CleoPat Posted November 24, 2010 #1 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Just noticed out my office window in Miami (near the port) what looks like Allure sailing along the coast and then making a turn. There were NO ships in the Port of Miami today. We figured it had to be Allure, but did it sail today from Port Everglades down the coast?:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinR Posted November 24, 2010 #2 Share Posted November 24, 2010 A crew member told me they were doing a Thanksgiving cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momof2angels Posted November 24, 2010 #3 Share Posted November 24, 2010 We disembarked yesterday and it was scheduled to sail last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleoPat Posted November 24, 2010 Author #4 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Well, it looks like it sailed today instead of last night! It's the Allure. I can see the "hole" as it turned through binoculars:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momof2angels Posted November 24, 2010 #5 Share Posted November 24, 2010 I just looked through yesterday's Cruise Compass and it says they were having the Muster Drill, but I don't actually see a sailing time....I guess I just assumed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleoPat Posted November 24, 2010 Author #6 Share Posted November 24, 2010 I cannot imagine all the tourists sitting out on Miami Beach seeing this ship sail past. What a sight that must have been:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPMichael Posted November 24, 2010 #7 Share Posted November 24, 2010 The Allure departed last night for a special non revenue 3 day thanksgiving cruise and will return to Ft Lauderdale on Friday and resume its inaugural sailings. It is not unusual for the ship to remain just off the coast of Miami and Ft Lauderdale during these cruises to nowhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChuckL Posted November 24, 2010 #8 Share Posted November 24, 2010 I was looking at Where is the Allure on portfever.com earlier today, and saw that she was indeed off of Miami Beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niteprey2 Posted November 24, 2010 #9 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Looks like it's just going in circles for now, but I would still like to be on it. Oh well guess I'll have to wait till 12/5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PortFever Posted November 26, 2010 #10 Share Posted November 26, 2010 I was looking at Where is the Allure on portfever.com earlier today, and saw that she was indeed off of Miami Beach. Here's a time-lapse video compilation from the forward looking webcam on-board Allure, including the time she was off Miami Beach.

CruisingAmazona Posted November 27, 2010 #11 Share Posted November 27, 2010 The Allure is taking it's maiden voyage, tomorrow Sunday, Nov 28, on a one night cruise to nowhere. It is a fundraiser event for the Miami/Fort Lauderdale Chapters of United Way. This is it's maiden voyage and as is traditional will also be the naming ceremony and christening by the Godmother (whoever that may be). I have been fortunate enough to be invited on this great event and am looking forward to it. I am presently also booked for September 4, 2011 on the Allure. What you saw on Wednesday off the Miami Beach coast was just trial runs the ship is doing to get ready for tomorrow. No guests aboard because the ship has not yet been christened or taken it's maiden voyage. Looking forward to seeing this masterful ship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
