Err...that was shown on our cruise🤣

Today (port day) nothing listed. Some evenings there are hosted get togethers in the astern lounge around seven p.m.

Correct. Fully booked and no joy on waitlist requests.

Not sure. Gymfreak had found out there were 580 leaving Barbados on 19th Jan and 750 on the next cruise but I'm not sure if that was classed as from San Juan or from Bridgetown where we disembark next week.Whichever, plenty of space onboard, the only restriction is a clamp on marble/sakura bookings to the one per cruise. Emporium works for breakfast and lunch without any noticeable queues. Plenty of tables and I have never seen it approaching full. We generally eat around 730 and always get table at FR or MYC without waiting. Hope this helps

That's correct. Dials with various temps/times that you select

Photos from D12 port side at 1130 today. Starboard pretty much full sun. As you can see there is shade although you may need to move "with the sun" if you catch my drift

Hi, I'm on at the present with a shade lover who has not had any difficulty. There are some cabana like structures on D12 that can provide some shade and they have been able to move a bed around to a shadier spot. Tbh it is generally only an issue at the height of the day. I will try to get some pics to post later today if that helps

Btw there are 2 self service launderettes, one on D9 and one on D10. Both have two washers two dryers and detergent. We have found them fine. No need to pay for laundry

Second the wine comments. I ordered a white wine off the list. First got a random white which was returned. Last night a random red appeared!

Hi everyone Quick query ahead of our 'journey' ( not a cruise, obviously per exploraspeak 🤣) in a week' s time. Can anyone tell me what products are used in the bathroom; basically do I need to bring my own shampoo etc. Also I note suites have dyson hairdryers but do they come with attachments or again should I bring mine with me (Sorry if this sounds vain but sea air + curly hair equals frizz!!) TIA

Mine is a mustard allergy. Makes my lips and eyes swell like Kim kardashian and tyson fury respectivelyso at least desserts should be safe

Hi, this post is a little worrying for me. My booking was made 14 months ago when the dining options offered in the brochure were more extensive than offered now and apparently in practice. I have a food allergy which has never proven to be an issue when travelling with non 'premium' lines such as celebrity, princess etc; I have simply placed an order the previous day. Are explora seriously suggesting they will make no exceptions in these circumstances, particularly for a menu that is not going to change for the entirety of our 12 night cruise? Karen
