Siobhanl Posted June 20, 2017 #1 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Hi, Just wondering if anyone who did the mini cruise to Hamburg early June can tell me if there is nice scenery on approach to Hamburg. Ship is meant to dock at 8am so really want to know if it's worth getting up very early to see scenery etc and if so how early? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Huntingdon1701 Posted June 20, 2017 #2 Share Posted June 20, 2017 It's okay, although as you get closer some of it is more the industrial port and not so scenic. I wouldn't personally get out of bed for it. The departure from Southampton is a better view, in my opinion. I stayed in the Spa (otherwise empty) and enjoyed the view straight over the bow, lit by the sunset. Surprisingly impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steff79 Posted June 20, 2017 #3 Share Posted June 20, 2017 here is a video, different way, from hamburg ( cruise terminal altona ) to Cuxhaven. Blankenese ( 4:28min ) ist great and i like the hamburg port. Not on the Jade but with Aida Prima to hamburg back two month ago. We were at midnight at cuxhafen, here beginns the river elbe. the lotse came here on board. from cuxhafen to hamburg the ship needs about 4-5 hours. Aida Prima was earlier in hamburg. with daylight the sailaway from hamburg is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satincruz Posted June 21, 2017 #4 Share Posted June 21, 2017 This is not to talk you out of it at all, b/c I found the approach to Hamburg surprisingly interesting. Not in person--but I've been watching the Jade's bow cam quite a lot lately (mostly for the fjords). Jade has been arriving early lately. On June 4th, Jade got to Hamburg around 6:30am. And on the 13th, it got there just after 6am. You can check the cam on the upcoming Hamburg mornings around 6am CET: https://www.ncl.com/sites/default/files/Norwegian_Jade_Summer_2017.pdf Or if you aren't awake/available to do that, you can also check this link, later on during the Hamburg days: https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/index/itineraries/all/shipid:368774/mmsi:308416000/shipname:NORWEGIAN%20JADE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye52241 Posted June 25, 2017 #5 Share Posted June 25, 2017 For those people who have been on the Jade in Hamburg, can I ask what time were you permitted to disembark? I am trying to figure out airport transfers for July 16. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
