And you know what...he did not... look... happy.

There was a guy at my gym who used to go into the sauna wrapped in saran wrap covered by a nylon tracksuit!

Any LGBTQ sailors on this sailing? Howard

Yes....the showers have this "feature" that allows you to "steam"....alone in a tiny shower.

Well Yay! And it looks quite like Adventure of the Seas....which had very nice new shower fittings.

Okay.....is Liberty of the Seas info on the sheet still up to date? Free and not co-ed... Has anyone been on her this 2022 season? I am looking at May of 2023....no dry dock scheduled.... Howard

See this thread from this month...indicates you can only for 2 hour slots now. Howard https://boards.cruisecritic.com/topic/2885009-qm2-thermal-suite/

Darn.... Thanks for the info! In addition....you can only go the spa for 2 hours a day....and you have to reserve it? I don't know when I am going to events and things....how would one reserve prior to getting the daily schedule? Hmmm... Oh well....

So if the spa passes are all booked....Are there showers at the gym or any steam or sauna available elsewhere? Howard

Does anyone have information about the steam and sauna on the QM 2? Nothing is listed on the spread sheet. I know there is Canyon Ranch Spa....but what about free? Howard

Care to chat in email?

Is the thermal suite on the Dawn like the Jewel class shops where it is a central coed area and then separate men's and women's areas on the right and left? I liked that a lot on the Gem.

Yes!!!! Now I remember that! Thank you for jogging my memory. I sailed on her after the extension and could not figure out why I didn't remember the steam and sauna. Yes...."Steam Showers".

Well....poo! Did Enchantment get a "Thermal Spa"?

Hey guys! What's the scoop on Enchantment of the Seas Royal Caribbean? The excel sheet has "Yes" Free Entry to steam and a "No" Free Entry for the sauna....yet there are notes about the sauna....Hmmm? Howard

Any gaysters sailing out of NYC on the Carnival Magic on September 5th 2022?

Nope...no signs or guidance at all....it was fairly quiet....but not empty for sure.

They said they have not been giving out keys since they started the re-sailing after covid...That was it... Howard

Just updated the google sheet for ADVENTURE OF THE SEAS. Steam and Sauna are STILL FREE. Got off the ship today and enjoyed a full cruise of steaming and sautéing! They were not giving out locker keys however...one left your bathing suit and shoes, etc...by the benches. Howard

It is there under "For Cruises Leaving Vancouver" , but I didn't read that because I am not.

Tis true....but you'd think they'd mention it as it is covid related....and as we have heard there have been delays in embarkation due to this required "app" that people don't have when they arrive at the port. But I know Now!!!

Thanks for the link....but that says for cruises "Departing from Vancouver"....I am departing from New York with one stop in Halifax and back to New York. So that section is not applicable to my cruise. If it said "Cruises leaving the USA and stopping in Canada" then I would have read it! FOR ROUND-TRIP CRUISES DEPARTING FROM U.S. HOMEPORTS This sections says nothing about going to Canada....

I'm sailing on Royal on May 31st...when were they going to tell us abou this??? If I was not on cruisecritic I would have NEVER heard about this!
