Does the glass roof over the acquavit and pool area on the expedition ships slide open and closed, similar to the ocean ships?

There is a small retractable roof but unless you are sailing in the tropics I doubt it is ever open. Calling it a “pool” is generous, the one in the spa is much larger. It connects to the outside where there are hot and cold plunge pools on either side. I never saw anyone using it. It’s more of a stairway to the outside.

Thanks for those photos. Im glad that the roof can be retract, as we will be on the ship in warm weather, and it might be fun to have it open.

All of the glass on the sides of the terrace are actually doors that can be opened. I suppose they can be left open or maybe they are on a track to allow the entire terrace to be open. 
 

In any case enjoy your trip. The ship is beautiful.
 

BTW the theater has a state of the art million $ 3D projection system, the best I’ve ever experienced. Be sure to go to any 3D movie presentation. It’s pretty phenomenal.
