baily Posted November 17, 2009 #1 Share Posted November 17, 2009 What's the latest on Ryndam refit, booked on 14 day cruise Jan. 24th., third date change by Hal. First was for Olivia charter, second for refit, third for Olympics charter. When will they have time for refit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JessWright Posted November 18, 2009 #2 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I just got off the Ryndam last Sunday morning after a 7-day cruise. I found out during my discussions with several waiters that the ship was scheduled for drydock in February. I was also told by a dining room manager that the ship would go into drydock about Feb. 9th for about 3 weeks. I was also on the Ryndam for a 10-day cruise in April. While the ship is about 15 years old, and shows some wear and tear, it is still fairly well maintained. I am eager to cruise on it again after it leaves drydock to see the changes.

Hopefully we will be informed of any changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mountainmare Posted November 22, 2009 #4 Share Posted November 22, 2009 OH NO!!! I thought there was one more cruise after ours on Jan 31. We were on the Oosterdam on her TA before her drydock--the last couple of days were trying to say the least (we were in a cabin that was going to be ripped out.) Oh well-- maybe this will be ok.

Mooguy Posted November 23, 2009 #5 Share Posted November 23, 2009 If you go to the HAL web sight and look at the deck plans for the Ryndam they have two different sets pre 2/7 and after 2/23 give or take a day on those dates. Has anyone looked at and compared the two and found any major changes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mountainmare Posted December 2, 2009 #9 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Thanks--(I think) If it hadn't beenm for our Oosterdam experience I wouldn't give it a second thought. I really thought there was a cruise after ours...I probably would not have booked this. Poor me poor me...when I think about the big picture I'll have to survive going to Florida for a few days in January (it is below freezing here right now), then I'll have to force myself to get on a cruise ship and sail to really neat ports and spend time looking at alot of pretty fish while I snorkel in warm tropical seas. Poor me poor me. Do you think I'll survive?(But I still would not have booked this one had I known). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IRL_Joanie Posted December 2, 2009 #10 Share Posted December 2, 2009 I have the deck plans and descriptions of each for both the Prior to 7 Feb and after 23 Feb Ryndam sailings. As far as I can see by just looking at the Stateroom deck plans, there are additional staterooms in various categories being added and stateroom number changes. Here is the Ryndam Stateroom Page to view the various Stateroom chenges. http://joanjett2000.topcities.com/HAL/Ryndam/index.html I have no idea what other changes are being made since I am only concerned with the Staterooms.

Waryman Posted February 15, 2010 #11 Share Posted February 15, 2010 I was on the Ryndam last May (2009) and it certainly needed an upgrade as many of the elevators were "out of service" Some for the entire cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aim1 Posted February 15, 2010 #12 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Ryndam's in Freeport now and will be arriving back in Tampa on the 25th February. I've not heard much from my other half who's working on the ship, but I believe the refit is going according to plan and on time etc. I know he's been feeling cold this time though!! :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
