NanaLisa28 Posted March 20, 2016 #153 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Cruising on Gem next month.... I'm hoping to connect my IPad Air2 to our cabin tv to be able to watch Netflix. Do you know if the tv has an HD or analog connection? Also, do you know if it is possible to connect an IPad to it? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted March 20, 2016 #154 Share Posted March 20, 2016 So, a few quick points arising from things I've read here before I boarded: Both DH & I are Platinum Latitudes Members. We received two Dinners for 2 and two coupons for Free Laundry automatically. No issue with both of us getting our perk. We had a great turn out of Members at the CC M&G - thanks to the organizers!! There was also a large turn-out of senior Officers, including the Captain. Any questions... ask and I will try to answer or find answers... Thanks for reporting back, and have a great cruise!

Do you know if the tv has an HD or analog connection? Also, do you know if it is possible to connect an IPad to it? Thank you. I'll ask my DH and report. That's not my thing. But wouldn't you need an Apple TV box? Edited March 20, 2016 by Kingmaker_inc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingmaker_inc Posted March 20, 2016 Author #156 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Cruising on Gem next month.... I'm hoping to connect my IPad Air2 to our cabin tv to be able to watch Netflix. Do you know if the tv has an HD or analog connection? Also, do you know if it is possible to connect an IPad to it? Thank you. So, there are four TVs in our suite. They seem to be HD. Three of them are installed so close to the walls that you cannot access any buttons or ports on the back. The remotes do not have input select buttons, and so you cannot switch from one input to another. DH thinks that you will be out of luck if this is your intended use of the TVs. Sorry.

Do you know if the tv has an HD or analog connection? Also, do you know if it is possible to connect an IPad to it? Thank you. If you are in a suite, you have access to movies at no charge. As far as I could tell on the Getaway (2B/2BA) there was no way to connect an iPad. Edited March 20, 2016 by watchdiva Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NanaLisa28 Posted March 20, 2016 #158 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Not what I wanted to hear, but that's ok. I won't waste my money on HD cables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpufrost Posted March 20, 2016 #159 Share Posted March 20, 2016 TVs on Gem are connected to onboard intranet IPTV. They are completely inaccessible to end users, period. If you want to watch movies you have to use your own hardware. If you want a bigger screen you will need to bring a pico projector and get creative on what to use as a screen.

Highlander1 Posted March 21, 2016 #160 Share Posted March 21, 2016 what kind of cabin do you have? Do you know how 4 people sleep in a ocean view? Hope your enjoying your cruise. We love the Gem ! 4 adults in an OV Room will be tight quarters. The bathroom will be a nightmare. I'd rather spend a week in a tent.:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingmaker_inc Posted March 21, 2016 Author #165 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Kingmaker...thanks for all your updates !!!! IF you can.....can you find out who will be the concierge end of May? Francesco has been felled by fever, so if he comes up for air - I will ask him. As for the prior question, we had a normal day in Tortola, and apparently there haven't been many additional cases of sickness. All the safety protocols are still in place, and everything is moving forward normally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We love the Gem ! we have traveled 4 adults in OV and an Inside cabin a few times. It was a little hectic at times with the bathroom, but overall, it's all in good fun. you are on a cruise :) how bad could it really be? how much time are you really in the room? some of us had the spa pass so we showered and got ready in there. perhaps that might be a help?

tumblew467 Posted March 21, 2016 #169 Share Posted March 21, 2016 HI, when you see Francesco can see if he is on the April 11th cruise? Also how is the chair situation in the Haven outside sundeck? Are there chair hogs there as well? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peg013 Posted March 21, 2016 #170 Share Posted March 21, 2016 (edited) Kingmaker...thanks for all your updates !!!! IF you can.....can you find out who will be the concierge end of May? Pre-Concierge Desk told me that Monica would be our concierge for the April 11th cruise on the Gem. Monica confirmed that she will board the Gem on April 11 as our concierge. I would think she would still be there in May. Edited March 21, 2016 by peg013 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MICHLEV1974 Posted March 21, 2016 #172 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Does anyone in your party have Spa Passes? Wondering if the ladies spa has fixed the 2nd single soaker tub on the locker room? It was down and out for a few months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
