wolfcathorse Posted August 5, 2021 #676 Share Posted August 5, 2021 OK, I'm back home now from a 13 day bus tour of the National Parks out west. Awesome. Today I think my Harmony TA in October got cancelled. That will mean I haven't cruised in 2 years. We did get invites to do test sailings but they happened while we were on our bus tour. Can't count it as a loss though, the Grand Canyon, Monument Valley, Zion, Bryce, Yellowstone, Grand Tetons, Route 66, Mt. Rushmore, Little Big Horn, and Crazy Horse were incredible. And in between we went to Deadwood, SD., Wall Drugs, and Carhenge. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's usually 10 weeks on/10 weeks off but the two captains can mutually agree to alterations -- I think two weeks earlier or later than 10 weeks.

Miamia65 Posted August 23, 2021 #698 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Hi, Captain Charles Teige is onboard Wonder of the Seas for sea trials - 20 to 24 August. Based on previous ship builds, Captain Charles is usually the take out captain and the ship will be handed over in the near future. So we can expect that Captain Charles will remain onboard going forward. Information sourced from RCG trustworthy employee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I don't believe so, she started sea trials last Friday, after that we think she will be back in the shipyard for final fit out etc. Then head to China in the new year or maybe late December for a March 2022 commencement of sailings from Shanghai. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
