I don't mind skipping PC but our son and DIL would be upset if we didn't arrive in Nassau by early afternoon as they have snorkeling plans. Hopefully they have issue fixed soon.

Toddcan Posted March 8, 2023 #33 Share Posted March 8, 2023 We're on the this Sunday's sailing (March 12). The good thing about this itinerary is that even if PC is delayed/eliminated, Nassau and CocoCay are in very close proximity, and should have less of a delay. Nassau to CocoCay is 60 miles away. Even at 15 knots (17 mph), it will take less than 4 hours to make that leg. The leg from PC to Nassau is about 300 miles, so Nassau could be delayed. For us, missing PC and being late for Nassau is an irritation at best. I'll just sit on my balcony relaxing more. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Hudson Posted March 8, 2023 #34 Share Posted March 8, 2023 Hope the passengers on Anthem are taking this well. I always say that ships are machines and sometimes machines break down. I am on the March 12th trip so am hoping all goes well with repairs. Have to be able to use all my green for the 17th!! Katherine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting we are on the Anthem on the 19th, same itinerary and the Anthem is due to arrive at Nassau at 12pm on our cruise , hence my question. Been that way for months. Did you post originally to show that they have “caught up” and are now back to the original planned itinerary times on the current cruise, despite the propulsion issues ?

If they are showing a delay, yet making 18 knots, there is still a power generation problem, as the Gulf Stream should be adding 2-5 knots to the ship's speed, so if she was at full speed, she should be doing 20-21 knots.

So either they don't know about a delay or they don't want me to know because I'm watching their dog 🤣 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
