Another question please? :)

 

What time do you think muster drill will be with 8:00 sail away? 7:15? How do you work a 6:30 dinner around it? :confused:

 

Thanks for all the help!

 

In our experience it was at 5:15 pm even with an 11pm sailaway

Agree. Although it always amazes me how many people just "waltz" in at at 5:25 as if they had more important things to do and the rest of us could just sit there and wait for them to finally show up. :(

Thus the drill never starts on time but there will be enough time to make even an early dinner.

YUP

Should have been on our HAL cruise

we stood outside for 1 hr because people did not show up & when they did never shut up so you could hear the instructions

 

They will be the ones pushing others out of the lifeboat in a real emergency

Ok...you might have to cut us idiots some slack that think the drills are run like the old parochial school drills when we were kids. It took us four cruises to figure out that they didn't want us to wait until the actual alarm sounded. We actually would go to our cabin, wait for the sound and then proceed to muster. :eek:

What is the best cabin location on deck 9?

 

Best is subjective

we were near the aft elevators & have been between the elevator banks no problem with either location

Most of the cabins are the same ;)
