cmoose Posted February 13, 2014 #1 Share Posted February 13, 2014 I've read a few threads saying that maybe that NCL will be moving the Dawn out of Boston in 2015. Anyone have any info on if that's true and if so any thoughts on what ship would replace her?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alliezona09 Posted February 13, 2014 #2 Share Posted February 13, 2014 NCL website is still showing the Dawn doing the Bermuda run in June 2015~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpb718 Posted February 14, 2014 #3 Share Posted February 14, 2014 The Dawn will be doing the Bermuda runs out of Boston until the end of October 2015, after that it should be repositioning to somewhere for the winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare CTCruiser001 Posted February 14, 2014 #8 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Wish they would bring a new ship to Boston. Need a change from the Dawn. I can't be sure of the dates, but I want to say that Norwegian made a deal with the city of Boston to keep the Dawn sailing from their port to Bermuda for 10 years. This started back in 2008 or '09...I think. If this is true, we can expect this ship to likely be in Boston until 2018 or '19 for the Bermuda runs. If anyone can find an article on this, that would be great...I looked but couldn't find anything online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone have any info on if that's true and if so any thoughts on what ship would replace her?? You are right, a few threads talked about Ncl pulling out o Boston. It was because of the new fuel rule. All ships sailing within 200 miles of the coast must comply with new regulation within 2 years I think. When that came out, Ncl said it would increase the passenger fair by about 75$ per person and said they would leave Boston. The good news is that this week Ncl announced that they will comply with this new rule and install "scrubbers" I think...on 6 ships including the Dawn so it remains in Boston Sent from my iPhone using Cruise Critic Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROIE01581 Posted February 14, 2014 #12 Share Posted February 14, 2014 we just booked for the Aug 7-14 2015 cruise for 5 cabins. So the Dawn is still going to go out of Boston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biker@sea Posted February 14, 2014 #13 Share Posted February 14, 2014 ... and will dock right in Hamilton. That could be the deal breaker for me . I Don't like being locked up in the Dockyard at night with no bus service. Dawn has been in Boston long enough already it's time for a new ship.

mamaofami Posted February 14, 2014 #16 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Holland America docks right at Front Street giving easy access to town all night. Very convenient and they spend a bit more time in port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
