Figther Posted October 2, 2019 #2526 Share Posted October 2, 2019 33 minutes ago, CazV said: This morning's update from Meyer Werft... Good morning from eemshaven! Norwegian Encore has arrived in eemshaven, Netherlands this morning. Until Friday, further material and supplies will be brought on board and fuel bound. After the first sea test, the ship will reach bremerhaven on Tuesday, October 08. It looks like a beehive. Mutch stuff is carried aboard, I would like to walk to the Encore but she is protected by a wall of containers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayjaypea42 Posted October 2, 2019 #2527 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Sorry if this was already discussed, but does anyone know if NCL will offer any gaming packages? There seems to be a lot of VR stuff on this ship, and I'm sure there's a charge for all of it... I'd be down to buy a gaming package for any kids that may come with us...

It appears to be a lift for the rafts you ride down the slide on. Joy has one, but Bliss does not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suzanne, who cancelled this booking with you all because of this Laser Thing. I replaced it by the Bliss panama canal Nov 3, 2019, 21 days, very cheap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My parents are on her and It would be nice if they were! I don´t know the (time) schedule of the Getaway. The Encore will start the sea trials tomorrow and is expected in Bremerhaven on Tuesday in the morning. The sea trials will be in the North Sea up to the Skaggerak (top of Denmark up to Sweden). So depending on when the Getaway is leaving Copenhagen for NOLA there might be a slight chance. steamboats 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CazV Posted October 4, 2019 #2538 Share Posted October 4, 2019 Today, on the last day of the #NorwegianEncore's presence, the #havenmeester from Groningen Seaports Pieter van der Wal handed over the harbor shield to the captain. The reception was arranged by #BroekmanLogistics, the agency for this ship. Departure is scheduled for 6 p.m. today. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always loved the way he says that whenever he comes on the intercom. Edited October 4, 2019 by JamieLogical 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KAYKAY121 Posted October 4, 2019 #2542 Share Posted October 4, 2019 On 9/30/2019 at 4:34 PM, BirdTravels said: Probably not. Since the lifeboats are inboard, everything on Deck 7 (including the Manhattan Room) becomes narrower. Both the Bliss and Joy have replaced the dance floor and stage with tables. I just read that from a Bliss review. that the dance floor and they said Orchestra was no longer on the Bliss. I am assuming the same on the Encore so we have booked specialty restaurants this time.

SailBreakaway Posted October 5, 2019 #2544 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Royal has a new commercial on TV I just saw, and had to share, as I got a kick out of it.... Starts out and says in Big letters on the screen: "LESS VIRTUAL ..MORE REALITY" HA! I Love it, good for you RCCL!! Perhaps someone there in marketing is smart enough to monitor this thread, heck I WOULD and run with it. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckeye rob Posted October 6, 2019 #2548 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Sorry if this has been brought up but I’m not reading 103 pages. On Escape in the aft Haven Penthouse Suites certain decks had the bed by balcony ior bath by balcony. Does this hold true for these latest ships such as Encore. We preferred the darker bedroom, bath by balcony and always booked deck 11 on Escape. Similar setup on Encore and which decks are which ? Deck plans aren’t correct . Regards Gerry.

No but a lot of the cast for the shows are already on the ship - I just search instagram for the #norwegianencore and have been seeing a lot of the performers posting about being on the ship. I'll let you know if I see anything. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
