welovecruzin Posted January 9, 2010 #1 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I did not read it on boards but was told by friend that it is very cold in the dining room and in the shows because of a/c. Anyone care to comment. We will be on Navigator of Seas end of January. Trying to get clothing together for packing. Wondering if we need sweaters.

honneerider Posted January 9, 2010 #2 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Thanks for asking this question. I posed it in other threads, but never got an answer. Going on RCL Grandeur on Feb 1, and HATE AC. Always too cold, so now I am rethinking my entire packing list to forget the sleeveless attire and add more sweaters, etc. Any info would be greatly appreciated!

cb at sea Posted January 9, 2010 #3 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I've never been too cold inside the ship, and I chill easily. I do get a bit chilly on deck at night---it's quite windy! (Plus, it messes up my hair!!) I doubt you'll need sweaters.....bring something lightweight that you can wear over your sleeveless tops! Chances are, you won't need it!

Aquahound Posted January 9, 2010 #4 Share Posted January 9, 2010 As most guys go, I have not noticed. However, DW has complained about it being a little chilly. This is normally when first entering a large venue, like the dining room or theater. When the room fills up, everyone's body heat warms the place up. I think that's why they keep it coll beforehand.

honneerider Posted January 9, 2010 #5 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I've been to two weddings (Aug and October) where the AC was blasting so hard that I was extremely uncomfortable-and I was wearing a dinner suit. I had my hands turn blue. No matter what, I will have sweaters, sweatshirt and jacket on board ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bostoncruisegal Posted January 9, 2010 #6 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I am often cold, so I always bring a few cardigans and pashminas for the dining room and shows. I think it's similar to theaters/movie theaters/restaurants at home - I am usually cold there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thego6girl Posted January 9, 2010 #7 Share Posted January 9, 2010 My DS and DGF just came off of Navigator, and the DGF said she always brought a little cardigan with her to dinner and all of the public areas. I personally hate being cold. Regardless of where you are (we have been on cruises in the Southern Caribbean where it is hot outside, and in AK where it is absolutely freezing outside) large public spaces anywhere can be cool. So, bring something small that will come in handy "just in case".:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitty9 Posted January 10, 2010 #8 Share Posted January 10, 2010 It depends on the individual and how your body reacts. I'm never cold and find the public rooms to be very warm, but my mom was always freezing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debshomespun Posted January 10, 2010 #9 Share Posted January 10, 2010 I always have a sweater of some type I take on cruises, especially for the dining room and for the shows. It always seems to be very chilly in those areas. Sometimes I don't need the sweater, but I would rather have it and not need it, rather than need it and not have it! Welovecruzin--we will be on the 1-25 and 1-30 Navigator! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honneerider Posted January 10, 2010 #10 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Oh, I will have the sweaters, to be sure. Just checked the Mexico (Cozumel) weather and it is NOT balmy. I wore about 6 layers to some of the Giants games. Layering is good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brenda728 Posted January 10, 2010 #11 Share Posted January 10, 2010 I have always found it uncomfortably cold inside the ships, regardless of the cruise line. However, I'm a Floridian and used to warm (hot) weather. Even during August Caribbean cruises, I always pack sweaters, and I'm never sorry. It's always better to be prepared.

DCREHL Posted January 10, 2010 #12 Share Posted January 10, 2010 We are on that same cruise! I hope the weather warms up by then. I agree- bring a sweater and sometimes I take a large scarf or shawl along, looks better with your dressy outfits. The A/C is always too strong, men love it but most women shiver! See you by the pool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo70 Posted January 11, 2010 #13 Share Posted January 11, 2010 I have found interior rooms of cruise ships to often be a bit on the chilly side. I was talking about this during my last cruise and someone commented that it is done to create unfavorable conditions for viruses to spread. I do not know if there is any truth to this, but thought it was an interesting possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
