Somebody better keep an eye on him on December 9th, when Edge and Silhouette are both in port in Ft. Lauderdale, so he doesn't jump ship! Wow. I didn't know he was a jumper! Then again, does a statue of a horse really need real grass when he can have his choice of all the decorative fake plants and trees on Edge?

To me, the ship looks amazing and I feel very fortunate to be able to board it in the future. ChicagoPaul has some good advice in his thread on the main board for those that are getting upset I feel the majority of the posts on this thread have been positive. Even those that point out something they don’t think they will like say they will wait to make their minds up once they cruise. We are very excited to cruise Edge in February. Have we noticed a few things we have concerns or questions about? Sure we do. We have purchased dinner at Eden. We don’t know if we will like anything on the menu, but we’re also looking forward to trying something different - our of our comfort zone I guess. Only time time will tell how the majority of cruisers react to this new ship. My guess is that most guests on the first couple of cruises will be previous guests of X. It will take several months to get a true take of how well the ship is received. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When no cruise passenger have actual sail The Edge. I think some on CC are clearly negative people. Others are delusional 😂... Some of us realize this beautiful ship is not complete yet & we will see some professional photos after the stop in the Bahamas 🇧🇸 Enjoy the Sea + each & every day 😉 Edited November 7, 2018 by Naughty&Nautical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice idea, hcat! It would be good to have a place where people who are cruising the Edge, or have just returned, could share their impressions, pictures, videos. Any further ideas are welcome! I will be starting a LIVE thread of my adventures starting Nov 24th (when we arrive in FLL). I will hopefully have a video to share of my grand entrance onto the Edge: I don't want to ruin the surprise, but it will involve a horse, a polar bear and some maple syrup....

(like a bunch of minions would do) reactions... If this is the rule, then let's post this rule in the upper bar... Oh wait, but the name of the site in the upper bar is Cruise CRITIC (someone before had actually brought this up already)! There is a clear line between being negative and poop on everything, and being observant and ask questions. If I personally sound too negative - my sincere apologies 🙂 At the minimum, each of my "negative" posts ends up with a positive expression of my excitement to sail on the Edge soon!

Rare hcat Posted November 7, 2018 #5313 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Can't wait for the VT Live report Want to keep this info stream as well...the Blocks title is sadly nearing the end..

vtcruising Posted November 7, 2018 #5314 Share Posted November 7, 2018 From the contact person at the United Way for our Nov 27 cruise, who spoke to LLP today: I spoke to the CEO today and she is on the ship, on the way here. She said “she’s magnificent”. I have to agree!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You see things you like, you see things you don't like and you see things you are unsure about that you want to find out more about. It's called having a balanced opinion. My issues have been more of marketing and hype vs. reality rather than a question of it being a bad ship. Some people just want to come here and stir up trouble though. Pay them no mind. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pl281 Posted November 7, 2018 #5320 Share Posted November 7, 2018 I'm not sure if the edge will show up on any of these cameras but it may - these are web cams from around the azores http://www.spotazores.com/ and https://www.webcams.travel/webcam/fullscreen/1214724319 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
