Hey there, my family and I are booked on the Encore for this December. Second time in the Haven Family Villa...woohoo! I'm curious, a lot of the mega ships seem to be leaving Miami in 2020, anyone know the reason?

Eastbound transatlantics are repositioning in the spring and westbound happen in Oct & Nov.

I was thinking the same thing..... I dont think its just typical summer repositioning...  Joy/Bliss in Alaska/Mexico. Encore in NY. Escape in Europe/Orlando.....  Just leaves the Breakaway....??  seems odd?

Strange... the glass is now up along the squared-off speedway ledge.  Maybe it is straight the whole way across, unlike the renderings.

Can't remember how I found it but I watched the last RC float out on live stream.

[CazV]

I watched the live stream of Bliss float out last year. I probably got the link to it on Cruise Critic or FB.

NDR announced a live stream here. And you can watch it on the Meyer Werft website too (the camera is only online when there is a live stream).
