Rare island lady Posted July 5, 2016 #26 Share Posted July 5, 2016 One thing I know for sure, the mustard station is adjacent to where the hot dogs and burgers are served. :p And you know what they say....."If you don't mustard, you will have to ketchup". :p :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted July 5, 2016 #27 Share Posted July 5, 2016 I already knew that. On the last cruise I was on, my Stewart told me where to find the mustard station. Did you find the bananas there also?? ;) :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frawnsay Posted July 5, 2016 #28 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Not 100 percent sure but maybe 99 percent as I have sailed both Oasis and Allure and have an upcoming cruise on Harmony.A1-4: Vitality At Sea Fitness Center B1-4: Amber Theater C1: Jazz on 4 C2: Blaze Nightclub C3: Comedy Live C4: On Air Karaoke Club D1-4: Studio B Ice Rink E1: Royal Promenade E2: Promenade Cafe E3: Champagne Bar E4: Guest Services F1-4: Main Dining Room G1-4: AquaTheater I know this is an old thread but I hope this answers any remaining questions! No need to worry about muster on this ship, as all but one area is in a comfortable, air-conditioned venue. I don't mind it one bit! (After all, it is for your safety!) Allure is a wonderful ship, as is the Oasis class of ships in general. I'm new to RC, so please don't hate me. I believe the listing above are categories? How do you know which category your cabin is? Or, where can I find this info for my particular cabin? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, where can I find this info for my particular cabin? Thanks! Those look like categories, but in this case, I don't believe they are. For one, there are no "E" categories on Oasis class. For another, we were in a D6 and were assigned to the theater. I also see no JS, GS,CL and other categories. My guess is that they are fire zones or some other stateroom grouping. To answer the next question, I don't know of a way to determine what fire zone (or other grouping) a stateroom belongs to.

CORKY_Q Posted July 5, 2016 #30 Share Posted July 5, 2016 My only 2 other cruises were on Carnival ships and both times we had to meet out on the pool deck near the lifeboats, wearing out life vest, in the heat. I hope in September I get a nice indoor muster on my first Royal cruise lol. The good news is you no longer have to carry or wear your life preserver to muster.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob, would I be wrong in guessing they are the actual muster station numbers? Will be interesting to see where we "mustard" on Oasis coming up.

Rare island lady Posted July 5, 2016 #32 Share Posted July 5, 2016 The good news is you no longer have to carry or wear your life preserver to muster.:D From what I understand, that was eliminated years ago due to too many pax tripping down the stairs on the life vest belts dragging behind. Agree, very happy to not have to wear them now either. We looked like a bunch of orange turtles. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, where can I find this info for my particular cabin? Thanks! No worries! That's my fault, I should have been more clear. Each muster station onboard comes with a letter and a number. I put that out there to answer questions for those on here who were wondering where the locations were. So in this case, those are muster station codes. My apologies for the confusion and welcome to RC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troykahack Posted July 7, 2016 #35 Share Posted July 7, 2016 Curious as to whether or not there is a list muster stations floating around somewhere (Allure). Was wanting to get an idea of where ours will be? Depends on cabin location. But if you book a Suite, in case of a problem at sea,all suite guests are loaded on the lifeboats first.

I've sailed on both Oasis and Allure so I've memorized the ships pretty well! If you know the location of your cabin, I might be able to give you an idea of where it might be. Just remember to bring the ketchup! (For some reason it won't let me insert an emoji here. lol) Edited July 7, 2016 by CreativeCruiser119 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frawnsay Posted July 7, 2016 #37 Share Posted July 7, 2016 Thanks! So, if I found someone who had my cabin on my ship, they could tell me my code and then I'd know where my muster station is? [emoji848][emoji848][emoji848][emoji848][emoji848] I'll just wait and see! That's about the only way to make a muster drill just a little exciting [emoji23] Thanks for the welcome!

Penciltwister Posted July 7, 2016 #39 Share Posted July 7, 2016 (edited) Is there any food served at muster? Surely they can't expect us all to hang around starving? Edited July 7, 2016 by Penciltwister Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbiegator Posted July 7, 2016 #40 Share Posted July 7, 2016 Do y'all know they still hold a counter in hand on Carnival and pretend to count people.Standing outside under roof near life boat in muggy weather at PC.Plus takes twice as long as RC.

That's about the only way to make a muster drill just a little exciting [emoji23] Thanks for the welcome! Happy to be booked! Muster stations are not decided based on cabin category or by deck, but on location within the ship. For example, if you are in a D2 category cabin forward on deck 10, you will report to a different location than D2 cabins in the aft section of deck 10. But if you know where your cabin is on the deck plan, i.e. forward, midship, aft, I might be able to pinpoint as I may have stayed near it on one of my previous cruises. Enjoy your cruise!

CreativeCruiser119 Posted July 7, 2016 #42 Share Posted July 7, 2016 (edited) Is there any food served at muster? Surely they can't expect us all to hang around starving? Unfortunately, no. As a matter of fact, all guest services are suspended 15-30 minutes in advance. However, the drill never takes more than 20-30 minutes and once it's over, for me it's back to the room to send my last texts and posts for the week (as my family and I don't bother with the expensive wi-fi), and then straight to the deck for sailaway with a refreshing virgin cocktail in my hand followed by a tasty dinner to start the cruise!

They're paying suite fares so they deserve a better chance of survival Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we'll need to go to the buffet first and stock up on some snacks? Do you know if the WJ supply takeaway boxes?

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I know the MDR does, but not sure about WJ. However, if you bring a box of your own, I do not believe there are any rule about taking food out! As for bringing snacks, they announce ahead of time that smoking, eating, drinking and using cell phones/ electronics during the drill is not allowed. However, I'm sure some assembly station leaders are more lenient than others! (Once again, insert emoticon here). I do believe most are strict on the matter though, as my brother tried to bring his Coke freestyle cup to muster on the Allure and he was not allowed to bring it into the dining room, which was our station. If I recall correctly, I think he left it with a crew member outside the entrance to the MDR and he was able to reclaim it once muster was dismissed. Not 100% sure that's how it unfolded, but I do remember he was not allowed to bring it in. Edited July 7, 2016 by CreativeCruiser119 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They think they are funny, but they are just obnoxious and like to torment. :( Can't wait for elementary school to be back in session after summer break. ;) You may want to put them on ignore also, like many others are doing.
