ryano Posted February 9, 2015 #1752 Share Posted February 9, 2015 OK, people should not post under the influence of multiple medications :o. I read panoramic oceanview and then went on a virtual balcony train of thought. Yes, the big windows look to be there. Now, going to search for a cough drop and a cup of tea with lemon and honey. Maybe they will clear my head.:eek::o Feel better soon! :) [ATTACH]339659[/ATTACH] Here are Freedom (on the left) and Navigator side by side on Friday in Cozumel.

Cavy92 Posted February 9, 2015 #1754 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Just like you, I understand nothing about the technology of how these ships float and function, nor do I want to. I do want to know about safety onboard, so I pay attention during the Muster Drill (even though I have cruised plenty). I don't get consumed by things that I can't control, I do however enjoy everything I can and take whatever else happens with a big grain of salt. The cruise line keeps maintaining what I can see, and I fully expect they maintain what I can't see and do (just as you do in your home) the upgrades necessary and repairs as well. I always look forward to what is new on a ship (if I have gone on it in the past) and enjoy whatever is available. I don't sweat the rest. Absolutely!

Barklee Posted February 9, 2015 #1757 Share Posted February 9, 2015 I dont really see how these new deck 12 cabins on FOS could be anything BUT panoramic oceanview even though not listed as such on the website yet. Another IT incompetency maybe? While there were certainly some differences in the Navigator drydock and the Freedom drydock, the whole new addition and these cabin additions appear to be the very same in pictures. Why would they not be panoramic? I mean I know the danger of assuming and understand wanting confirmation before booking but Im gonna go with yes, they are exactly as they are on Navigator. The only accessible cabin up there was available for my April sailing but it was a little more than Im willing to pay. Shouldnt be long before we get some pics :) The non-balcony cabins being added to Deck 12 will be panoramic views with floor to ceiling windows. During last week's cruise they were working on them until late at night and you had a nice view into them from the helipad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wine Luvuh Posted February 9, 2015 #1760 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Check in at Terminal 1 was a total mess around 1230. Normally I try to arrive earlier or later, but I got there right in the middle of the rush. They stopped the security lanes on the lower level for 20 minutes, because the upstairs check-in/boarding area was too crowded. Once they started letting people through we went upstairs and there weren't any lines at the check-in counter. The lady that checked me in must have just finished training, because she didn't seem to know what she was doing and had a hand written name tag. Once I was checked in I was on the ship by 1:10. The computers also crashed at 11am as well which added to long lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During last week's cruise they were working on them until late at night and you had a nice view into them from the helipad. CD Drew said they were scheduled to have them complete in 2-3 weeks (1 side would be ready before the other) but they were hoping to have them complete a week early and could offer upgrades. I took pics from the tender - will have to download and post. Sabor was amazing in both service and decor!! Star Lounge was very nicely re-decorated. R-Bar was nice but did not have a drink in there. Cupcake Shop was open and running but seemed to be very slow. Elevators were awful and needed to be adjusted. If you were not standing directly in front of them when they opened, they would close in a second leaving you to wait for the next. That's all I can think of for now - was a great week with some bumpy seas! We docked in Falmouth - barely. Navigator was diverted to Montego Bay as she could not handle the winds.

Barklee Posted February 9, 2015 #1762 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Welcome back to grey skies and below freezing temps. Thanks Bill, this only convinces me more that I need to retire to Southern Florida. The computers also crashed at 11am as well which added to long lines. Thanks for the info Wine Luvuh. Sorry I missed meeting you and the others at the Meet and Mingle. It was scheduled at the same time as the Captain's Corner, where I found out about the Fixipod problem.

BlueSkySailing Posted February 9, 2015 #1764 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Does anyone know if Cabin#1814 Handicap accessible cabin and #1864 cabin are the same size? On the deck plan they are. But it says #1814 is 256sf and cabin #1864 is 211sq. I went out yesterday to take pictures of her new cabins on deck 12. Will post when I get off work. But only saw the cabins in her right side.

It was scheduled at the same time as the Captain's Corner, where I found out about the Fixipod problem. Good turn out - sorry we missed you! They gave away some impressive gifts this go round - a few 30 min of free internet and 5 bottles of wine/champagne! :eek: Which side will be finished first, the inside or the outside? Not sure I knew there were in and outs on 12! Sorry but not sure! I did wander down to 3 and looked at the new rooms where the crypt used to be but that was sheer accident! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you see the ocean, then you are on the inside. If you see the bed, then you are on the outside. Edited February 9, 2015 by Cuizer2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berniecruiser53 Posted February 9, 2015 #1767 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Sorry, my iPhone auto correct got me. I meant "plastic bottles" nor "Plastic bags titles". To answer 2 other questions: Check in at Terminal 1 was a total mess around 1230. Normally I try to arrive earlier or later, but I got there right in the middle of the rush. They stopped the security lanes on the lower level for 20 minutes, because the upstairs check-in/boarding area was too crowded. Once they started letting people through we went upstairs and there weren't any lines at the check-in counter. The lady that checked me in must have just finished training, because she didn't seem to know what she was doing and had a hand written name tag. Once I was checked in I was on the ship by 1:10. Yes, they were confiscating items at the security check (booze bottles, some mouthwash bottles, irons, etc) but I did not see any water or soda being confiscated. That's funny, I was wondering what plastic tiles were. Dam auto correct. Nice to know about the soda and water. I can see irons....geez people come on. Also the booze and the "Sneaky" mouthwash bottles. We never had problems at the old terminal and cruises out in 2 weeks and was hoping we'd be ok. Thanks for all your posts.

If you see the bed, then you are on the outside. Color me confused and no I have not had my champagne :D - either way - you could not access any of the area on 12 - I am only going on what the CD said so not sure exactly what rooms will be ready when but sounds like they should all be complete 3 week max.

Where did you see 1864 listed as 211 sq ft? On the RCL website, I see it listed as 175 sq ft since it's listed as a regualr cat F oceanview. I agree, based on the deck plan 1814 & 1864 look to be the exact same size (and I certainly hope so since I'm booked in 1864).

ryano Posted February 9, 2015 #1772 Share Posted February 9, 2015 I imagine the only difference will be the bathroom. 1814 being accessible will have a larger bathroom. They do look the very same size on deck plans though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruzin-K Posted February 9, 2015 #1775 Share Posted February 9, 2015 That will go with Quantum 3, Ovulation of the Seas.;) LOL. Apparently, I'm not the only one who makes that connection when I see Ovation of the Seas :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
