fathercop Posted June 14, 2014 #1 Share Posted June 14, 2014 (edited) The Captain made an announcement that the Caribbean Princess will be arriving in Fort Lauderdale at 1AM in order to commence some minor repairs. Currently, there have been no other announcements. I do not know what those repairs are related to, but there have been a couple of elevators out the whole week. I met someone who said that they were on one of the elevators for this week's cruise, I think it was our 1st day on board, and they got stuck for about 10 minutes. That elevator has been out the entire week. If I get more information, I will post it, since we are on the ship for this upcoming week, too.

ggprincess2004 Posted June 14, 2014 #3 Share Posted June 14, 2014 I will be interested in learning what they are doing in the way of repairs yet again. She came into port the other week at 1 am with after engine room/engine issues that had divers in the water working on her. We board on Aug 2 and would love it if she was ship shape for our 2 weeks on board, not to mention for all those cruising those boarding tomorrow and in the coming weeks!

It was just I believe last week she came into port at 1am after leaving like around midnight to start the cruise. I am on in a week. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Kind of sad since she just came out of dry dock. Yep I know only certain things were done but still.....:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare azbirdmom Posted June 14, 2014 #6 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Yes, we were on the cruise that arrived at 1 AM two weeks ago. Hopefully they can fix the problems once and for all and eliminate the disruptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

custompcsys Posted June 14, 2014 #8 Share Posted June 14, 2014 I will be interested in learning what they are doing in the way of repairs yet again. She came into port the other week at 1 am with after engine room/engine issues that had divers in the water working on her. The issue last time was a bow thruster, not the main engines. Her departure was delayed about 8 hours, but there was no change to the itinerary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
queensquared Posted June 14, 2014 #9 Share Posted June 14, 2014 We are waiting to disembark. Two Elevators not working all week, plus the ship was very warm, especially in Horizon Court and our cabin D502. Too bad, since the cruise was fun. They really need to fix these problems.

mkerner Posted June 14, 2014 #10 Share Posted June 14, 2014 We get on in one week. Sure hope all is fixed by then. I intend to have a great cruise in spite of any minor issues. It's all about the attitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
browneyedwoman Posted June 14, 2014 #11 Share Posted June 14, 2014 I hope they get them fixed. Some people can't climb steps as an alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmalino Posted June 15, 2014 #17 Share Posted June 15, 2014 We also just got off the CB and we had issues with our head the entire week. It flushed inconsistently(anywhere from immediately to after a two hour wait). Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I object 2 Posted June 16, 2014 #21 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Rich and Diana: it was nice to meet you last week on the Caribbean Princess. We landed in Omaha Saturday evening and decided to book a hotel room for the night. Glad we did. We would have driven into a nasty storm with 70 mile an hour winds and 3 inches of rain. :eek: Enjoy the last week of your cruise!
