Son of Anarchy Posted May 31, 2020 #654 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Little bit turning and now heading back. Currently pointing more towards Rotterdam than Bremerhaven, but plenty of time to change course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saab4444 Posted June 1, 2020 #660 Share Posted June 1, 2020 The plan has always been that they do some sea trials and thereafter arrive in Rotterdam on June 2 for a short dry docking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majortom10 Posted June 1, 2020 #661 Share Posted June 1, 2020 I presume after the sea trials are completed and she gets to Rotterdam they will dry dock her and check to see if there is any long lasting damage to the bow thrusters and if there is they will repair them.

If so they will need to book some entertainment and perhaps a guest speaker. Someone who may be available at the begining of October.😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about a grand launch at the beginning of December, once the other ships have resumed cruising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think P&O will want to gather as much publicity as they can from a restart of cruising, and what better way than to have a new ship as one of the first. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have a very good point! "Iona launches our brand into the new era of cruising!" or some other kind of marketing wizardry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canaries perhaps, but 3 days each way before any sunshine doesn't excite either. Probably give it a miss til next year. Caribbean ????😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
