How to find family currently on a ship

[Born4Travel]

My inlaws just went on a cruise to the Mediterranean and we wanted to find out where there are each day so the kids can follow along. I know they got on the ship oct 25th and are on the ms Rotterdam. Does anyone have suggestions to find out what day they will be in what ports? Or better yet where theya are in current time. (Fun but probably not practical.)

 

Thanks so much for your help.:D

You can go to cruisett.com.

Here is a website that you can use to track the ship and if you check these boards each day --LaffNVegas usually posts where all the ships are!

The problem with that site is that it is "voluntary reporting" and is frequently not current. For example, the Zuiderdam has not reported for two days, nor the Veendam for today.

 

I sent that URL to relatives so that they could track us through the Panama Canal, and it just showed us frozen in the Caribbean for 12 days! :)

Sail, I see that is what the HAL 2008 Cruise Planner says, but cruisett.com has several differences:

25th Piraeus

26th Kusadasi

27th at sea

28th Messina

29th Civitivecchia

30th Monte Carlo

31st Barcelona

1st at sea

2nd Gibraltar

3rd Cadice

4th Lisbon

 

Since the Cruise Planner was printed so long ago, I tend to think that cruisett.com is probably correct.

I took that list from the HAL brochure.

Even if this isn't quite the correct route it is great for what we are trying to do. (Keep track of Grandma and Grandpa) If they did go to different cities they will just have to tell us about it when they get home.

 

Thanks again to everyone for the help.

You guys are the GREATEST!:D
