Oceana late arrival today?

[Lactodorum123]

Interested spectator this morning at Southampton and noticed Oceana arriving at 11.00am with 2 tugs. I know she is not as manoeuvrable as the newer ships but does anyone know why she was late in?

According to their facebook post it was to do with bad weather. It was asking passengers to delay their arrival time by about two hours.

 

 

Good morning, for those guests travelling on Oceana's Iberian cruise E623 departing Southampton tomorrow, Oceana's arrival in Southampton will be slightly delayed as a result of bad weather. If you are coming down independently please plan to arrive two hours later than your stated arrival time, if you are traveling down by coach your departure time will not be affected. We apologise for any inconvenience caused and would like to assure all guests that Oceana's onward itinerary will not be affected, we hope you have a wonderful cruise with us.

We left Gibraltar at 13.00hrs Tuesday. Unfortunately F10 headwinds most of the way back limited safe progress to 16 to 17 knots. Captain announced Wednesday afternoon that we would be late into Southampton with an ETA of midday Friday. A bit bumpy on the way up but certainly not as bad as it can be. Whilst it was great to be on deck for a sunny sail in to Southampton the Friday afternoon drive home soon erased that memory...

Glad everyone enjoyed their cruise. I'm back on her in May. [emoji636]
