Fireworks77 Posted May 1, 2020 #1 Share Posted May 1, 2020 Does anyone know when this video may have been taken. Im confused because I thought the last Cruise ships disembarked paying guests about 2 weeks ago. This video shows people on passenger balconies. They do not appear to be crew as i noticed a couple of kids on deck as well. please advise. Im very interested https://youtu.be/Ks6w39ZXNOA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuedon Posted May 1, 2020 #2 Share Posted May 1, 2020 (edited) I see no reason to dispute it the date mentioned on the video: PTZ's 'thing' is scenic livecams, of which ship arrivals and departures are included, and, checking ship trackers, the CP was in FLL on the 27th as an unscheduled (pre-COVID) stop. The ~6:30PM time of arrival seems to match the ambient light as sunset wouldn't've been for about another hour twenty. Edit: As to why there seems to be passengers on it... no idea.

And, I think Coral is going to Phillipines. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Caribbean seems to have South American crew aboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigGuy25 Posted May 1, 2020 #6 Share Posted May 1, 2020 I’m not sure. But, I’ve seen several crew videos where they’re now wearing their civilian clothing onboard. And, to “social distance,” I wouldn’t be surprised (since the ships have none or very few passengers) that they’ve moved crew to some of the passenger cabins. So, it could be crew on the balconies.

satxdiver Posted May 1, 2020 #7 Share Posted May 1, 2020 They have moved crew who no longer have duties to pax cabins to help with the distancing required by the pandemic. Since they are not working, they can wear whatever they want. Princess has been consolidating crew according to their country of origin and taking them home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger88 Posted May 1, 2020 #9 Share Posted May 1, 2020 The video is very weird indeed. Especially I am surprised they had flags on board. Whats the point? I also surprised about the date. I heard all the ships have already arrived to their mother ports and await the start of future operation. Also the ship looks quite deserted. I thought there will be plenty of people on board. In any case I hope everyone is doing alright. I am glad they are back home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite all the posts that mentioned the "CP", I never bothered to check., I learned something today, so I guess I can now take a nap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People often refer to Caribbean Princess as CP but it’s designation is CB.I believe Coral is CO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess has re-used past abbreviations. If you look on the Princess site and click on a ship you will find the proper abbreviation as part of the URL. For reference: Princess Ship Abbreviations CB - Caribbean Princess CO - Coral Princess KP - Crown Princess DP - Dawn Princess DI - Diamond Princess XP - Discovery Princess EP - Emerald Princess EX - Enchanted Princess NP - Golden Princess AP - Grand Princess IP - Island Princess GP - Regal Princess RP - Royal Princess RU - Ruby Princess SA - Sapphire Princess CP - Sea Princess TP - Star Princess SP - Sun Princess MJ – Majestic Princess YP – Sky Princess PA - Pacific Princess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
