Maasdam Refurbished??

['The Bear']

I have been following the Veendam refurbishment thread, ------- and please excuse me if this has been asked before, but when is the Maasdam scheduled to have these Aft Pool, Wading Pool, More Cabins etc. changes made?

 

I'm trying to schedule my next Caribbean cruise (perhaps last??) on my very favourite ship, before this upgrade (??) is completed!

Thanks 'Camp..' , I knew I'd read about it somewhere, but I'd forgotten the details. I guess I'm not particularly rushed !! I wish I wasn't so resistant to 'dam' changes. ;)

Maasdam just had a week drydock after the first of the year so she got some freshening. The second SOE will be when she gets the major changes.

Actually the Rotterdam's first cruise is a one way from FLL to San Diego. It is leaving on 4 Jan out of San Diego for a 33 day Hawaii/South Pacific which we are taking.:D
