rebelcruiser Posted August 27, 2019 #1 Share Posted August 27, 2019 I’m currently on the Dream and we’re experiencing a technical issue that’s slowed us down quite a bit. The ship is skipping Progresso today in order to make Galveston Thursday morning on time. The staff has laid laid on many more activities for us to enjoy. A $50 credit has been applied to sail and sign accounts and any excursion booked through the ship have been refunded. We left Cozumel late last night about 730pm with no explanation given as to why. Now we know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mercedes355 Posted August 27, 2019 #7 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Following this thread for a friend that's supposed to leave on the Dream on Thursday. Does anyone know how major of a problem this is? Hopefully, it's a quick fix when it gets back to Galveston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From my experience of Progrosso, you got a better deal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not necessarily the top speed, just the speed needed to make it from Cozumel to Galveston for a normal arrival. Figure they have the 6-8 hours that you would have been in port as extra steaming hours, so they don't have to go as fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebelcruiser Posted August 27, 2019 Author #11 Share Posted August 27, 2019 I doubt it’s top speed as well. Just passing information along. I also agree $50 credit is a much better deal than stopping in Progresso! I was planning on a quiet day onboard. Now it’s just a rowdier day onboard! No worries!

Ship was only due to get in to Galveston this morning, so, no, it would not have been fixed yet. Have to see what happens now in port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
