I may wet my pants

Did you see this one:

This slides vid is awesome. At the 2:00 mark it shows the steps up to the top which are more steps than stairs so I may be capable to go: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=um3ssjj_7Ok

I'll try to get you a review of our room then....It's right back of the elevator bank..just steps away. It was the cheapest ADA I could get at the time, but it looks like a pretty good location now, we go up or down to nearly anything but the pools and I can walk that short a distance with patience. Also, I saw a video on the slides today and it showed the steps leading up to the top, they are surprisingly not steep at all so I think I'll be able to do some of those too. Woohoo. If anybody wants to see it at the 2:00 mark it shows the steps, more steps than stairs...like it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=um3ssjj_7Ok

For me and me only mind you! A waste of time and certainly of money...maybe if it were free like the zip line but no way $$.

My first stop in food is going to be Aquadome Market for some Chinese at GNGR! I am so excited about it.

I would love an ADA Interior, we have 10428 right at the elevators on deck 10,. wondering just how big it is.

I am amazed at how massive the elevator bays are, the circular area is humongous!

I am interested in seeing all the various pools up close and personal, the Cove, Cloud 17 and Hideaway in particular. Thanks for your time and including us, can't wait!

And I won't have to deal with them...I'll be having too much fun on this one.

We used to have this problem a few times which is why I don't use an agent anymore. . If you use an agent, then the next cruise is automatically connected onboard unless you expressly tell them you do not want that. They had a form they sent me to transfer from the agent back to RCCL Don't know if that is the case now. But it was never a problem, just a hassle. So now I'm my own agent. LOL

Yeah, since every critical observation you've made has nothing to back it up and you said you wouldn't even cruise her. LMAO

Just finished looking at Matt's pics of the Suite Neighborhood. It is most certainly not full of cheap furniture or deco. It's very modern and much bigger than Wonder's. It has a pool just not with glass nor loungers in the water like Wonders. Totally adequate and very well done.

Matt said on his dot com...and I quote...The 1772 sqft family suite costs over $80,000 and is SOLD OUT FOR ALL OF 2024!

Oops miscounted

I've heard it all before when Oasis came out...same criticisms, same claims of "I'll never sail that behemoth" Now 6 of them all sailing full, and a seventh now booking! All those naysayers are now sailing the ship they swore would break RCCL! Time will tell. I'll put my money on Icon.

Not really interested...............IYO

Again, beauty is always in the eye of the beholder: But the whole thing looks uninspiring, sterile, - hardily luxurious/exclusive. Perhaps it's the furniture, colors, textiles... something just isn't right. It almost looks like it was furnished with pieces from Target or Homegoods. To you maybe, not to me. It's subjective. I think it looks Fabulous! And I really don't care where they bought the stuff. And BTW, I have many pieces from Home Goods, one of my favorite shops.

🥴

Now then.....

I cruise because I want to be on a ship in the ocean. Not for perks. We are not wealthy by any means but we can afford it. I have always been happy with the product. Certainly nothing RCCL does with a swimming pool will change that.

Ships are measured by tonnage, she wins.

I would much rather have had Cloud 17 also, but they may still make changes and I'm not worried. I think the first few months of exit questionnaires will help them rethink things. I will certainly let them know my true sentiments. But the other features on this exceptional vessel are more than worth any disappointment I have about this latest development. I don't think Hideaway are is large enough to provide an adult only pool venue, but the bar and lounging areas are pretty appealing. That pool isn't any smaller than the average Oasis sister has in Solarium anyway.

Aquadome is a tradeoff for Surfside not a Solarium. The area behind Aquadome, the Overlook is more a tradeoff for Solarium, just no water, but then Harmony doesn't have that either.

Fortunately for you, there are lots of other ships....enjoy. We'll be on Icon thank you.
