'Fess up....

[Butterbean1000]

We have beaten this dead horse forever. But what I want to know is if you will 'fess up to being a chair hog. Everyone here vilifies the beast but no one has ever confessed. Just wondering......

 

Enjoy your cruise:cool:

Sorry, I honestly haven't. Although, the fact that I get sick if I lie in the sun too long might have something to do with it.:)

[sparks1093]

I'd personally rather sit in the shade most of the time. The only chair I hog is my recliner at home:).

[firefly333]

Not me either, Im Irish and hardly sit in the sun, usually look for a shady chair.

[CharmedMom]

I also prefer sitting in the shade - if I'm relaxing outside, I am reading, and the sun tends to reflect off those white pages and hurts my eyes (even with sunglasses on). And yes, I am a book reader (not a nook or a kindle), I like to have a physical book in my hands and actually turn pages.

[misstopgun]

I don't think I have ever spent more than an hour at any given time on a lounge chair on deck, and then, I didn't save it beforehand.

[FightOnRon]

I prefer the shade too,,I have never sat in the sun by a pool on a ship.

[vwrestler171]

I'm not one for laying in the sun so I'm not one.

I will admit that I am a Jr. chair hog, just because all of the Sr. chair hogs! I will go down and throw my stuff on my chair around 8ish, just while I grab breakfast. But thats maybe for 20 mins! The Sr. chair hogs are so on top of it, if I dont grab one, there are none left by 9 ! Sorry, but true. :mad:

[bobsfamily]

I've been known to be an anti-chair hog... go down about 9ish... just saying..

[lillian marie]

I am blond and fair skinned and can't sit in the sun very long so chair hogging is not my thing. I just wish CCL would create some rules here and there would less of a problem.

[FLCruiser001]

To answer your question: No. I see alot of people are confused, however. Just because someone sits in the shade, they can't be a chair hog?:confused:

[jm100]

If the cruise line allows this to happen and refuses to do anything what gives people the right to take the law in their own hands.....just saying :confused:

Don't you know? It's always the other guy!

[Butterbean1000]

Don't you know? It's always the other guy!

 

Yeah, that is what I'm thinking. To tell the truth, saving a chair really has never occurred to me. We either lucked up on getting a chair or we didn't and moved on.

don't go here. I did confess when I returned from the Valor and got nothing but slammed. Good luck.

[5waldos]

Are there lounge chairs up by the pools?

[Sh1035]

yep on my balcony....don't even have to deal with it or watch the same lame entertainment over and over!!!

 

But I have been known to be a chair hog in the casino at a table.

[hawaii6o]

I am one of the people walking around all over looking for a chair. When I do find one it is always on the top deck which I dont mind. But they are really packed in like sardines all on top of each other. I dont stay very long. Just long enough to have a drink, catch some rays and then I am on my way with my towel.

Those chairs usually aren't in high demand, and there is no need to save them.

[tikimon]

Yes I confess I am to some out there a chairhog.

I am up every morning while on a cruise no later than 5:30 am, I will go up on top deck and walk around alot while hardly no one is out there ( it's the most peaceful time of the cruise for me), I feel like it is just me,God and the ocean.

After walking I will sit on Lido and drink a few cups of coffee, wait for the breakfast buffet to open and eat some breakfast then go back to my (2) lounge chairs that I threw my towels on before my walk and wait for my wife to get up and come out and join me.

 

So yes I just may be considered as a chairhog! :p

 

(You don't like it? Don't look at it) LOL:D

[finoky]

Absolutely not a chair hog. I don't need to hind behind a keyboard to say it.

[chicasarita]

I haven't been before, but after reading all the posts on it I am thinking about printing tons of little reserved signs and putting them on all the empty chairs around the pool at 6am one morning, just to see if someone from CC takes my picture and I become famous on these boards.:p

[Clipper123]

I've not seen the need to be a chair hog on the cruise ships I've been on. We never sit by the pool and there always seem to be chairs up a deck - sometimes we have to drag one or two around, but we've always managed to find 4 empty. Now, if I found that every time we went to get chairs, we could never find any, I might just throw our stuff on some on our way to breakfast and then come back and sit on them. I wouldn't save chairs and then go off and do something else for an hour or two though.

[maldenmusic]

Honestly, the only time we "hog" chairs is when we go to grab a bite to eat on the Lido deck. And since we always lounge aft, the Lido buffet is right beneath us so we are never gone more than 20 minutes.
