What I’m most interested in is the Royal/Regal have a lovely area at the aft of the ship on the lido deck with deck sectionals sofas and chairs where you can sit and enjoy a drink and view off the aft of the ship. Some pics I have seen suggest there may be some sectional sofas and chairs on the deck above just outside of the gym. Thanks if you take the time to take these pics. Enjoy your cruise!🛳 They have sofas on deck 16 above the Wakeview but they are a smoking area However they also have them on both sides on deck 16 outside the buffet entrance - no aft view and they are covered but better than nothing!

franktown Posted October 20, 2019 #79 Share Posted October 20, 2019 3 hours ago, dides said: Well we made it onboard! Check-in was a bit disorganised but there were lots of staff new to the whole Medallion concept. We were Ocean Ready without Medallions and were directed to 2 different waiting areas until we were ushered up to scan our passes and collect our Medallions. We were onboard by 11am and in our stateroom by 11:30 (after heading straight to the Sanctuary to book our loungers later in the week) Prices are consistent with the other ships. All the cabanas that were next to the Retreat Pool before are up on deck 18 now. Our Premium Suite is lovely! And the Medallion door unlocking worked immediately Here are some pictures. So far we have toured the spa, kids club and eaten at Alfredos. More pics and info to come... Thanks for posting the pictures of the Premium Suite. The layout looks identical to the Regal. My favorite type of suite. You get the great forward facing large window and a nice side balcony. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MedallionNet is available at 9.99 a day on embarkation day only which they say is a 50% saving. Our plat/elite offer was 52.99 for 7 days.

There are some loungers in the sun and some partially covered by a white awning - but the sun moves so you may have to adjust the loungers as you go. This pic shows some of the loungers: Sandra and Chris 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaver John Posted October 20, 2019 #93 Share Posted October 20, 2019 We will be getting on the Sky on the 3rd. Hope you will still be on so we can thank you in person for all this info. Could you possibly take photos of the gym and Zumba when at sea. Also, do you have a photo of outside dining at Alfredo? Thank you so much. We are so excited, just started packing, and more than ready to go. Thanks, Nancy.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

h-sar Posted October 20, 2019 #98 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Thank you so much for the dinner menus! I’m excited at the prospect of French onion soup now being one of the features on the daily favourites. Fingers crossed. A couple of things I’m hoping you’ll be able to comment on... 1. Does the new back pool make the outside seating area behind the buffet a little bit rowdy or noisy? I always enjoyed sitting back there, especially in the late evenings. 2. (If you use it...) Does the more extensive new menu in the outdoor hamburger grill greatly increase the wait times in line? I liked being able to grab a quick bite of fresh, hot fries and am wondering if that’ll now mean a long wait with the different burgers, tacos, etc that will be available. 3. And again, only if you used it...did the food/drinks you ordered through your medallion via cell phone arrive pretty quickly or were there long waits? 4. Can people walk thought the outdoor Alfredo’s and Le Mer seating area or is it blocked off? Thank you in advance! Some of the above you might not be able to answer until later into the cruise. So grateful to you both for taking on this extra work in answering all our queries. You have made some friends for life 😊. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Nancy, yes outside dining was quite busy for Alfredos on embarkation day so we didn't want to disturb everyone. Didn't like the chairs though - not that roomy so we sat inside Will try and get a better pic when it's less busy. The poor staff have to walk the length of the restaurant from the ovens to get to the door though. Sandra and Chris 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
