We have Symphony for next Nov but Harmony for March and Navigator somewhere in between. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same for Symphony. Are they going to take her down to the turn basis this evening, turn her around, and dock again starboard side? If so, does anyone know why they did not do that before docking?

I use cruisecal.com to look up ship itineraries. The Oasis class ships are moving around over the next year. Now: Oasis in Port Canaveral Allure in Miami Harmony in Port Everglades Symphony in Miami ( as of this Friday) As of May 5, 2019: Oasis to Europe and dry dock Allure to Port Everglades Harmony to Port Canaveral Symphony in Miami November 2019 through mid April 2020; Oasis to Miami Allure in Port Everglades Harmony in Port Canaveral Symphony in Miami When the 2020-2021 itineraries are released later this year, we will see if they move around again. I would expect it when Allure goes to drydock in summer 2020. mac_tc Edited November 4, 2018 by mac_tlc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I need to find out when Captain Johnny will be on the Harmony. He got back today and a 10 or 11 week off schedule so hard to figure out. Thank you. (we plan on the Harmony in March depending on daughters work travel also). Edited November 4, 2018 by vettprincess more info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when the new Sovereign was largest thing in Miami, 30yrs ago nothing else was even close at the time of "The Love Boat" size ships. Back before that Miami would have up to 10 cruise ships in Port same day but they didn't hold a 1/4 passengers they do now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same for Symphony. check a chart .... the downtown turning basin is 100 feet larger in diameter than the Fisher Island one .... Fisher is 1500 feet, downtown aka "main" is 1600 you may be confused cuz the area can APPEAR larger when you don't take water depth into account. I was Captain of the 'big cutter' at the CG base there 97 to 99 ... parking place was just northwest of the Fisher basin Edited November 4, 2018 by Capt_BJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamond Dandy Posted November 4, 2018 #48 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Would it have been possible to sail the cruise that ended yesterday, then stay on board to take the first one out of Miami? No problem getting a deck chair I bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

potatotomato Posted November 4, 2018 #50 Share Posted November 4, 2018 So how long did it take to get from FLL to Miami? Curious because I am boarding Allure May 5 when she returns toFLL after dropping off passengers in Miami. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
