Maryalyce Posted March 6, 2010 #1 Share Posted March 6, 2010 I will be sailing on Explorer in May. My cabin is on deck 7 (7330). The deck plan shows the library and the Royal Promenade both on deck 7. The deck plan also shows the Royal Promenade on deck 6 and deck 8. Are there really three different ones? One on each of those decks? Thanks in advance.:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you have a great time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedropuppy Posted March 6, 2010 #3 Share Posted March 6, 2010 no there's not. the actual promenade is actually on deck 5 and is open to above to deck 8. that's why it probably shows deck 5,6,7 and 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why you see it on deck plans for so many decks. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By being 4 decks tall, it is a beautiful, mainstreet-like area that draws crowds for parades and is the central "main drag" of the Exlporer and the Voyager, Freedom and now Oasis class ships. To get a look, go to YouTube or Flickr and search for Royal Promenade and there will be several videos and pictures to see. Have a GREAT cruise!! --------------------- Sea ya!

PrincesScuba Posted March 6, 2010 #7 Share Posted March 6, 2010 sit at sorrentos and people watch for hours. cool deck. You did that on the Freedom. The OP will be on Explorer, which does not have a Sorrento's on the Royal Promenade. Just trying to control expectations. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean Boy Posted March 6, 2010 #8 Share Posted March 6, 2010 You did that on the Freedom. The OP will be on Explorer, which does not have a Sorrento's on the Royal Promenade. Just trying to control expectations. :) But she can do it at the Cafe Promenade. Just as an observation people seem to make Sorrento's seem like some great pizza place. After sailing Indy my impression is that all they really did was put two Cafe Promenades on the Royal Promenade and name one of the Sorrento's. They then took the pizza out of the Cafe and put it into the newly named location. The nice thing is that it does seem to help disperse the crowds so that neither location ever seemed crowded to me.

Thanks for clarifying for all, OB. (but I was talking about the Sorrento's part of lbumb's post, not the people-watching part. :)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maraprince Posted March 6, 2010 #10 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Open atrium area spanning 4 decks that you can look down on deck 5 where the parades are held and the shops are located. MARAPRINCE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(but I was talking about the Sorrento's part of lbumb's post, not the people-watching part. :)) I know. I just thought I would add in a little distantly related information. You certainly are correct that there is no Sorrento's to people watch from on Explorer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Visually, decks 6-8 are just the windows of the promenade cabins on these decks and of course open atrium space between each side. On deck 6, there is a small bridge, but it is reserved for entertainers/crew only. There are public rooms like the library located at the end of the Royal Promenade.
