Should be Tuesday 28th sorry

As I write this (Tuesday 27th 0830am) Ventura is leaving dry dock in Hamburg

Just got EMail from P & O stating testing and covid 19 vaccination are no longer necessary except for cruise J301 COVID-19 vaccination and testing are no longer mandatory for guests travelling on our holidays, apart from those booked on cruise J301. We are on N306 on 2nd March which up till now was one of the required to test cruises. Things changing quite rapidly

Ventura still occupying dry dock in Hamburg. She wont be back in Southampton for tomorrows 3 day cruise, which I guess has been cancelled. Hopefully all will be well for our 2nd March 35 nighter to Bahamas, Miami etc. Link to webcam attached https://www.empire-riverside.de/en/around-the-hotel/#live-view-at-the-port-of-hamburg

For anyone interested. Ventura arrived in Hamburg last night for refit. She's due to resume service with N305 late February.. Were on her for the next cruise N306 . https://www.hamburg.de/livecam-michel/ Link is the webcam where she can be viewed

She's made it to Southampton. !!

Tracking websites show Aurora has now left the dry dock and is heading towards North Sea. So should be in place for her next cruise on the 8th July

Hi All. Due to sail on Aurora for 21 nights in August. Tracking her position, she has been in Hamburg since 11th June. Does anyone know the reason. I cant find any reference to her going for refit and her next advertised cruise is on 5th July. There appear to be gaps in her schedule until after our cruise. Just curious as to the lack of information. Cheers Les
