longislandblue Posted October 3, 2015 #1 Share Posted October 3, 2015 My family is on the Royal Princess that left out of Florida on Oct. 1, 2015 They were scheduled to go to Princess Cays on the first leg of their journey but were informed because of Hurricane Joaquin that they would go straight to St Thomas first. For two days I've been watching the bridge cam and it still says it's on it's way there. I am wondering how long it takes to get there or maybe if they are staying out to sea a bit longer to avoid the hurricane affected area. I am unfamiliar with journey now. Has anyone heard anything from anyone on the ship or is there anyone posting from the ship? Its a 10 cruise so its a very long time for me to be able to hear back from my family. I'm sure they are all ok and having a blast, but sitting here at home on the east coast, in the driving rain, I can't help but worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cattolica Posted October 3, 2015 #2 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Princess Cays was replaced by a sea day according to everything I have read. The Royal is scheduled to arrive in St. Thomas tomorrow as scheduled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishywood Posted October 3, 2015 #3 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Forget about the bridge cam. The head office simply forgot to reset the destination and that is what has you in a tizzy? I'm sure all the different marine tracker websites will show that the Captain safely steered the ship away from the hurricane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Essiesmom Posted October 3, 2015 #6 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Go to the Marine Traffic website, and click on the Vessels button on the menu bar. They type in Royal Princess and select the proper ship. It will show you the last position report. EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

longislandblue Posted October 6, 2015 Author #10 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Thank you everyone, I found the marine tracker, with all of your help, and am able to watch it move along safely. I also was able to check out the pictures of the ship. I couldn't believe how tall it is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
