She's come a long way since I saw her in the Marghera shipyard in late May. :)

Exciting she has had sea trials. :)

Lovely lady. Thanks for the photos.

Thanks for the pics. Counting the days till we board, unfortunately still in the triple digits!

Thanks for sharing! Will be on her in January. :cool:

Thanks for the video. We'll be cruising her in August 2019 Baltic cruise...a year more!

I imagine she will get a fresh coat of exterior paint before launch? Looks like the undercoat (white) is showing in several places along the side of the ship in the video.

Ah my favorite sound- a ship’s horn! Thanks for the video. 4 months until we sail on her.

Thanks for the video. We are booked on her maiden transatlantic Dec 5. It is exciting to see her on the move!

If you squint hard enough, you can see Oprah driving her. Some gals have all the luck.

Most definitely, she will. Heck HAL paints or touches up the hull every other month iirc on every ship. Rust forms FAST.

Ice to see pictures. Thank you.

Have to wait till October 2019 for my cruise. I was also on Maasdam during inaugural year!
