Later---Although she is still showing on the Southampton movements it appears she will be calling at Le Havre instead from 06:30 until 13:00. A bit of bunkers to get her home?

I understand she finished her final cruise for Transocean Tours on Monday.
Premicon has not announced whether she is to sail directly to Bremerhaven or whether she will be laid up prior to entering dry-dock at Lloyd Werft. The only thing they said is that she is to arrive considerably earlier than originally planned. Her first cruise for Premicon-owned Transocean Kreuzfahrten is scheduled for June 1st, 2010.

word from Bremerhaven is that she was expected to arrive there tomorrow. Maybe it was decided to divert her to Le Havre in order to avoid the storm that has been battering the German coast of the North Sea.
Word is also that she will be laid up until April prior to entering dry-dock. Apparently, the drydocking will not be longer than originally scheduled, despite Transocean Tours' recent announcement claiming so.
"Astor" has now left Le Havre and is, according to her AIS signal, enroute to IJmuiden.
