gumballz Posted October 15, 2005 #1 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Would a ship be decorated for Christmas by a December 4th sailing or would it be better to wait until a December 18th sailing (as far as decorations go)? Also, is it decorated lavishly or just a few things here and there? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texancruzer Posted October 15, 2005 #2 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Depends on the ship....but most of them begin decorating the cruise AFTER Thanksgiving. From what I have read, they get them up pretty quickly and they are supposed to be really beautiful and yes they decorate most of the ship. I can't wait. We leave Nov 26 so they will be decorating while we are onboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamloopsCruisers Posted October 15, 2005 #3 Share Posted October 15, 2005 We did a cruise the first week of December - if I remember we sailed about December 3rd and decorations were not up. Ship was being decorated as we departed. We've cruised twice at Christmas - both times sailing about December 18 - 20th, and ships were decorated by then. Don't think you can count on decorations being up for your early December sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisin from florida Posted October 15, 2005 #4 Share Posted October 15, 2005 What a great bonus for our Dec. 18th cruise! Thanks for the heads up.... Great, now ANOTHER thing to look forward to on the cruise. Like getting through October, November and half of December weren't going to be hard enough already!! :-( Maybe this is something to add to the "Why I won't cruise with RCCL again" thread. They make it TOO HARD TO WAIT FOR THE CRUISE!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruising89143 Posted October 15, 2005 #5 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Last year on the Navigator we sailed on 12/03. They loaded the decorations while we were in Miami and they starting putting them up about mid week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerseyGirl23 Posted October 16, 2005 #6 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Looking forward to seeing Christmas decorations on our December 19th cruise! :) :D :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gumballz Posted October 16, 2005 Author #7 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Well that just helped me decide which week we're cruising. If I'm going in December I'd like to enjoy the holiday spirit that decorations can bring! Thanks everyone! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
