Fantasy having mechanical issues

[crazy4wdw]

Just announced, ship is having mechanical issues and will not arrive at port until 10:00 am tomorrow. The ship has been stopped for about two hours.

Captain just announced on Fantasy that mechanical issue will probably put the Fantasy into Port Canaveral tomorrow at 10AM instead of 6AM.

Hopefully, no one has an early flight.

Did they forget to plug it in while it was in dry dock?

First trip after dry dock. That seems like a bad sign.

I hope this doesn't become several days stuck at sea.

Ship has finally started to move. They are saying it will be 11:00 am before anyone can disembark the ship. For people who are flying, this will delay their trip back along with delaying people boarding the ship for the next cruise.

Hopefully no one is put out, but this does emphasize why a later return flight is better.

Sounds like things have been pretty rough just coming out of dry dock. Reports of faulty AC, toilet issues, vibrations, and now whatever this mechanical mishap is.

Oh no we are on it tomorrow. Haven't received anything from DCL.

Reports of lots of issues during the cruise :/

I've heard that it's risky to go after dry dock, why is that??

The previous cruisers won't be disembarking until 11 (as of now). There is a good chance that your embarkment will be delayed.

Dry dock is when they refurbish the ship so its possible they can screw things up I guess!

There's a worker standing at the shipyard, staring at an extra bolt, thinking "#@!&, where was this supposed to go?"

lol! I do feel bad for the people on board, apparently theres been issues with AC and toilets the whole time as well as weird vibrating.

There was also a stop in Freeport for medical reason.

makes me rethink my flight time when we cruise next year but to fly back home into my city I think the only flight with west jet is 1230 hope it didnt cause to much stress for everyone onboard!

I would think that DCL will post something on their website or contact those on today's cruise. This blog is pretty good at getting updated information. http://disneycruiselineblog.com/201...eral-delayed-due-unexpected-mechanical-issue/
