Chrispmoto Posted September 30, 2008 #1 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Hi. I have had to cancel my cruise on the Independence. I am however (thinking of) booking on the Freedom. How much, if any, difference is there between these two ships? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCCLCARIB Posted September 30, 2008 #2 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Just the name and some of the artwork onboard. Otherwise, exactly the same! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillfromWV Posted September 30, 2008 #3 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Independence has heated pools Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nanfromatlanta Posted September 30, 2008 #4 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Same ship, slightly different decor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honeywell Posted September 30, 2008 #5 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Sailing out of different ports, so one may be more affordable to get to than the other. Check both for airfare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrispmoto Posted September 30, 2008 Author #6 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Pools are unheated on Freedom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wannalottadough Posted September 30, 2008 #7 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Anyone know if Liberty has heated pools? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elizanessie Posted September 30, 2008 #8 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Anyone know if Liberty has heated pools? The Independence is the only one with heated pools,this is due to her homeport being Southampton UK :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrp96 Posted September 30, 2008 #9 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Also, I believe that Independence has kettles in all the staterooms. Other RCCL ships including Freedom don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that is true :) ..but I wonder if they will take them out when Indy goes over the pond? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrp96 Posted September 30, 2008 #11 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Yes that is true :) ..but I wonder if they will take them out when Indy goes over the pond? Isn't Indy going to sail in Europe part of the year? If so, then I'm sure they will remain. There has been discussion of them possibly adding the kettles to other ships as they are very popular.

Oh yes she will be back here next year :D Do you think the kettles would be so popular in the Caribbean? Heck although I am from UK and love my cuppa in the morning etc...no way am I making it while on a cruise ship :eek: :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck I pulled one this afternoon - I was trying to say that RCCL doesn't provide bathrobes in the regular staterooms and typed that RCCL doesn't provide bathROOMS in regular staterooms.:eek: OOPS!:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
