Rare Lady Arwen Posted September 24, 2017 #3 Share Posted September 24, 2017 That really is not enough said. What was the issue? I have a friend who was on the sailing prior to this and they had a blast and loved Noordam, so I'm interested in your perspective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are comparing, they would be disappointed, I suspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crewsgirl Posted September 24, 2017 #8 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Can you tell us about the Noordam? I am looking at Australia on that ship and wondering about the condition. Would love to hear more please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old As Dirt Mom Posted September 24, 2017 #9 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Maybe this late in the Alaska season the seas were a little rocky? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AV8rix Posted September 24, 2017 #10 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Xenomorph infestation?:eek: Ewwww ! Hope there are none on my upcoming voyage on Eurodam -- or pray they've done a deep cleaning prior to my boarding. I've encountered those before (once at my MDR table) and don't care to do so again. BTW, that particular one was of a species native to Carnival who somehow managed to shimmy up our mooring lines despite the rat guards so the whole thing was really incomprehensible to me. Anyway, the DRM allowed me to change my assigned seating.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Himself Posted September 24, 2017 #13 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Noordam, last Alaska cruise South. Enough said. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk It is now Sunday and time to get off. Please explain the issues. I have been on this ship several times and always liked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted September 24, 2017 #14 Share Posted September 24, 2017 We have sailed on the Noordam quite a few times and never had any issues with her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shih-tzu Posted September 24, 2017 #15 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Maybe the red area explains it....gale warnings on west coast.... I just checked Environment Canada site for Marine weather. Won't let me post screen shot for some reason, but I suspect OP is in rough seas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilvertoGold Posted September 24, 2017 #16 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Last cruise of the season is always great for bargain hunters, as many shops have big sales. And you do get right into Johns Hopkins Glacier, not just to Jaw Point, but up close and personal. I vote for the rough seas, cold weather, wind and those xenomorph infestations.

No matter what ship you are on, the last cruise of the season is so much fun. Even better if there is rough weather, for me at least. I loved the really rough weather in Sept 2011 on Zuiderdam. Now THAT was fun!!!!!!! Joanie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had gorgeous weather until Ketchikan, and then a storm caught up to us. We were pitching like crazy! I went up to the Crows Nest to watch the bow go up and down. Got some great pictures! We had one of the aft corners and the drawers under the bed kept sliding out. (And no, I hadn't packed any duct tape! :eek:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sail7seas Posted September 24, 2017 #20 Share Posted September 24, 2017 I don't have a clue the point of this thread or what OP is not saying that might make it more clear. :shrug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Lady Arwen Posted September 24, 2017 #22 Share Posted September 24, 2017 This one gave me a Sunday morning chuckle. It didn't take long for people to come out of the woodwork into the light and start with the "I never had a problem with the Noordam" comments. OP: I hope the heavenly father waits until you reach port before getting you off the ship ;) Sorry the end is rocky... But, if they didn't have any problems on the Noordam why is it an issue to say so? Sorry, I just don't quite understand your comment. I thought we were here to discuss the bad and the good. The OP really hasn't given us anything to discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
