deborahjo Posted March 23, 2014 #1 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Just wondering if the port does not open can the Magic go into New Orleans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Days Posted March 23, 2014 #2 Share Posted March 23, 2014 It could....the Dream is around the same size and that's the Dreams home port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRock59 Posted March 23, 2014 #3 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Magic is same class as the Dream and since the Dream is arriving and Homporting in NOLA starting next month then I'd say yes the Magic could get into NOLA if needed. But hopefully Galveston will open up the Harbor and at least let the Magic and RCI ship in today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deborahjo Posted March 23, 2014 Author #4 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Hoping it will open but just looking at where the Magic may have to dock if they cannot open the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deborahjo Posted March 23, 2014 Author #5 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Over on Princess they were told at 12:33 that they were more then likely not leaving today. Means channel will not be opened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artymis77 Posted March 23, 2014 #6 Share Posted March 23, 2014 There's a 6+ hour drive between Galveston and NOLA. I wouldn't think they'd want to do that unless absolutely necessary. Bringing passengers 370 miles from their vehicles would stink, not to mention the folks waiting to board. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excitedcruiser Posted March 23, 2014 #7 Share Posted March 23, 2014 I am currently on Magic. Been anchored since 4:30 am. We are one hour outside Galveston. Many many ships out here. Royal Caribbean is next to us. No word as of right now what they plan to do. They opened up shops and casinos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hotdog 52 Posted March 23, 2014 #9 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Yes, New Orleans can handle the Dream. It was either the Voyager or the Navigator of the Seas that was in NO for a while. They are both 138,000 ton vessels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRock59 Posted March 24, 2014 #10 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Both Cruise ships have come in to Galveston. RCI is boarding tonight, Carnival is boarding tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
