Hi, which deck or how do you get to the bow of the ship on FOS ? Is it always open ?

 

Thanks

 

 

More RFS pictures ...

 

 

 

If you follow the secret passage, you will come to this hidden second balcony off the RFS ...

 

 

Okay - that is actually the bow.

Does FOS have laundry rooms? If not, how much is laundry service? Thanks ;)

[counsdr]

There are no laundry rooms on RCCL ships. The laundry service is not that expensive. I just brought enough clothes to last me the entire 10 days. If you need to rinse something out, there is a line in the shower and you can hang things on your balcony if you have one.

The easiest way to explain how to get to the bow is to go all the way forward on deck four. You will come to a flight of stairs. Go up the stairs. Then go past the area reserved for the crew and up a small flight of stairs. That will get you to the bow.

 

I suppose that if it is too windy, the bow might be closed, but otherwise it is always open.

Would anyone be able to send me the compass and menus (if available) for the FOS Eastern Caribbean? I'm leaving in 3 days and I just wanted to check out formal nights, shows, etc. to prepare early.

 

Many thanks.

I may have located a copy on my email, lets see if it works!

[ironcitygirl]

Hi all...

 

I was wondering if I too could get a copy of the compasses and menus for the Eastern cruise? Please send to iron_city_girl@yahoo.com (there are little underscores between iron_city_girl....

 

Thanks so much! :D

[DanielleM09]

Thank you to all that e-mailed me the cruise compass. I really appreciate your help :)

[Lynne95]

As a future cruiser on FOS, I appreciate everyone who has posted! There is a lot of info to be found.

 

I have done serveral searches for the compass and menus for the western run, but most have been too small to read. Would someone please send me a copy at Wyndale1@comcast.net?:o

 

I have to run now and read Radio's thread. He does a great job with his reviews!

 

Have a great day all!

[TrishOB]

Lynne, just sent Compasses to you from 6/21/09 sailing!

[Lynne95]

I sent you a thank you, but in case you didn't get it, it bears repeating!

Hi,

I had read somewhere that the Aft Junior suites are a bit smaller and may not accomadate a roll away. Does anyone know if this is true and how much smaller they are? Thanks so much!

This is an aft facing junior suite on the Mariner of the Seas ...

 

 

 

 

 

Does it look smaller to you?

Hi, thanks for posting those pictures. they are great. However I thought mariner was a different class ship than Freedom. Do you think there might actually be much of size difference anyway? It does not apear so in your pictures of mariner.

Sorry, I thought I was on a different thread. You are correct, the Mariner and Freedom are different classes. Nonetheless, I believe the Freedom class is just a lengthen version of the Voyager class with a hot tub added to each side (boy am I going to get flamed for that). I believe the width of each ship is the same. Edited August 27, 2009 by Cuizer2

Thank so much Cruizer2!

I've seen questions and comments about this so I thought I'd post for anyone interested.... Just got off the FOS eastern itinerary and we did NOT need to wear our life vests at the muster drill.
