Noordam Dry Dock

Once the Noordam goes through drydock only the S&R class ships, and the 2 Pinnacle ships will allow smoking in the casino.

That's more than half the fleet where non-smokers may have a difficult time in the Casino. With a 3rd Pinnacle ship in the works, the number will be 60% of the fleet where smoking is allowed in the Casino.

all of the Vistas and Signature Class ships will be 100% non-smoking in all indoor areas.

Smokers, then, will be without any place to smoke when the outside decks are closed. 

An Oak Room, enclosed smoking room, preferably with adequate ventilation to the outside, gives everyone something.

Does anyone have an update on Noordam's dry dock? Is she back to service?

A few more photos from the Seaspan Shipyards Facebook page.  Wish someone was posting more internal ones but guess we'll just have to be surprised this Sunday. 🙂

Hope you'll have your camera ready! Very interested to see if they moved the Explorations Cafe/Library

They did not... Crow’s Nest is intact.  👍 Unfortunately Northern Nights did not get replaced with the Gallery Bar.  👎
