ms Nieuw Amsterdam in Port Everglades December 30, 2022

[Scrapnana]

I am posting this early because there is the possibility that I will be unable to do it tomorrow.  Please bump up if necessary.

 

Nieuw Amsterdam will be at pier 26 (starboard to) from 5:30am to 3:00pm.  She is leaving on a 9-day Southern Caribbean Seafarer cruise.

 

 

 

Also in port are Celebrity Apex at pier 25 (6:00am-3:30pm), Liberty of the Seas at pier 19 (4:15am-4:30pm), and Odyssey of the Seas at pier 18 (4:45am-5pm).

 

The PTZtv webcam can be found at https://www.portevergladeswebcam.com/.

 

Next up:  Volendam and Zuiderdam on Tuesday, 3 January

Hopefully X Apex will leave on time. After no blockers for 2 days - it will be aggravating if X doesn't move on schedule - or close to it.

 

Thanks for the thread, Kathi.

I have a question - why are ships departing at 3PM now rather than 4 in previous years?

So I can watch them??? (Usually I start dinner prep at 4.) I know 3PM doesn't work as well for many here, but I appreciate it

Gerry, someone had asked this on an earlier sail away thread and was told that they were leaving at 3 because they could sail at a lower speed and save fuel.  I don't know if this is true or not, but that is what was told to us.

Nieuw Amsterdam is confirmed for 3:40 pm

 

X Apex is confirmed for 3:30 pm - hopefully, leaving on time.

Checking in.  Hopefully I don’t miss sail away.  I’ve been busy with other peoples customers.  I’m one of the few in my group working today.

The way they're going this afternoon, you've got time to go make some coffee, grab a sandwich, run a bath, take the cats for a walk . . . . . LOL

Looks like they're way behind schedule!

I finally am making a sailaway!  How exciting!

 

Since it has been so long, are both cams working or do we still only have the one view?
