littledee85 Posted February 11, 2011 #3727 Share Posted February 11, 2011 We will be going on the Adventure in three weeks. Does anyone know if there is wi-fi in your stateroom or do you have to go to the Internet Cafe to use a laptop. Thanks so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorey2007 Posted February 12, 2011 #3730 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Robyn,I hate to ask a serious question for a change, but here goes. Our flight home after the cruise leaves around 4:00, which leaves a ton of time to kill. We had planned on leaving our bags at Barrachina and seeing OSJ for a few hours, but now realize they don't open until 11:00 on Sundays. Which means we'd have to drag our bags around for a few hours before they open. Any recommendations on an alternate plan? I wouldn't get to the airport any later than 1:00pm that place was a zoo:eek:. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got off at 9 or 9:30, went straight to Barrachinas and were able to drop bags. The bar/restaurant doesn't serve yet, but the gentleman that handles the bag drop is quite ready. Your other issue is that a lot of the stores do not open till 11, but I believe the forts are open by 9 and there is a lot to see without shopping. Also, we were on a 3:55 PM flight, and did not get in cab for airport till about 1:30, and still had time to kill at the airport. There were actually very few lines at 2:00 or so. But in the interest of leaving time for something to go wrong, I wouldn't wait a lot longer than that... bobj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akinyyz Posted February 13, 2011 #3733 Share Posted February 13, 2011 So sad just returned from our 1-30 AOS cruise. I will have to get busy and plan another one. The Adventure was great and I have not one complaint. We did not encounter any of the negativity that has been posted on CC about the ship. If anyone has any questions I'll try to answer. The ports we had were Caracau, Aruba, Dominica & St. Thomas. We also stayed at the Marriott Stellaris and used the bus and free trolley. A special thanks to everyone who provided all the valuable tips I got here. I have all the Compasses if anyone is interested. We are going on that same itin March 13! Would love to get a copy of the compasses! What excursions or advice do you have? Awni Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davrap222 Posted February 15, 2011 #3737 Share Posted February 15, 2011 We are planning to book a cruise on the Adventure during our next cruise. We usually book a balcony or JS. Can anyone tell me if there are any "special" balcony cabins you recommend? Are there any with extra large balconies? We love aft cabins as well. I admit that I have not perused the 101 pages here! Thanks for any suggestions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruzfiend Posted February 16, 2011 #3739 Share Posted February 16, 2011 We had no wi-fi in our cabin. My BIL used the internet on board and said it wasn't too slow. We had a "hump/bump" cabin (6620) it was great and so was the room steward.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stefanny28 Posted February 16, 2011 #3740 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Hi everyone; I wonder if anyone can help? We are looking at AOS for Jan 2012 and were leaning toward the Promenade cabin on deck 8. we are 3 so we will book 2 connecting cabins. One for us and one for DD12. We are planning to book toward the front of the Promenade. How about cabin 8259 or 8253. Has anyone been in those cabin? I was wondering if you can hear a lot of noise . I know that when there is a parade, there will be some noise but that is OK with me, we will probably be up to watch the parade. The other question is how about the noise level during the 70's party? Is there one on the AOS? If there is one, does it last all night? When does it start and hopefully, when does it stop? Please, any advice is greatly appreciated since the other choice of cabin is 2 OV on deck 3 and I am not too fond of those. PS: I might as well ask if anyone has been in a OV cabin on AOS on deck 3? If yes, what do you think and any cabin nuber suggestion. We have alsways booked a balcony but since we really want 2 cabins this time, it is a little pricey to book 2 baclony for the 3 of us.

The 70's party was at 10:30 and lasted about 45 minutes. After the 9pm show in the theater we went right to the Duck & Dog and got front row seats. We are seniors and it was a blast. I remember one other parade which was on the last night it was also at 10:30 and lasted only about 15 minutes. Other than the Captains reception thats all that was on the Royal Promenade and for the most part was quite quiet. There was also some music playing in the Duck & Dog and some classical musicians right on the promenade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stefanny28 Posted February 17, 2011 #3742 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Thanks, Lorey. It puts my mind at ease to know that the 70's party will not go all night. By the way, what is the Duck &Dog? Is it the pub? Shaould I avoid booking room above it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it the pub? Shaould I avoid booking room above it? Yes the Duck & Dog is the pub. It may be a good idea to avoid a room right above it. I don't remember how late he played but if there is a crowd they may get loud, singing & clapping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuck38 Posted February 18, 2011 #3745 Share Posted February 18, 2011 I have seen lots of recent postings about the cruise compass for the Aruba, Curacao, Dominica, route. Does anyone have the cruise compass for the opposite itin? We are leaving on Adventure on March 6th. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtonra Posted February 18, 2011 #3746 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Do I need to be concerned about the fact that the pre-booking times for dinner are pretty well booked up? I wasn't planning on reserving my dining times in advance. I just booked the first night because I wanted to make sure I was able to be on deck for sailaway at 8:30. When I was doing that, I noticed that all the times from about 6:30 to 8:30 are booked and are unavailable for pre-booking. Does this mean I won't be able to walk up during these times either. I was sort of hoping / assuming that my time dining meant I could eat when I wanted (within reason of course). Should I be concerned or do they just limit the number of pre-bookings for a given time slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swimmomof3 Posted February 20, 2011 #3747 Share Posted February 20, 2011 HI. Could you please email me a copy of the cruise compass too? I'm at lvexler@roadrunner.com. Thank so much. I am trying to find out what nights are the ice skating shows and what night the Beatles show is. Thanks for the help- Laura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skydawg Posted February 20, 2011 #3748 Share Posted February 20, 2011 My question is do you know what is the food theme in the MDR each night on this cruise? I am trying to decide which night to book Portofino's! Do the Compasses show what the menu theme is? If so, could you email them to me as well? Thanks! skydawgz13@yahoo.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
