jeffdal Posted February 25, 2015 Author #4 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I know right! There were a handful of us on the November cruise at the lgbt mixer but nobody here ahead of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonTehGreat Posted February 26, 2015 #5 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I know right! There were a handful of us on the November cruise at the lgbt mixer but nobody here ahead of time. Oh cool. I have never actually been to one of the LGBT meet-ups. I was too shy :( On my last cruise I was going to go but I was with my cousin (straight) and it was the same exact time as dinner. This cruise I chose the late dinner to make sure I could go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the mixers are hit and miss. They are informal, nobody hosts from the ship and it is what you make of it. It's better to go the first night. My last cruise the bar was really busy with other passengers and we could not get a seat but I remembered a couple of the guys and ended up meeting them later at the pool. When we made an effort late in the cruise to go, we would notice people stopping by but leaving when there wasn't much mixing. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonTehGreat Posted March 1, 2015 #10 Share Posted March 1, 2015 I've seen some posts where they said they have had dirty looks from some of the straights once they figured out it is a LGBT group. Have you ever seen that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffdal Posted March 1, 2015 Author #11 Share Posted March 1, 2015 I've seen some interesting posts about gay charter groups on ships. but not much about the lgbt cocktail hours. I think the mixer is posted in the Patter but the bar staff has no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
