Nieuw Amsterdam, Zaandam and Eurodam in Port Everglades on March 16, 2024

[leerathje]

Well, this will be an interesting sailaway….6 ships in port, with 3 scheduled for 3:00 pm, and 2 scheduled for 3:30.  I wonder how it’s really going to work out for sailaway times???

 

ms Nieuw Amsterdam will be at pier 26 from 4:15 am to 3:00 pm, and she is on a 7 Night Eastern Caribbean, ms Zaandam will be at pier 19 from 5:30 am to 3:00 pm, and she is on a 14 Night Panama Canal, and ms Eurodam will be at pier 21 from 6:00 am to 3:00 pm and she is on an 11 Night Eastern Caribbean Wayfarer

 

 

 

 

Also in port is Celebrity Reflection at pier 29 (4:30 am – 3:30 pm). Odyssey of the Seas at pier 18 (5:15 am – 5:00 pm), and Celebrity Apex at pier 25 (6:00 am – 3:30 pm).

Yes, this will be an interesting sailaway. Hope to be here and toes crossed we get some toots from the HA ships. 🚢

NA can't leave before X Apex - so no 3 pm. Zaandam is at pier 19 but even with her small size she may still be boxed-in. Eurodam at pier 21 just needs to be ready - If she leaves at 3 pm Zaandam can follow soon after. That takes care of our 3 BHBs listed for 3 pm. The rest can fight out 3:30. 

 

At least no Sky Pr who always leaves late and seemingly just when Apex is ready to back out. 😞

 

X Reflection won't leave before NA [whom she is sitting behind] who is behind Apex.

 

Hopefully, once they do start; we have a parade.

Looks like I got here too late for sail in. It's going to be a busy sail away. Thanks for the pictures.

Can they sail three wide through the channel?  That would be fun watch as they would be able to shake hands with Redneck Bob without leaving their respective ships.  I have a feeling that things will change closer to sailing time for all the ships.  Hope to be here for sailaway.

Dang, I won't be here to wave at the 3 BHB's; we're heading out for brunch for 1PM (we're 2 hours behind FLL), so will miss the excitement.  Safe travels to all!

[Scrapnana]

It's a busy day here in FLL.  We arrived at the hotel around 1030 and there had to be at least 100 people waiting around to leave for the ships. If my walking wasn't so bad I'd go stand on the bridge and watch the sail-away but instead I think I'll be down at the pool.

I hope I am here for the Sail Away

You mean "the stand outside at the lifeboats for training and announcements" method?

Yes, they say once a year they must do this.

And this lucky cruise drew the short straw. Too bad.

If I heard the announcement correctly Eurodam will drop lines at 3:15.
