Oasis class use 18 starlink modems versus the 8 on Radiance class. That’s an aggregate of over 5Gbps of throughout. Where I work we routinely have over 10,000 wireless clients that don’t consume that much bandwidth. Plus we have a lot more streaming occurring. They can handle it. -

…and yet older ships now blow newer ship out of the water, at least as internet goes. -

I distributed some of my excess chocolate acquisitions to some crew members. They were very appreciative. Should’ve acquired more. Many deserving crew on board. -

I may have become a little out of control in the chocolate factory, but I have another two weeks on board, so... -

Checking out that chocolate factory I saw earlier. It's close to the cruise terminal. Sugar free sections: All sorts of interesting chocolate shapes and sizes. Despite the cool temperatures some ice cream was in order. -

Taking the free shuttle to the gate of the cruise terminal. The cruise terminal: Walked the wrong way initially. Chocolate factory outlet near the cruise terminal. Information on the day pass for the transit system. There is a grocery store here where you can buy the pass and also any water or soda you wish. I didn't have a destination in mind, I just walked. A tribute to the Manitoba Dragoons. The area is largely industrial with a lot of trucking or transportation. Sidewalks were great for walking though, just not a lot to see. The light rail train. Eventually I made it to a residential area. This area is clearly a beach resort type town but given it's off season everything was closed. A Carnival ship arrived in port. Oh wait... At this point a light rain started and the clouds looked like it could become more than a light rain so I packed my good camera away, donned my rain coat and started making my way back. -

When I came back on board today a letter for consecutive cruisers was on my door. My allocated time to visit the theater and be checked in for my next cruise is 8:30am. I'm moving cabins but just down the hall. As it turns out my cabin attendant will be the same. He has advised me to leave everything that is in the closet on hangers as is and he will move swap the hangers between cabins. Everything else gets packed in my suitcase. -

I waited until we made it to a port to check this out. As near as I can tell only the two cabins forward of my cabin have the extra treatment on their balcony. Starboard balconies don’t appear to have any. On the port side only two have it. The cabin immediately forward of mine has a raised deck approximately 1cm high while the cabin forward of it has the teak like pattern painted on the surface without the raised bit. That leads me to think it was some sort of repair. -

The ship hasn't yet provided departure information for those leaving tomorrow. There are these notes in the cruise compass: -

Last night I noticed they added some excursions for today. Given this was a port recently added to the itinerary these were not offered initially. I haven't booked a ship excursion for today. -

Icon OTS-Passenger overboard and survived?
twangster replied to nelblu's topic in Royal Caribbean International
The fact that so many sites are including "world's largest cruise ship" automatically make them click bait. The size of the ship has no relevance to mental state of the passengers it carries. Large or small ship, an attempt to takes one's life is a larger concern compared to the size of the ship. -

Wave Benders are a man down. Something about one band member downstairs in medical and having to elevate a leg. They still sound pretty good. -
