Nieuw Amsterdam dry dock?

[sunchaser49]

Wondering if anyone knows when the next dry dock/refurbishment might be for the Nieuw Amsterdam? I can’t seem to find any information online….

interestingly enough, she was due KeyWest today......BUT has docked in MIAMI instead,. and is expected to sailaway at 2300hr......Weather in the Keys certainly not a factor to re-route a ship.... and leaving at 2300hr ?

There have been other posts/comments on that elsewhere on these boards.

In summary, from my memory of those, these included:
Making a lot of accessibility improvements to doors, locations of loungers in spa, etc

Adding paper towel dispensers to public bathrooms

New lido tables and chairs

Maybe they got the word, "your not welcome here" - :)

Are you basing that off of published itinerary? She was not scheduled for Key West according to Caribe Nautical. Caribe Nautical is the ships' agent for the port of Key West. If a ship is not on their schedule, they are not going to Key West. I've had a cruise scheduled for Key West that I knew from that schedule was not going at least three months out, even though the change was not announced to passengers until a week out. The 2 city controlled berths have basically stopped accepting ships (might be taking an extremely low passenger count ship occasionally), so the only berth available is the privately controlled pier B.

I hope the paper towels are in addition to the little cloth towels in the public restrooms. Please tell me that cloth towels are still placed in those restrooms.
