) as they have the shops there like M & S, Morrisons etc. that we haven't got here in Mallorca.

Tangiers is not a very nice place but the other stops are fine.

I would love it if you gentlemen and your lady wives would have a birthday drink with me sometime on this cruise,,I'm fairly normal ;)

It will be great to meet up with you and celebrate your birthday, although I can't say that myself and the famous RR could be referred to as 'fairly normal' :)

Don't you love it when a topic goes off Topic lol, gone from where IS the Island Escape to meet you in the bar :D my type of conversation after a few pints :p

Meet you in the bar is the best conversation on holidoodles innit:cool: I hope we have some pleasant enough weather so I can spend plenty of time at my favourite I.E watering hole,,the much loved Sailaway bar!

Nice timer :D

How come every time I am looking to book the IE they always trying to sell it? In fact the first time I booked the IE for Nov' 2010 it was the first year that they mothballed her for the winter... They sent me a letter saying I had been transferred to the Destiny (no major change cruise compo as they termed it an upgrade) but carried on selling tickets for the IE cruise for a couple of months... So wondering if she were to be sold, when would the customers be told.

Anyhow on my two visits to her so far she was full of mostly return bookers, so they must be doing something right.

Now if they could transfer the crew, entertainments team & especially the chef & buffets to the Dream, they would only need to double the size of the casino for the perfect product.

How come every time I am looking to book the IE they always trying to sell it?

You just can't take a hint stevio.:D:D
