TommyC Posted October 16, 2018 #1 Share Posted October 16, 2018 We're currently reserved on the Marina for the 10/6/19 cruise from Monte to Carlo to Athens. Some information that I've seen, as well as the 10-day hole in the Marina's schedule, seem to confirm that she will be going into drydock. Should I expect anything that might suggest that I not take the cruise in 2019? I've seen comments and discussions on other boards about preliminary drydock work during the last cruise as well as certain foods being unavailable, noise, grinding, etc. Any thoughts or comments would be appreciated. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeniEncinitas Posted October 17, 2018 #3 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Tommyc I have never had a problem in the past! This is Oceania not Carnival and it is only my opinion. Others might chime in with concerns! You sure it is a dry dock and not a private charter? Denise😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sitraveler Posted October 17, 2018 #4 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I was on Marina before drydock. Other than being off the ship particularly fast, no other changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyC Posted October 17, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Overnight, I received an email from my TA who advised that Marina has been chartered from 10/6/19. So all is OK. No drydock at that time. Phew! Thanks to all for their responses! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, does that mean that those of us who are booked on this cruise are about to have our cruise cancelled? Thanks......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is on the 10/6 cruise but there is a 10 day break in the schedule from 10/18 to 10/28, in which he thought might be for a dry dock. That time frame is actually a charter. So your cruise on 10/6, as well as TommyC's is just fine and it will not be the last cruise prior to a dry dock. Just a normal cruise before a charter cruise.

TommyC Posted October 18, 2018 Author #9 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Really sorry - the 10/6/2019 cruise from Monte Carlo to Athens is fine. It is the 10/18/2019 cruise from Athens that has been chartered. Sorry for the confusion..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
