dfmeeks Posted September 22, 2011 #1 Share Posted September 22, 2011 I just saw photos of the Triumph leaving NOLA for her last trip before dry dock. I can't wait to see her sail into Galveston!! Anyone know what day she'll arrive? I'm in Oklahoma but hope to watch on the webcam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tallyho8 Posted September 22, 2011 #2 Share Posted September 22, 2011 She will probably arrive early in the morning on October 6. She's halfway down the Mississippi now heading to Freeport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nlt46 Posted September 26, 2011 #4 Share Posted September 26, 2011 I sailed on the Triumph out of Miami her first year. After we do the Magic, I will have to sail on her again. Great memories... and I bet it will be more economical. I really like these Galveston cruises for not having to fly. Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ssb Posted September 27, 2011 #7 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Yes it will be an exciting time and period for Galveston 2012 and for all the cruisers near by!! Private enterprise also needs to come forward with cooperation and new services. These are the cruise lines, airports, airlines, rent car operations, hotels and transportation companies. There are lots of changes in Galveston occurring to make all this happen! Galveston better be ready!!!! Sure there will be hick ups along the way. It won’t be easy!! Here is hope is for the betterment of Galveston, cruisers and cruise lines, and for a lasting good relationship and evolving successful situation. We are lucky to live in Galveston, and will look forward to welcoming them and the changes!!!!!! Also we will be bringing to Galveston the Mariner from Rome! Wish we had the horns on the front like on Voyager when it arrived!! 2012 Galveston Ships:) Carnival Triumph Carnival Magic Disney Magic RCCL Mariner Princess Crown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texas Teen Posted October 4, 2011 #13 Share Posted October 4, 2011 I think I read a post somewhere on the Carnival forum that the Triumph would arrive on the 5th (Wednesday), the day before her first cruise from Galveston on the 6th. I might be wrong, however. (I couldn't confirm it with a Google search.) Just be aware she might arrive on the 5th... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texas Teen Posted October 5, 2011 #16 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Bad news: I think the time that Marine Traffic is showing for Triumph's arrival is GMT. If that's the case, Triumph's arrival will be at 5am Central, not 10am! :eek: Oops... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
