podgeandrodge Posted February 10 #1 Share Posted February 10 So, the Norwegian Joy is in dry dock in Rotterdam, sailing on the TA back to Miami on Tuesday 13th Feb. It sailed from Miami about 3 weeks ago I think. Where do all the staff/musicians/etc. etc. go for that 3 weeks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare 1025cruise Posted February 10 #2 Share Posted February 10 Most of the crew will remain on board to service the people working on the ship. Most of these people live on the ship during this time. Though, there will be an opportunity for them to get a break. The entertainment staff will probably head elsewhere, or just get some time off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare shof515 Posted February 10 #3 Share Posted February 10 (edited) there is a common phase that many hands make light work food service people will still be cooking and preparing meals for the ship yard people and contractors doing work housekeeping will most likely help out with basic manual tasks like move a thing from a to b or help unbox things that come onboard some will be assigned a fire watch task where you stand with a fire extinguisher to make sure fire does not start. Check out chris wong youtube videos about this. Edited February 10 by shof515 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesea777 Posted February 10 #4 Share Posted February 10 Currently Joy should be wet within the next two days so she can head to Southampton for the Feb 13 TA cruise to Miami. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
podgeandrodge Posted February 11 Author #5 Share Posted February 11 (edited) Ahh, forgot about the webcam, might catch it leaving soon! I see right now there are ropes attached to the bow that weren't there yesterday. Edited February 11 by podgeandrodge 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barb Nahoumi Posted February 11 #9 Share Posted February 11 I know that major changes to the Observation Lounge were made. Hopefully, they didn't ruin it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, they cut the size. I don't know if that qualifies as ruining it...but it sure doesn't improve it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiwi Posted February 12 #14 Share Posted February 12 I read that the thermal spa was not completed. Will they continue to work on it or will it have to go into another dry dock to complete? Sailing on the Joy in June and that was a big reason I picked that ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are going for spring break, and I can see the option to book the Thermal Spa on their website, but when I try to add it to the cart, it throws an error. Seems to confirm what you heard.

dexddd Posted February 13 #16 Share Posted February 13 Our only point of reference is POA after drydock and spa was going to be worked on for 30-45 days after drydock. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
