I noticed that no cruises for Sky Wonder are listed on the Pullmantur website for 2009. In fact the last cruise departs on November 2, 2008. Does anyone know what Pullmantur plans to do with the ship in 2009?

Following this charter, she is scheduled to arrive in Curacao for wet-docking on 27 March, will dead-head to Acapulco on 30 April, arriving on 12 May and begin her new year round service to the Mexican Riviera on 17 May.
