Just watched the tail end of the NA leaving, watched her coming in this morning. Bon Voyage fair winds & smooth seas.

For the 2019 Alaska season, Princess is moving Royal Princess to the West Coast. In order to be competitive, one of the Pinnacle Class vessels may end up in that market as well.

 

Sister ship Majestic P. coming down under next season.

Seems to me she's swinging the wrong way!:eek:

I agree! When she sailed last week, I thought her departure from Pier 19 was odd looking.

[rkacruiser]

Maybe she has a rookie Staff Captain aboard and the ship's Master is allowing him to gain some experience in handling the ship.

Hopefully not a medical emergency (yn).

[Vict0riann]

Definitely! Backing-up practice...:)

[erewhon]

Westy to be last away today.:cool:

[erewhon]

Westy bringing in gangway. 3 late toots from Summit.

[ger_77]

Oh my gosh, with so many errands to run today, I almost missed this!

 

Smooth Sailing! :) :) :)

[Happily@Sea]

20 to 30 minutes on Westie yet.

[erewhon]

Another delay on Westy 20-30 minutes!

[rkacruiser]

Definitely! Backing-up practice...:)

 

Imaginary conversation on Summit's Bridge:

 

Staff Captain: "How did I do Captain?"

 

Captain: "You need more practice."

 

Pilot: Silent, but thinking, I need some Tylenol.

[erewhon]

No toots from Crown!

[erewhon]

Westy to drop lines shortly.

[Vict0riann]

Who's going first - Maersk Winnipeg or Westie?

[erewhon]

Cargoship to come in before Westy departs perhaps.
