Clarea Posted March 28, 2017 #28 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Thanks Bob. Do you know when they will open up sailings for Freedom? That's a mystery. I had expected Freedom today with the other Seasonal Caribbean openings. Now I have no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alfaeric Posted March 29, 2017 #31 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Another negative, the big ships never hit as many islands. So, whereas Adventure stops at 4 or 5, will Freedom stop at only 3 or 4 in order to conserve fuel? One of the reasons to fly to SJ are the port intensive sailings, IMHO anyway. Sent from my LG-H631 using Forums mobile app at the captain's corners, the data they've given out seems to show the bigger ships are far more fuel efficient per passenger. If it was a problem, it would be the size. And of the ports the Adventure goes to, the one that may have a length problem would be St Lucia, seems like (small basin to turn around in). The only difference in the ships is the length... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my LGLS990 using Tapatalk We've been thinking B2B on Freedom winter 19. But did 2 weeks on Jewel this winter and have Adventure for next January both out of SJU. For now just snagged an aft corner B2B on Adventure Feb 2019.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my LG-H631 using Forums mobile app Freedom is barely any larger than Adventure. Very slightly longer, otherwise almost the same ship. That won't have any affect on itineraries.

alfaeric Posted March 29, 2017 #34 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Freedom is barely any larger than Adventure. Very slightly longer, otherwise almost the same ship. That won't have any affect on itineraries. To add to this- Wiki has the dimensions.... Adventure is 1020 ft long, and has a beam of 127 ft Freedom is 1112 ft long and also has a beam of 127 ft. So it's just 92 feet longer, that's it. Oh, and longer water vessels use less fuel, as they have less drag- so given the only different dimension is the length- it's possible that the Freedom uses less fuel overall than the Adventure would. These ships spend most of their time going a constant speed, so drag is the primary loss. In other words- the Freedom should make more money if they can fill it than the Adventure would.

Mrs Cigar King Posted March 29, 2017 #35 Share Posted March 29, 2017 I like the Freedom class. I'm looking forward to booking a B2B for Spring 2019. I'm watching hourly for when it comes out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MindyJohn Posted March 31, 2017 #38 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Not ideal but 14 days in the Southern Caribbean is what we'll need January 2019. So I just booked Jewel!

Sent from my LG-H631 using Forums mobile app The itineraries are the same! The Southern routes are very popular. I didn't think they would put a ship there that couldn't continue to travel to the same ports! :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
