msshawn Posted August 10, 2009 #1 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I'm thinking about taking a cruise on Ecstasy and was wondering can you feel alot of rocking on this ship? Only been on the Conquest and I had taken a couple of bonine. After a couple of days I did not have to take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted August 10, 2009 #2 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Some think it has more rocking. We had 25 ft waves, so we had a lot of rocking my first time. I was on voyager, and it had a wierd side to side that time, and some lady told me she was never cruising RCL again, must be they build their ships wrong, she was going back to Carnival, never again RCL, go figure? Ecstasy is older, so maybe the stablizers are a older design, never bothered me. but I bring bonine too .... just in case. I think I got my sea legs, because it never bothers me any more.

Scott_F Posted August 10, 2009 #3 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I was on deck 5, mid ship in June on Ecstasy and barely felt a thing. I think a lot of it depends on how high up you are on any ship as well as the weather in general. Rough weather, you're going to feel it. We came out of Cozumel on Rhapsody a few years ago and there was a tropical depression/storm we had to go through. It was pretty rough. I literally had to hold the handrails in the hallways to get anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skylock Posted August 10, 2009 #4 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Depends on how rough the water is. I had the worst ride of my life on the Fantasy last Jan, this past Jan same ship, same week, never felt a wave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msbr Posted August 10, 2009 #5 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I'm thinking the ocean and the weather will play highly in the answer to this question Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amerikaner83 Posted August 10, 2009 #6 Share Posted August 10, 2009 there may be rocking on the ship, but it may not be due to the waves, if you know what I mean :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CenTexGal Posted August 10, 2009 #8 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Our first cruise was on Ecstasy...February of last year. Our last day at sea was horrible... lot's of people were sick, barf bags were out everywhere you looked. I was perfectly fine on this ship until the weather turned bad...I have not idea what the size of the waves were, but, we were rocking and rolling BIG TIME. That being said...under normal seas, you will not have any problems on the Ecstasy. Our last cruise...February of this year...was on the Conquest. I never felt the ship moving at all. Our last day at sea, it rained, but I don't think the seas were as rough as last year on the Ecstasy. I think you will be at the mercy of Mother Nature on any ship:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
