Am sailing on tne inaugural cruise on the Westerdam an April 25/04. Does
anyone have any opinions on inaugural cruises, are there problems with service or food or crew. Also heard there may have been a fire on the westerdam in October while under construction? |

The worst thing is that it could be postponed (we missed the Volendam's
inaugural). Keep in mind that it's a new crew and new ship and everyone (no matter how experienced they are) is making adjustments and getting their rhythm down. Candy -- hopes the new Westerdam will be as great as the old one Stephen M Coates wrote: Am sailing on tne inaugural cruise on the Westerdam an April 25/04.

Can't help you in the inaugural area. But, there was a fire on Westerdam which caused significant damage to the Lido and some smoke and water damage to the Navigation Deck below. All of that has been repaired. |

Fire while in the Fincantieri Shipyard Oct 17, 2003. A cabin in the aft
deck 7 caught fire and took 4 hours to put out, no injuries. Damage spread to decks 7 8 & 9 on the aft end. Claims that this will not effect the April 15 Delivery GDJ "Stephen M Coates" wrote in message news:MPG.1ad6653f805811f5989680@shawnews...

Does anyone have any opinions on inaugural cruises, are there problems with service or food or crew. Also heard there may have been a fire on the westerdam in October while under construction? We will be on the May 7th sailing on the Westerdam, Stephen. We were on the inaugural cruise of the Elation in March of 1998. It was our second cruise, so we were not really cognizant of its shortcomings, if there were any~~we did learn from that cruise to carefully choose our cabins from then on. We accepted outside cabin E-168, which was directly under the galley and we heard carts rolling, pots and pans falling and loud thumps until four in the morning! Not much fun trying to sleep for 15 days. We had graduated from a 7 day cruise to a 15 day one and were concerned that we chose too long of a cruise~~as it turned out, on the 14th night, we wished that we did not have to get off in Los Angeles and had opted for 16 days and gone all the way to San Francisco! So we must have enjoyed it. Have a great cruise! --Jean |
