The passengers better hustle if Westerdam really leaves at 4. I notice that the schedule has changed so there are fifteen minutes between each planned departure.

Per the port agent, several of those 46 are independent; in other words; no clue as to their means of getting to FLL, their ETA, etc

It is getting hard to wait, but I do remember when it was more than a year out. So looking forward to getting onboard.

Open up both webcams from the link you've been given, but mute one of the mics otherwise you'll have distorted echo. Then you will be able to hear everything that we are hearing.

Watertight doors on the lower deck closed for departure; SOP

Looking forward to trying some during our week in Australia prior to our cruise.

Is it true that due to a recent change in CPB regulations, on closed loop cruises where passports are not required, PAX who miss sailaway are no longer allowed to board at a foreign port even if they have a passport, on a closed loop EVERYBODY must do the complete loop?

 

If so, I'd REALLY hate to miss sailaway.
