Few Allure Questions...

[michelle028]

So excited to sail on Allure in March 2019 - Labadee, St Maarten and San Juan!

 

Quick random questions:

 

1) I booked the comedy shows 2 of them throughout the week, is it the same one repeated twice?

2) Do they have Caribbean pool bands on the ship? 

3) In the Windjammer buffet - is it organized into different stand alone stations or one big line up?

4) In Labadee - do you have to pay for umbrellas and chairs on the beach?

5) Do they have Silent Disco (they had it on Celebrity last year when I was on it)

 

Thanks for your reply!

1 I believe there are 2 comedians per sailing

2 yes

3 stand alone but not enough seating

4 no

5 no idea

The same comedy show is repeated about a dozen times, to give everyone a shot at seeing it.  The comedy venue is small.

 

Windjammer has different stations.

 

Chairs and umbrellas are free on Labadee, but the person who sets up the umbrella and chairs may expect a tip.

The Silent Disco nights on Celebrity are my absolute favorite!  I wish RCI would add them.  So much fun.

Some RCI ships do have that feature.

In preparation for my January cruise on Allure, I asked the same questions about comedians. Other CC members clarified that each comedy show features the same comedians. However, there are two different venues - Comedy Live and the Amber Theater. The online cruise planner will allow you to book once in each venue.

 

I, too, am hoping for a silent disco! I have seen it in Cruise Compasses for other Allure trips posted on these boards, so maybe we'll get one!

Awesome. Thanks.  Hoping to see it offered on the Allure next week!

Fingers crossed!

We just returned from the Allure.  The comedy shows from day 1 - 6 were the same show, held in the comedy club (there were 2 comedians).  Those same 2 comedians had a different show (with different material) on the last night, which was held in the Amber Theatre.  There was also a family friendly show they did earlier that last evening, but I don't think that was able to be booked ahead of time (you could just drop in).  

 

The Windjammer buffet has different stations, but it was always jam packed and chaotic.  There is a smaller breakfast & lunch buffet at the front of the ship in the Solarium that is MUCH less congested.  We always went there on port days for breakfast because it was much quicker and a much more pleasant experience.

Can you explain what Silent Disco is? We will be on the Allure in Feb 2019.  Thanks for your help!

Dancers wear headphones, which can be tuned to one of two different channels of music.

Any chance you could also post the Teen compass?  Mine does much better when he has an idea ahead of time what to expect and although I've seen a couple, they are rather old and even if I tell him that they don't really change, he would feel better if he saw something more recent.

 

TIA!

I definitely will ... I will try tomorrow. The teen area seems to be busier than what we usually see.

I never noticed one on Allure but I am glad there is one on Harmony as we are sailing on Harmony next month and I love Mongolian Wok food.  I didn't realize they had that on Harmony.  Thanks.
