Distance between midship and aft elevators on mclass ships

[boquer]

Can anyone tell me how the distance between midship and aft elevators on M class ships compares to the distance between mid elevator and aft on Radiance class ships?

Thank you.

I'll take a stab at it. Using the deck plans, my ruler on the screen, and the length of each ship (meaning it's a rough approximation) I come up with 154 feet for M class and 214 feet for Radiance class. It's not totally accurate, but I'd guess it's accurate to within 10 feet or so.

If I remember correctly, there were probably 20 or so cabins between my mid-ship cabin and the aft elevators on the Summit.

Thank you very much. I've been worrying about this since my husband has difficulty walking and we prefer mid ship on 9 to the new aqua class on 11. When we've sailed on Radiance class the walk between mid ship and our (then) favorite aft cabins was a bit of a hike.

I am mobility challenged and have recently returned from C

onstellation. I am happy to report that I found that expanse to be quite doable.....far shorter than S-class and shorter than the same area on Freedom. So doable that I am contemplating changing my upcoming Reflection cruise to M-class due to ease of access with limited mobility (among other things).

An interesting comparison you raised. You'll find it's actually the same!

 

Radiance and M class have the same base structure. Radiance didn't get elevators at the back to save money for RCL, but the vestibule is the same distance.

Well here I was all reassured and now Big M is making me concerned once again.
