Bob, Thanks for the update. We do this itinerary on March 8th and I am looking forward to how things go, especially St. Thomas and St. Maarten arrival and departure times. Enjoy your week.

We got out on April 5th, and I'll be watching the same things.....hopefully, they get her fixed before then. RCI could hold ABB responsible for all losses if they can't fix her outside of drydock, so I'm sure ABB's management is sweating bullets right now.

True. She'll have to average 19.7 knots to get to St. Thomas on time.

Yep....Tuesday is game day......

I watched her glide in to Pier #1 at 6:10 AM. Nice sight. 4 more weeks for us!

8 weeks for us......and the first time we're taking the kids with us.....

Good morning, kids......as I type this, she's inside the harbor at PC. On time arrival this week, now let's see what she does on the Eastern run...

Thanks for taking the time out of your vacation to provide the updates, Barklee......

Make sure you take a nightlight or two.....those interior cabins are DARK......

For you guys that are going out next week on the Eastern run, would you mind posting what nights they're doing formal night? I need to start the discussions with SWMBO regarding when we're doing Sabor and Chops....

According to Marine Traffic, she averaged 18 knots all night long, and she only needs to do about that again tonight. This question won't get answered until Friday night/Saturday when we see what speed she can make coming back from Cozumel.

I completely agree. By the way, what do you need to get off the ship for when it's your honeymoon…

 

 

Hello! My name is Kevin.

Logic says just to make sure all the names match on each person's identification.....or carry a copy of your marriage license with you if it doesn't.

32 days till we sail on March 8th (honeymoon). So I'm concerned.

What's to worry about? Barring a catastrophic failure that requires immediate drydock (highly unlikely), you will still go get onboard and go somewhere warm and tropical. My #1 rule for happy cruising (and I know it's been said around here before) is to choose the ship as the destination and don't worry about the scheduled ports of call. This is your honeymoon cruise. Choose to be happy and have fun on it right now.

Don't sweat the small stuff. Fixipod issues qualify as small stuff in my book.

Count me as just another lurker that's keeping an eye on this issue.....I've got 2 months before we get on board, so I've got time to let things settle out.
