Norwegian Getaway Departs Meyer Werft

Norwegian Getaway departed Meyer Werft in Papenburg early this morning (November 15, 2015) at about 1am (local time) amidst cold and fog, causing the ship to quickly become invisible. The fog persisted through its entire river conveyance, sometimes making it impossible to see the ship from the shore.
