Gnomey Posted May 18, 2016 #1 Share Posted May 18, 2016 I have just watched Dawn Princess arriving at the OPT. They will be tied up around midnight. Did something "interesting" occur on this trip or was this the intended arrival time? Bit unusual for a cruise ship to arrive at midnight I would have thought. (most curious) Steve.

gbenjo Posted May 18, 2016 #4 Share Posted May 18, 2016 The Sydney Ports Schedule has her listed as arriving midnight the 18th and leaving midnight the 19th so it was all planned but don't know why. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LokiPoki Posted May 19, 2016 #8 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Minor repairs/maintenance is what we were told. No real change of schedule ...think we left Noumea all of about 1/2 hour earlier than originally stated on the itinerary but that's all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
