Maybe they'll move it after the crossing of the pond, when the ship is more stable. GROOAN? Sorry. Came up with that on the spur of the moment. Maybe I should rein it in. 17 hours ago, jryan110 said: Whoa Nelly! You're having a hay day with these puns!!

The window does not appear to go down all the way, which leaves the height too high for comfortable viewing if standing at the rail. Especially if you are short! And based on this video, at the 3:28 mark, it appears that they are already having trouble with the windows. Notice the maintenance guy banging on the window, and many only 1/4 down.

Thanks for the preview I will never have one of these, but must say it is not very plush.. canvas lanterns will collect dust...first photos show dull beige..the grey seems much more alive The jetted tub is nice, with a window but has high step up..

Did not notice the window issue but will watch the video again..it was really great....love the horn blasts We have already concluded that seated views out of the Veranda will be difficult due to where the top window stops and also it will be double panes if seated.. Have already dubbed it our AQ veranda kennel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iamthesea Posted November 5, 2018 #5208 Share Posted November 5, 2018 (edited) That's funny! I showed my husband and together we determined that the higher height of the mid rail, combined with the lower seating, may just work better for views out than with some of the other ships verandas! But looking through double panes of salt crusted windows could prove to be a problem. We will just have to enjoy the extra room that these verandas offer when the window is up. 🙂 Edited November 5, 2018 by Iamthesea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanging out by the hippie van will give him access to munchies, and I’m sure the bartender would salt the rim of his water bucket😉 Wonder if the bartender goes by the name of Wilbur?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope those who pay the big bucks will enjoy it! I agree. Not very impressed. It also looks smaller than Penthouse on S or M class but apparently it is larger on interior space vs. S class. Balcony has been reduced in size by half compared to S class though and is over 5x smaller than M class. The massive balcony is one of Penthouse on the other ships so that is disappointing.

No, I have not been wowed by the style so far from seeing the Penthouse or bit of the Royal Suite. Iconic Suite was kind of messy still so can’t fully judge. Not necessarily the best lighting in these photos we’ve seen so far so hopefully they look better in full daylight or full room lighting. I have to say I have found Edge a bit anticlimactic overall from all the photos that have been coming out. It honestly doesn’t look that much different from S-class and there really isn’t much that’s “cutting edge” that I’ve seen. I’m sure I will have a comfortable and enjoyable cruise as I always do with Celebrity but I guess I was just expecting a bit more based on how much they have hyped this ship.
