need2cruisesoon Posted March 20, 2014 #1 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Here is a construction photo of the terrace pool just below the scaffolding. Looks like the Med cruisers will get a place to soak on those hot summer days. Please note the sister ship Britannia in there background also under construction.

Skai Posted March 20, 2014 #3 Share Posted March 20, 2014 The Regal is the sister to the Royal, correct? I haven't yet sailed the (current) Royal Princess, but from the pictures I've seen, there doesn't appear to be an aft terrace pool on her. Perhaps that is Regal's version of what is called the "splash (plunge) pool" mid-ship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmwnc1959 Posted March 20, 2014 #4 Share Posted March 20, 2014 (edited) I see now that's from the Princess Flickr page and the image is titled 'Aft pool'. Check out the title below and to the left of the image... . Edited March 20, 2014 by dmwnc1959 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MauiLvrs Posted March 20, 2014 #5 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Royal Princess, but from the pictures I've seen, there doesn't appear to be an aft terrace pool on her. Royal doesn't have one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmwnc1959 Posted March 20, 2014 #6 Share Posted March 20, 2014 THANK YOU for this catch. Even though many of us saw the picture in the Princess Flickr page I don't think any of us caught the caption title. Well done! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmwnc1959 Posted March 20, 2014 #7 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Looks Tiny! :eek: We pretty much knew it wasn't going to be anywhere near the size of the aft pools on a Grand-class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcrow72 Posted March 20, 2014 #9 Share Posted March 20, 2014 looks more like a large hot tub! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TorontoTL Posted March 20, 2014 #10 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Actually, a large hot tub would have been a better addition than a pool in my opinion. Or even better, an aft pool and a couple more hot tubs. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colo Cruiser Posted March 20, 2014 #11 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Maybe it will be a fish spa. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iamcruzin Posted March 20, 2014 #12 Share Posted March 20, 2014 I'm just wondering if the pool is going to turn into the La Brea Tar Pit if they don't address the soot issue that is a problem on the Royal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare 5:00_Somewhere Posted March 21, 2014 #14 Share Posted March 21, 2014 (edited) Thanks for sharing your find Needtocrusiesoon! Very interesting. As others have said, we knew it was going to be small, but it's something else again to actually see it. It's also interesting that it appears as if they've built up the area around the pool, which solves the problem I was wondering about with the Horizon Terrace being below. Would have been nice to have something bigger, but this is still better than what's there (or not there) on the Royal. I'm just wondering if the pool is going to turn into the La Brea Tar Pit if they don't address the soot issue that is a problem on the Royal. Made me LOL! I've been thinking the same thing. :D Edited March 21, 2014 by 5:00_Somewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethel5 Posted March 21, 2014 #15 Share Posted March 21, 2014 If I remember correctly, there was a thread about this pool and it was referred to as a "dipping pool." Well, being the good CC's that we are, we decided it would be a guacamole pool, a French onion pool,,,,well you get the idea. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribill Posted March 21, 2014 #16 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Anyone heard any update from Princess regarding a "Soot Solution" :confused: Strictly a guess, but my guess is Princess will make sure the solution works on the Regal before planning a fix for the Royal.
