Much better than Norwegians, which costs about twice as much. They even have these doo dads on the wall in the hallway to improve reception throughout the ship... I'm not a tech person, but that's not just a door swipey thingy? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, the thing that opens the door is actually on the door, and much smaller... That doo dad is called a repeater if my terminology is correct. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlshum Posted September 23, 2019 #604 Share Posted September 23, 2019 I've been following this review since you started on Day 1. This is my first "Sid" review and I love it! I am looking forward to being on Horizon in January. I went back and read your Vista review as well. I had to take my break from work to check up on what you were doing today! I'll check back in this evening...…. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are two entry points, but only one metal detector and x-ray at each... Whomevers idea it was to only have one x-ray at the entry point is a moron... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doo dad is called a repeater if my terminology is correct. No, it's an access point that broadcasts the network's SSID, using the 802.11 protocol and WPA authentication. (Oops, my geek side is showing. ) In layman's terms, it lets smartphones and laptops connect to CarnivalWiFi (or whatever the network is called), so they can use the FunHub app and/or browse the internet.

Rare sid_9169 Posted September 23, 2019 Author #615 Share Posted September 23, 2019 They have a huge jug of infused vodka at the pig and anchor bar... It has asparagus, onions, garlic, olives, jalapeno, and carrots... They use it in their bloody Mary's...

Tmommy4 Posted September 23, 2019 #623 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Joining the party. I’ll be getting on Horizon in exactly 48 days, give or take an hour or so. So I’m enjoying your play by play. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare graphicguy Posted September 23, 2019 #624 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Now, this is a cool live ship review. BTW, I bought some DETOX and FlyBy from Amazon. Tested both out this weekend. I'm thinking they're both the same thing. They both work pretty well, too. I like them better than anything else I've tried so far. Packing them for the Breakaway trip next week. Thanks for the heads up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
