Oosterdam- Back Down Under?

[DDG 41]

Looking though the Sydney Cruise schedule It seems that Oosterdam is taking over Noordam's Australian Season in 2020-2021.

So does anyone have any knowledge about this or when we could see something official from HAl.

It Also looks like she won't be docking at OPT Much and is at White Bay A lot more often than currently.

Oosterdam is a sister ship to the Noordam, along with the Westerdam and the Zuiderdam. Named for the four compass points.

For every turn  except one that is listed for the Oosterdam for 20/21 there is a larger ship ( won't fit under e bridge) at the OPT so White Bay is the only option . She is at the OPT for the one turn when no other ship in port.

the itineraries are already on HAL`s site.  We booked two on Friday.  Auckland to Sydney followed by Sydney to Honolulu.

We had also noticed that Oosterdam was booked in here at Port Chalmers. As already posted HAL has released 20/21 itineraries.

The nice thing is other than the turnaround day in Sydney and the 1 day in Melbourne, it's all new for us. We've never been to New Zealand or Fiji, etc.
