Let's say you're in cruise, and still some distance to go to the calculated top of descent (T/D) while flying in VNAV, then the ATC calls and instructs an early descent. Turning the knob to select a lower altitude is a signal to the VNAV to descend on its own when it reaches the T/D, but pressing the knob/button (depending on the model) commands that descent right away. MCP engineers, together with local agent VBS Italy, start site surveys in this month and expect total VSAT, cellular and equipment installation completed and in operation for the first vessels in October. Browse our selection of 2024, 2025 & 2026 cruise destinations below – and learn a little more about where we’re taking you on your next memory-making getaway.
