Rare ReneeFLL Posted September 16, 2023 #27 Share Posted September 16, 2023 @Beeline Cruiser OMG! You are finally on a ship again. Looking forward to your food reviews. They’ll be the same as before, but hopefully the pictures will actually be yours. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First MDR was not my FAVORITE but the servers were good. Photos coming but food isn't an excuse for all the other problems. And yeah seriously no one has rose colored glasses on anymore!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keksie Posted September 16, 2023 #30 Share Posted September 16, 2023 What are you doing while in Seward? So many things to do there and now you have time to do them. Our favorite cruise of all time was on Radiance out of Seward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you have a good cruise and find something you like although it’s sounding like that is highly unlikely. Don’t forget to try the Mac and cheese. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, we usually eat more meals in the WJ then anywhere else. If we are tired from a busy day we will grab a bite in the WJ instead of a lengthy dinner in the MDR. I thought our cruise on the Radiance had really good food. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njkruzer Posted September 16, 2023 #34 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Radiance isn't the only ship stuck because of bad weather. Norwegian Escape is anchored off of Staten Island. At least in Seward you can walk off and on. Btw the draining of water in the Solarium pool is because the floor around the pool is tile which would be quite slippery if water came out of the pool in rough weather. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use to Cruise ever Sept, at least 1/3 my Cruises they had drain Pool due to Weather/Waves/Hurricanes. At least Radiance is back in action.

Agree, never been Gross in my Experience. On Serenade since Labor Day, been eating in WJ at least twice a Day and still no issues. Though offerings/Menus(inc the WJ) are still better on these longer Sailings then short cruises of 7nites or less 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair comment and I did say on another thread this morning that from a safety perspective the decision not to sail was the right one. It's just the way in which this was communicated especially after the two cancelled cruises. Maybe Radiance should be rename Emotional Rollercoaster of the Seas?

Rare Beeline Cruiser Posted September 17, 2023 Author #43 Share Posted September 17, 2023 Ridiculous! This bed isn't comfortable enough for a whole week - maybe the first night or two MAX if you're tired. Seriously?! And we can’t wait until tomorrow to leave this ship!! And yes we'll be staying at the Hilton in Anchorage until Friday with points. Honestly I am SO grateful to go back and actually SEE ALASKA!! That's what we all came here for, right??

You're still on a cruise. 50% OBC and free drinks...We would take it without hesitancy. If you fly back, you will have to do it on your own dime. And they have been very firm about no additional compensation. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YES but spending it in Anchorage will be an amazing experience and value for money to get here + see nature, HUGE!! And yes it is only 240,000 Hilton Hotel points. Honestly being onboard hasn't been such a great experience - we just want off tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
