Ships not blowing their horns

[nick262]

We have been watching the Wish sail out of PC and Nassau, the Magic out of Bermuda and the Fantasy out of PC the last couple of weeks on the webcams and we have not heard them blow their horns at any of these ports. I know when at PC dock we can hear it sometimes if the wind direction is right, but they have not been blowing it at Fishlips or when they leave Nassau/Bermuda. Does anyone know why?

Was on the Magic Oct 16-21. They would blow the horn at noon everyday on the Disney Magic to mark the noon time after the captain made his daily speech over the ships speakers. I did not notice it at any other time.

We were on the Wish about 3 weeks ago - they blew the horn several times throughout the cruise.

Thanks, I was not referring to during the cruise but as they are leaving the ports that I mentioned. Normally they blow the horn as they leave and they have not the past couple of weeks.

ETA: I am watching the Wish leave on the Nassau webcam right now and no horn.

I was on the Wish earlier this month (B2B) and the horns sounded when departing CC both times but not in Nassau both times. In my experience ships don't sound the horn when departing PC if the sail away party in held indoors (for whatever reason).
