Quayley Posted August 15, 2014 #1 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Hi everyone, I've kinda got a last minute question here, does anyone know where I can download zoomable deck plans? (Adventure) I've tried Shipmate however I can't seem to download them. When I put my phone into airplane mode, which my phone will be in for the entirety of the cruise, it tells me to connect to the internet to view the deck plans. Thanks! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montekat Posted August 15, 2014 #2 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I like http://www.cruisedeckplans.com. I am not sure if it is any better for what you want, but worth a try. Good Luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_G Posted August 15, 2014 #3 Share Posted August 15, 2014 (edited) Any chance you have a computer with Windows 7 or 8? First, download and install CutePDF. CutePDF installs like a printer and will show up on your printer list as a printer option. Using the Snipping Tool in Windows 7 or 8, highlight the deck plan you want and save it as a jpeg. Open the jpeg and select print off the File menu. Select CutePDF as the printer. When you hit OK, a Save dialogue box will open that allows you to name and save the deck plan as PDF. A PDF is much smaller than an image so it will be easier to transfer to your mobile device. If all you have is Apple products, sorry I can't help you. :o Edit: CutePDF is free.

Quayley Posted August 15, 2014 Author #4 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Sadly, I have a Mac however I guess I'll find a way. Thanks for the info Montekat, I've got those deck plans already, however they're too big for my iPad mini to take a screenshot of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quayley, if you click the "save to PDF" link you can save up to 5 decks in one PDF and it opens beautifully on the iPad mini. You could create a few PDFs to have the whole ship.

I didn't think this as it says "Print to PDF" Now I've got them all! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you are using an iPad mini you can download the Royal Caribbean app for the device. While you are still on wifi you can access the ship and the deck plans. If you go through each deck plan of the ship it downloads to the device and is accessible in airplane mode. I have done this many times using the app and my iPhone this way. I hope that this helps:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I read some unhappy people were saying the deckplans weren't being included anymore. The app description doesn't mention them either. Or maybe they heard the complaints and added them back?

You are correct I had not noticed that change since I have not used it in over a year:(. Good thing you said something or I would have found out on my own in a month on my next cruise. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm glad you learned about the change while there's still time to find another solution. Looks like I'll be off to make PDFs now (sigh).

CruisanSusan Posted August 16, 2014 #14 Share Posted August 16, 2014 I just put my iPhone in airplane mode and checked my Shipmate app. In "my cruises" the zoom able deck plans are there. Or am I missing something in your post. Make sure you have the most recent download. 😊 ⚓ Susan 🐳 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
