BlueSkiesRunning Posted September 11, 2013 #1 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Four guys from the Washington DC area checking for others. Anyone know the if, when, and where of regularly scheduled LGBT (formerly FOD) meetings? (No, as one of our group suggested, it is not late nights in Central Park) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADaSilva Posted October 3, 2013 #2 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Haha, late night in central park sounds too typical! :D Young cruiser traveling with a group of 44 (family and friends) looking to meet other LGBT travelers! 58 days and counting. The excitment is definitely building up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCCLCrown Posted October 18, 2013 #3 Share Posted October 18, 2013 Hey bluesskiesrunning I'll be there. You guys want to get a drink? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSkiesRunning Posted November 24, 2013 Author #4 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Sailing soon! Not a big crowd of gay guys showing themselves so far. Have not found where the FOD/GLBT meetings are held. One suggestion is to check the Community Bulletin Board which on other ships has been a chalk board located close to the Guest Services desk (where ship staff helps with problems). Sometimes this info is also in the daily information paper that everyone receives in their cabin each evening. Ships do not usually show this info for the first night. Would be great to meet for a drink on the first night but a little complicated with sailaway and safety drill and other parties. Last time i tried to get guys together in a bar that was closed for a private party. If anyone wants to meet the first night I'll just pick a bar... any suggestions? Time? Usually its 5:00 p.m. to include the early eaters but if all of us are dining at the late seating we can make it 7:00 p.m. Let me know. If the first night does not work, check the Bulletin Board or the daily paper or ask someone at guest services and we can hook up at the official location on the second night. Happy Sails to you!

ShadowFig1 Posted November 24, 2013 #5 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Hi Guys... Ryan here..Actually there will a large group of us on board. We are all coming from Texas to celebrate two of our guys getting married on Oasis during the cruise. As for the FOD meetings, on Oasis (and Allure) there is usually more than one per day. The first FOD meeting has usually been held at the Champagne Lounge around 5pm and then there is a second later at night anywhere from 10pm-midnight and they've been held in the Viking Crown, Blaze, Jazz on 4, or in Dazzles. Sometimes it is printed in the Cruise Compass, sometimes not. However, you can always find it on the bulletin board by Guest Services. (Was just on Allure in September and this was the case) See you soon! Ryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSkiesRunning Posted November 25, 2013 Author #6 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Thanks Ryan, at last some knowledge of how things work. We got tangled up with a large wedding party group for two guys a few cruises back and had big fun. Here is a Plan A for the first night if anyone wants to meet up: 1.) Check the Bulletin Board and Daily Schedule and if meetings are listed, go. 2.) If those sources show nothing, gather in the Champagne Lounge at 5:00 p.m. 3.) If that is not possible, (Safety Drill, sail away, lounge closed, etc), forget it and wait til next night when meetings should show up on the Board and/or paper. Best, and see you on board, Steel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
