Scrapnana - thanks for the thread:)

 

Hope you enjoyed it and will join us often!

As she sails out of sight I guess it is time for me to go to bed. See you tomorrow for Oosterdam and Noordam.

It's weird - Every Monday [all season]: 2 Signature class ships

3 Tuesdays: 2 Vista class ships

On Wednesday May 17: 2 'R' Class ships

 

Then everyone settles into their schedule:

- Eurodam & N Amsterdam on Mondays

- Oosterdam alone for season on Tuesdays

-Noordam & Zaandam switching off Wed & Thurs for season

-Volendam & Amsterdam on Fridays for season [2 'R's again]

 

NO DAM ships on Sat or Sun.

That makes sense to me. If you figure they use Wednesday or Thursday each week for maintenance and upkeep, they've carved out a five day work week, with weekends off. That's pretty much what I've got.

Not sure who you are referring to regarding five day work weeks. :confused:

The local businesses including excursion operators can build their business models around a five day work week and miss very few tourists that way.

Once the season is in full swing there will be cruise ships in Juneau every day. Only HAL has ships on the five weekdays. The season is short and there are lots and lots of cruise ship passengers to take care of!

Ah, okay. Thanks for the correction. That makes a lot of sense too.

That is why it was confusing to me! I knew there were ships on weekends too.

It is not streaming and you may have to manually refresh, but excellent views of the ships.

If you read my original post, I only listed DAM ships and their schedules for Juneau.

This is a HAL forum, we are on the initial thread for the sail-ins and sailaways in Juneau, WHY would I care about some interloping ships from another cruise line? :D

 

The only time I mention them is when they are blocking my view of the beautiful, elegant DAM ships on the day of the sail-in posting. Kathi can mention them all she wants in the post for that day, me - I don't care. ;p :evilsmile: :D

Yikes.

 

All I did was ask since I was a bit confused by bUU's post about what the 5-day work week was about. And since there are ships everyday - dam and non-dam - that 5-day work week idea is nonsensical.

Eurodam in Ketchikan today.:) No rain!

 

[Tinknock50]

Beautiful day in Ketchikan with the Noordam and Oosterdam!

 

opps the Oosterdam is leaving!
