Her transponder is already turned off.

Does anyone know how much crew is left aboard Fantasy?

http://www.cruisemapper.com also has it but as said many aren‘t accurate right now. Has also included a history of each vessel. 

The other two are Norwegian Jewel and Oceania Regatta

Two of the older P&O Australia are already slated for a new operator. Pacific Aria will become „Ida Pfeiffer“ and Pacific Dawn will become „Amy Johnson“ both with CMV Cruise & Maritime Voyages. Both were scheduled to enter service with CMV in 2021.  Wonder if these two are included in the 6 ships to leave. 

Crown had also docked at the pier at her first arrival into Colombo prior to her anchorage. 

She is back at the pier as this post is written. 

Sky Princess as well as Nieuw Statendam and Zaandam also leaving Great Bahama Bank all bound for Rotterdam.

This is already so since January. It has nothing to do with the current extension of pause of operations.

Zaandam still sporting San Antonio in Chile in the AIS as her next destination. Heading North with 17 knots.

Coral Princess Update

Princess Cruises can confirm that Coral Princess will arrive in Port Miami this morning, April 4. Disembarkation of guests is expected to take several days due to limited flight availability. Guests requiring shoreside medical care will be prioritized to disembark first.

Disembarkation for guests who are fit to fly is anticipated to begin on Sunday, April 5. These guests will transfer direct from the ship to Miami International Airport for flights home.

Those with any respiratory symptoms, or who are still recovering from being ill previously, will remain on board until medically cleared by the ship’s doctors.

There are 1,898 people onboard including 1,020 guests and 878 crew members.

Coral Princess departed March 5 from San Antonio (Santiago) for a South America voyage which was scheduled to end in Buenos Aires on March 19. In response to the global spread of COVID-19, Princess Cruises announced a voluntary 60-day pause of operations on March 12, becoming one of the first companies in the leisure travel industry to take this proactive measure.

We appreciate that the operations underway for Coral Princess would not be possible without the coordination and resources of many federal, state and local government agencies. We thank all those involved for their assistance in managing this very complex and fluid situation.

Wonder why they chose Miami which is packed with cruise ships where at least the Crew is still on board over a rather empty Port Everglades with the two HAL ships

There she comes

So, the Rotterdam will be docking and disembarking first?

She‘s moored. You can see the Lines. People waving with towels to the news helicopters. 

Hi there,

following along and enjoying your live report. There is not much with the Diamond and cruises in this area. So I do hope you‘re having a fabulous time. 

I see you‘re having a Korbel sparkling wine which my wife loves so much but which was taken off the drinks menu on both our last cruises on Ruby and Star. Do they offer Korbel on the menu on Diamond?

Happy sailing

Dennis

Also interested in getting the name of the cruise director and the captain of the Golden Princess. Anyone recently been on her and willing to report?

We have been on the very same cruise and can only stress your statements. Wonderful food and an excellent crew. 

Went on Star Princess the following Sunday and just returned today. Weatherwise not much better as we missed Tracy Arm Fjord due to fog and Victoria due to high wind. Naturalist also was a disaster. 

Compared to Ruby, the Star crew not came anywhere near the Ruby crew. 

Cheers,

Dennis 

He was on Star Princess a couple of weeks ago. The current master of Star Princess is Mariano Manfuso

This hasn’t been updated any time recently. We had Captain Ronald Wilson on the Ruby Princess to Alsska in June now

Diamond Princess was just docked into Drydock in Singapore Sembawang just yesterday until February 2nd

Thanks, really should have guessed it from stateroom numbers...

Hi everyone,

I was wondering on which side the entrance to the interior cabins B507 till B537 would be? Is that on the port or starboard side? I cannot recognize that from the deck plans. Are all the doors on the same side? Any help would be gladly appreciated. Thanks

Dennis

Thank you very much. We indeed become Platinum so we would be entitled to Priority Check-In for the second voyage. Then we‘ll just bring our notification with us
