When I was there March 2020 I thought it was cold as well as the ocean. I swam out to the floating bar December 2019 and it was cold then too. Granted it still was probably warmer than the water gets up here in the mid Atlantic most of summer. Edited June 15, 2021 by death_star 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruiszBug Posted June 15, 2021 #581 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Thank you, Bird T! This thread has been wonderful! Have been enjoying all of your posts since Day 1. I know it is early yet, but do you know what the earliest walk off time is for getting off the ship when it is finally time to disembark and head for home? I thought a 12:40 PM flight would be okay, until I read about allowing 3 hours to get through security/customs at the airport! 😲 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forgotmyCCname Posted June 15, 2021 #584 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Hi, Bird! I was wondering what the casino is like with every other slot "out of service". Is it crowded with people waiting for machines or does the smaller guest count make this a moot issue? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Smaller guest count helps a lot. Some plexiglass barriers stared to show up today. The tables appear to be trying to keep empty seats between players = three to table. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare BirdTravels Posted June 15, 2021 Author #588 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Traditional Dining. They are putting couples at either end of a 10-top. The six chairs in the middle are “reserved” (hard to see in photo). Lady in white with gentleman in black on one end. Two older ladies on the other end…. yelling at each other across the gap 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has been discussed several times already on this thread. Yes it’s open. Must use drink vouchers for drinks and the coffee machine is manned by crew.

Sorry if I have missed this, but what is the logic behind not having the windjammer open for dinner? Surely having another venue open for dinner would only help to space people out and improve social distancing ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the reduced crew count, there are not crew to staff it. Remember, each station needs a waiter to serve the food. Even when it is open, half the serving line is closed because one or two sets of each food is sufficient (no waiting). 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As capacity hopefully ramps up during the next few months it should become necessary/ possible to open it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
