ms Zuiderdam and ms Volendam in Port Everglades January 3, 2023

[leerathje]

OK, first time....Think I got this right!!

 

The MS Zuiderdam will be at pier 26 from 5:30 am to 5:00 pm.  It will be a long time until we see her and her passengers again in port, because she is leaving on the 128 day Grand World Voyage….the trip of a lifetime!

 

 

 

The lovely MS Volendam will be at pier 19 from 5:45am to 5:00pm.  She is leaving on a 74-Day Grand South America & Antarctica Voyage.  Don’t forget to say hello to the penguins!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

We have a full house in Port Everglades! Also in port are Regal Princess at pier 2 (4:45 am-4:00 pm), Celebrity Millennium at pier 18 (5:30 am-4:00 pm), and Celebrity Beyond at pier 25 from 6:00 am until 3:30 pm.

Thank you for covering the Sail Away thread.  One small correction, January the 4th is Wednesday.

Thanks. I’ll be on the Volendam. Was wondering who would sail away first, Volendam or Zuiderdam. 
hope that there are whistle salutes!

Hope to be there to see the start of 2 long voyages.

I am off work, so I will be able to see this sail away!  Thank you for doing the sail away while Kathi is away.

Considering Zuidy is stuck behind X Beyond - and leaving for the World Cruise - I would expect her to be an after dark departure. I'll be glad of an early one though.

 

Have fun - with your long itinerary, Volendam may be close to the same time though.

Thanks for the thread. One less thing for Kathi to even think about. 

 

Hope she gets answers soon.

Port Everglades shows Volendam arriving at 5:30 am, and the Zuiderdam at 5:45 am on the 3rd.

Zuiderdam about 15 miles out, Volendam is right in front of her.

[Crazy For Cats]

@leerathje thank you for filling in for @Scrapnana. If the departure times hold I’ll probably miss sail away since it’s an in office day for me today.  I’m hoping for a slight delay so I can watch.

[Crazy For Cats]

The Volendam looks good coming into port.

[ski ww]

Volendam arriving.

[ottahand7]

Watch for Nancy and John Vista suite Port 6206 at sail away on the Volendam.   We are on for the entire 74 days.  I will be waving my purple Ravens flag.  We are arriving now.  Pilot boat woke us at 5:20 off our Dolphin deck cabin. 

 

[ski ww]

Zuiderdam arriving.

[travelnap]

Both Zuide and Volendam are still scheduled for a 5 PM departure.

[Happily@Sea]

Schedule say Zuidy at 5 pm - NOT confirmed

 

Volendam is confirmed also 5 pm

 

X Beyond sitting in front of Zuidy confirmed for 3:30 pm - she should be long gone before the BHBs 5 pm departures.

Good afternoon all,

I am now in a Zuiderdam balcony cabin on deck 5, about midway between the Outside Elevators and the bow.

I'll be sitting out there for the sail away.
