Does anyone know if the solarium pool on RCCL's Visiion of the Seas is heated? I'm taking a Baltic cruise in August and the weather at that time of year is only supposed to be in the low 60's. Too chilly for a non-heated pool.

Does anyone know if the cruises that go into Akureyri in Northern Iceland cross the Arctic Circle to get to this port?

Has anyone disembarked at Rio de Janeiro cruise port recently? I want to know if there are taxis waiting there, or if there's some kind of shuttle service. Cunard wants $135 for a "private car" to take me, one person, to the airport, and they don't offer a shuttle service. I'm thinking I could do better just taking a cab or, hopefully, a shuttle bus.

Dirty Room Service Dishes Left in Hallways
in Ask a Cruise Question
Posted
It makes me crazy to be walking down the hall on my way to my cabin and have to look at the dirty dishes left over from one of my fellow passengers after they've had room service. They don't want to look at their own dirty dishes so they place them out in the hallway for everyone else on their deck to look at. These are the same people who probably drop all their trash in a parking lot when they get out of their car. On a ship they probably think their cabin steward will remove the tray, but he's off duty until 8:00 the next morning. So after a lovely evening on the ship I have to walk past dirty dishes. Not only are they ugly to look at, I'm sure they're a safety hazard. If a fire broke out and passengers were trying to get to safety in a hurry, I'm sure stepping on a try full of dishes would cause a serious problem. Here's one thing that might stop people from doing this. The next time you walk down a hall and see a tray of dirty dishes, knock on the door a few times and then just keep walking. If the people in the cabin stick their head out into the hall and ask why you knocked, tell them it's because they left their dirty dishes outside. If enough of us do this it might just stop the practice. Also, cruise lines might leave a note on the tray or put an announcement in the daily news letter asking passengers not to put their trays in the hallway. Just a suggestion.
