Copper 10-8 was on the Noordam before and after dry dock. He posted some photos of the refurbishment. It looks very nice.

While others are looking for their post-drydock pictures of the Noordam, you can see my photographic review of the Noordam from May 2015 (post-drydock):

We'll be on her the week of 19 September as well. We sailed her December 2014, so I will be able to comment on the freshening up.

Thanks, sir. Between your photos and Roger's you can get a really good sense of the updates.

Thanks for posting those photos. I forgot that you had such a comprehensive set. (I don't know why. It just happens sometimes. ;) )

We were on the Noordam in May 2015 where I scanned all of the On Locations as well as the menus. These might help in your planning:

Hope this helps in your planning.

Pictures like this make you humble you are in just one huge floating metal box when at sea. Forgiving any quirks and blips is in order. Hope they don't change the Library, like they have on the other Vista ships.

So now I'm curious. How often is a ship scheduled for a dry dock?

With HAL, every 30-36 months; 5-6 ships a year

Thanks, Copper-10. You are always so knowledgeable!
