WarEagle76 Posted December 11, 2012 #2 Share Posted December 11, 2012 We had snow in the atrium on our Panama Canal cruise on Island Princess in 2007. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heavy T Posted December 11, 2012 #3 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Do they do the snow only on Christmas night or is it scheduled throughout the length of the cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarEagle76 Posted December 12, 2012 #4 Share Posted December 12, 2012 As I recall it was done on a number of occasions and was mentioned in the Patter when scheduled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailingpeace Posted December 12, 2012 #5 Share Posted December 12, 2012 May I ask what you mean by snow? ( I come from a snow country, I am wondering what ship snow is like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickEk Posted December 12, 2012 #6 Share Posted December 12, 2012 May I ask what you mean by snow? ( I come from a snow country, I am wondering what ship snow is like? They use artificial snow machines from a company called MagicSnow... http://magicsnow.com/ It seems to be a polymer base and actually evaporates after a few minutes. While it's floating down, it appears to be a good approximation of falling snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See pictures below (not really long strands, but shutter open longer so flakes show up that way). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasmineB Posted December 12, 2012 #9 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I've sailed over Christmas a half dozen times in the past 10 years on both the Coral and Island as well as the Emerald and Crown and never seen this. Wonder how I missed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skynight Posted December 12, 2012 #10 Share Posted December 12, 2012 They have it during their events, such as the champagne waterfall, Captain's cocktail party, and the Pop Choir performance. The snow is real, not some plastic flakes, but very fine and evaporates on the way down and does not really reach the floor on deck 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infi Posted December 13, 2012 #14 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Do Coral and Island have snow in the Atrium at Chrismtas, or is it only the larger ships? We had snow on the Coral last year and the Island in 2010. I think the only ships that don't have the snowfall are the smallest ones, like the Ocean and Pacific. We're leaving this sat on CB, any chance we'll see "snow"? According to Princess, they do the snowfall on all December cruises, so you'll get to see it. Enjoy your cruise - we sail on the CB the week after you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
