c11nno Posted February 19, 2016 #1 Share Posted February 19, 2016 (edited) We have just had an e-mail from our tour operator confirming a change of itinerary for Sweden, we are no longer docking at Nynashamn we are docking in Stockholm instead on 26th July 16. Does anyone know why this might be ? We are going to lose 5hrs in port.:confused: Edited February 19, 2016 by c11nno Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northender Posted February 19, 2016 #2 Share Posted February 19, 2016 I would check out your travel itinerary on Princess.com. If nothing has changed, give them a call. Believe it or not, while sailing in the Carib, our tour operator knew before we did of the change in port.:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second, you are already in town and don't need expensive and time consuming transfers to town. Princess used to dock in town at the ferry dock across from old town and in an industrial area northeast of town for the small ships. It was great docking in town. If you walk east on the ferry dock you can board the harbor ferry boats and ride around town. Lots of places to go like the Vasa ship museum, Skansen historical park, art museum and old town. Saves your feet. You can also get a Stockholm Card and this includes museum entries, ferries and buses. You may not need a tour operator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunsetbeachgal Posted February 19, 2016 #6 Share Posted February 19, 2016 (edited) Sailing in through the Stockholm Archipelago is one of the prettiest and best cruising experiences we have had. Right up there with sailing in or out of Venice. We chose another cruise line for our Baltic cruse last year because Princess was docking at Nyasham. This is a good thing, most of the docks are very close to town. Stockholm is gorgeous! Edited February 19, 2016 by sunsetbeachgal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougH Posted February 19, 2016 #7 Share Posted February 19, 2016 I looked and my May 12 cruise has the same change. Someone on my roll call got an email notification from Princess about it but I haven't seen one yet. Kind of nice to know as I have an independent tour booked with SPB while in port. Will see how it affects things when I contact them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c11nno Posted February 19, 2016 Author #8 Share Posted February 19, 2016 I don't mind the change at all,just wondered why it had happened. I would much rather dock in Stockholm, so it's a win win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthonyy7 Posted February 20, 2016 #9 Share Posted February 20, 2016 I haven't got any notification and don't see any changes on my itinerary. You can look up to see what ships dock in Stockholm and the Regal is scheduled a number of times this summer and my sailing is one of them. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
