Alpha Bravo code together?

Has anyone heard of these two codes being used together? Someone on the Oasis right now said they heard an "Alpha Bravo" page.

Maybe fire and medical at the same time?

Never heard that combo before. Maybe it was a crew drill?

Yeah that's all I could think of as well.

I thought bravo was man overboard? no?

Never mind, thats oscar oscar oscar. I remember hearing that on the Indy in St Kitts when the dock workers boat capsized and the Indy sent out its rescue boats.

Bravo is code for fire. Oscar is code for man overboard.

If this is standard maritime signaling, these are unrelated. Alpha = Diver In the Water, Bravo = Carrying Explosives

We were typing at the same time :)

These are the codes used by Royal Caribbean and some other cruise lines. They are different from the standard maritime signaling.

Oscar is overboard

I believe that alpha is single medical emergency

It is.

Oh, well, that seems somewhat strange!

As I understand these things it means "Out of Jack Daniels at the Solarium Bar".:eek:

Sorry could not help my self.

Not really. These aren't maritime signals in the sense of signal flags and the like but announcements over the ship's intercom/PA system so that the crew can more quickly respond to situations (and likely also to do so without causing undue alarm to the pax onboard).

Speaking of "Oscar"....

Here is "Oscar" in the water during a drill in Labadee. It only took them about 15-20 min. to "rescue" him. Was interesting watching them. Till they got to "Oscar", he had floated a quarter way around the ship.:eek:

No, that's Jacque, Jacque, Jacque.

In such an emergency I would be "man overboard".

If I was on fire, I'd jump overboard! Maybe that's what happened!

Someone was smoking on their balcony, started a fire, and the non smoker next to them couldn't breathe.

It's still odd that they would not follow standard maritime signal codes. I mean, it's a ship after all! And it seems some do follow the standard codes - like Oscar Man Overboard.
