Allure and propulsion problems.

[zywnywld]

Fantastic to get an answer why Allure was leaving so soon.

Why isn't CNN reporting on this as another devastating blow to the cruise industry? :rolleyes:

 

 

Because the funnel is not a red and blue whale tail. :o

Just see what they do if RCI doesn't get the problem fixed this week.

I don't think their propaganda department could come up with negative spin on repairs. They can give any positive news on making the ships better and less susceptible to issues at sea!

 

Maybe a story should read "Cruise ship goes into wet dock for devastating repairs to it propulsion systems caused by..." Nah still would come out a positive and well positive news doesn't sell like the negative news sells.

Looks like they are already working on the Aqua Theater pool, I wonder if they will keep the webcams working during the week of the wet dock?

The Allure is doing 7 day Med cruises from Apr 2015 until Oct 2015, then she's going back to Miami (and I'll be on her)

do you mean FT Lauderdale?

[papcx]

Looks like I've confused a few people (as well as myself)

 

Yes,we sail into Ft Lauderdale. Isn't that in (or near) Miami. I suppose it's a UK/USA thing!

I woke up this morning and turned on my webcam feed for fll and allure was not there had to do a little research to figure out how I lost her. She is kinda big to louse. then I found this thread and checked her track found out she is on her way to dry dock for repairs. She had already unloaded people and on her way to Freeport for dry dock. Hope they don't run into problems and is back in fll for next sunday.:eek:

A few UK TAs have it on there websites that our Allure Transatlantic in 2015 will be to Miami rather than to Fort Lauderdale....so you are not the only one confused.

Sort of like saying you'll be docking at Bristol instead of Southampton; they aren't too far apart, but planning for pickup or excursions would be different.

 

Aloha,

Strange seeing a ghost ship on all of those cams!

[nolesrule]

Ft. Lauderdale is not Miami, St. Petersburg (or Clearwater for that matter) is not Tampa, Fort Worth is not Dallas.

 

We have more twin cities in this country than just Minneapolis-St. Paul, and the people who live in the "secondary" city tend to take not knowing the difference as disrespect. :D

Onboard Webcam indicates they have already arrived. There is land visible to the rear of the Aqua Theater. Just about 5 hours?!?

Freeport is very close to FL.

[CHAMPDDS]

Yep- you can see the crew waiting at the railings on the cams...

Marine Traffic shows Allure still sailing with an ETA of 19:45.

 

Correction. ETA 19:45 UTC. Allure should have arrived at 2:25 PM Eastern Standard Time

Especially the rich. As I was told, the Millionaires play in Miami, but the Billionaires play in FT. Lauderdale. Or something of that Sorts.

Always beer o'clock somewhere in the world so we are never late or early :)

Probably just the weather.

 

The Daytona 500 was delayed several hours yesterday due to thunderstorms.
