Fla Senior Posted December 3, 2017 #51 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Yeah...somethings not right... A day and a half to get to Mobile?? I guess its possible they could work on her the next 24 hours.... But best case.... looking at a late Monday arrival back in NOLA It didn't take a day and a half. She sat just outside the port entrance for most of the day waiting on the Fantasy to leave. After Fantasy left she moved into dock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackieSea Posted December 3, 2017 #53 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Does anyone know if there's been an official comment or press release directly from carnival to the public about this? I haven't been able to find anything - weird that they're not trying to spin it or do damage control at all.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoName Posted December 3, 2017 #54 Share Posted December 3, 2017 We were on the nov 25 cruise they have a propeller problem. The pitch of the prop can change and now it will only go to 20% and they cannot get enough thrust to go full speed only can make 14 instead of 21. Sitting in a motel in N.O. wait on the dec 4 cruise we were on a b/b/b so our middle cruise was canceled. The ship is at the mouth of the miss river headed to moblie ala for dry dock should be there sometime in the morning. Hope they get it fixed or let us know soon so I can cruise or go home. That is horrible for you....right in the middle of a b/b/b...sorry!:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flatbush Flyer Posted December 4, 2017 #60 Share Posted December 4, 2017 My Daughter flew down to Naw'lins this morning for this cruise. They were not informed by carnival until this afternoon. stuck for 4 days until flights back, not pleased have to pay for hotel. Dinner at Commanders Palace or Brigtsen's should ease their disappointment. Sit back and down a few Sazeracs!

diesteldorf Posted December 4, 2017 #74 Share Posted December 4, 2017 I will be curious to know how or when they will handle the lifeboat drill. Also, I normally don't eat a big lunch on embarkation day, and typically wait until early seating in the dining room. However, I wonder if the dining rooms will even be open tonight.

Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Forums mobile app Based on past experience with a delayed boarding (i.e., a fustercluck) there will be open seating dinner for everyone (regardless of your actual dinner assignment) until it's time for the muster drill.
