Rare BillOh Posted August 28, 2014 #51 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Very interesting, though I'm not sure I'll ever see Voyager again.:( We can hope, I plan on cruising at least 10 more years. I would book her again just to relive that first cruise again. After 8 years some memories are fading. I've seen a few pictures of things on her that I had forgotten about like a big glass pyramid on the pool deck. I checked with the boss and she said it was there.

I checked with the boss and she said it was there. I've always wondered why that pyramid was eliminated from every other Voyager/Freedom class ship. It acts as a skylight in the center of the Promenade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

littlesteelo Posted August 28, 2014 #54 Share Posted August 28, 2014 I've always wondered why that pyramid was eliminated from every other Voyager/Freedom class ship. It acts as a skylight in the center of the Promenade. Considering the size of the skylight and the distance from the RP to the pool deck, I would imagine there isn't much light that gets down there.

Yes, true, plus the pyramid is colored, so it lets in even less light. I always figured that they decided leaving that open space in decks 9 and 10 was too much of a waste, so they eliminated it.

Rare BillOh Posted August 28, 2014 #56 Share Posted August 28, 2014 I've not heard about changes to TV programming. In fact, the number of broadcast channels has declined lately. But an increase in the propoganda channels. I actually found some of those shows about other RC ships/cruises interesting, though if the intention is to advertise themselves they need to update the content. I was feeling a bit tired on Majesty last Halloween and went to our cabin while my wife danced. I saw a really good show about a family of 4's first cruise. It really made me want to book that cruise. Unfortunately it was about Mariner sailing out of LA. I've seen the show about the refurbishment of Sovereign as well. They also aired the show from one of the cable stations about the making of the new Voyager class ships that I found interesting. The channel was a great tool badly utilized.

The Marina Bay Cruise Ship Terminal Schedule has the following for Voyager of the Seas (which of course could be out of date)... perhaps they have extended the dry dock. 17 October - Arrive Singapore @ 10am, departing at 5pm for drydock 21 November - Arrive Singapore @ 7am, departing 10pm for Langkawi, Malaysia 25 November - Arrive Singapore @ 7am (last port Port Klang, Malaysia) ... here is the link to the website - http://mbccs.com.sg/index.php?option=com_jumi&view=application&fileid=4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retird Posted October 5, 2014 #73 Share Posted October 5, 2014 The deck plans starting Nov. 21, 2014 shows the main dining room as the Sapphire Dining room on deck 3,4, and 5.. No longer different names for the dining room on each deck. Anyone know whether traditional dining will be offered on all three decks, or is this in preparation for dynamic dining.
