trainbuff Posted October 23, 2019 #27 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Regarding the lifeboat drill on the Oct 8 disaster of a sailing my muster station was in the promenade under the dome. My cruise card was scanned to verify my attendance. The drill in this location was a joke as you could not hear the safety talk clearly and a waiter eas going around during the drill trying to sell specialty dining. Unbelievable.

Thanks for doing this Q/A btw. I believe the only draft is Heineken in all bars but the pub. I am not sure which are included in Easy package but I will ask next time I go to the pub. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can get me a plan of the dining room tables (the maitre-d would have one) I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks. Hi do you know which dining room of the 3 you are interested in? It’s very hard to find anyone to answer questions during the day but I could take photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have to post them while you cruise if the internet is slow, but I'd appreciate it if you posted them later. How's MDR food? How's buffet? You can compare to other major lines if you want. We've been on Princess, RCL and NCL before. We have found the main dining room food to be good, not excellent. Portions are small in some cases but you can get a second entree. The buffet is very good, they have a lot of different stations, pizza, hamburgers/hot dogs, salad, meat and cheese, breads, several different hot dishes, a chef slicing meat such as turkey or beef etc, side dishes, tacos/nachos, soup, fruit, dessert. I have two of the MDR menus. I will see if I can get a couple more this week. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aprilsp88 Posted October 24, 2019 #37 Share Posted October 24, 2019 May I ask, after you embark do you see a better internet package deal than the 20% off precruise? Trying to decide should I buy it now or wait. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivey99 Posted October 24, 2019 #38 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Are there any hidden areas that are less busy? Any outdoor areas other than the top decks? I've been on other ships that had loungers in the lifeboat area with some views and peace and quiet. Just curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smile145 Posted October 24, 2019 Author #42 Share Posted October 24, 2019 For the person asking about beers on easy package. I don’t have that package but they are saying Heineken only. Maybe someone who has that package can confirm. I have premium plus that includes all beers. Earlier I posted the pub menu, this is the beers at other bars: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been on other ships that had loungers in the lifeboat area with some views and peace and quiet. Just curious Any area not part of the deck 6/7 main central mall/promenade is less crowded. No one is using the outside areas on this cruise because of the cold temps/high winds. They are all beautiful and will be great in the warm weather areas. The water slide park is open daily but it’s not used much nor the outdoor pool. I saw one person all week use the outdoor pool. There are many great areas on the upper decks but the deck with the lifeboats does not have any view on this ship unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aprilsp88 Posted October 24, 2019 #48 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Thanks for checking the internet for me. Another question, how many show times are there in the theater each night? Do you have problem reserving it? Which show time is less busy? Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wor1dTrave11er Posted October 24, 2019 #49 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Aww no food in Sports Bar? We enjoyed having the option of (free!) bar snacks on Divina. So I see that no food is served in the Sports Bar on Mera, and limited pay-for offerings in the Pub. Are there wings available anywhere on the ship? Is any pay-for food offered in the Pub worth the upcharge, or is it the same burgers and stuff as the buffet and you pay for the privilege of not making the hike there? Also on the subject of (free) snacks - are there finger foods or snacks available in any bars/lounges, or is it only MDR/Buffet? On Divina, there were light snacks you could get at the wine bar (La Cantina Di Bacco), and Piazza Del Doge almost always had sandwiches and some nice cakes available. Anything like this in the wine bar/sky lounge/anywhere else on the ship? We are getting on Mera for Thanksgiving this year (Martha Stewart Thanksgiving dinner apparently will be available, not that I will be interested unless she gets reaaaaally creative...), and we have a Cirque dinner included with our booking. Isthere more than one time available for Cirque dinner daily? I believe there are 2 cocktail shows but only 1 dinner? Having seen the dinner reviews, not impressed and would rather have dinner elsewhere, wonder if they will trade for a cocktail show instead.

There are typically 3 show times each night for main show plus 2 for Cirque when that is playing. Sorry I can’t answer which is less crowded but no problem so far on reserving. Today there is 3 showings of the main show, plus a comedy show plus 2 of Cirque. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
