I only buy and bring on dress slacks, capris, and shorts that have back pockets.  

 

Packing my fanny with my sea pass card...like it needs more packing!!!   😄 

As a Brit that sentence paints a very different picture!!! Not the place to keep your sea pass card on a family friendly cruise.😉

Did you choose one of the oversized sideways insides on deck 12 like 12263?  These are square with one side as the bathroom and entryway.  They cost a bit more, but they are well laid out and feel spacious. The only downside is that they have a chair instead of a loveseat.

 Was in  Cabin 12663 last October on her last cruise out of Tianjin to Singapore. Great cabin it is really spacious, even with the beds separated. Good location as well. Loved the virtual balcony.

Excellent review Bill thanks so much for taking the time to post. Your photos are Stunning.

Am even more exited for my Oct sailing Bejing to Singapore.

Thanks for all the useful information provided by everyone on this thread. Will be sailing on Ovation in October, with sister who has coeliac disease. How close to your sailing date is it recommended to Contact special_needs@rccl.com

FirstAnthem will look out for your report enjoy your cruise

Booked on NCL Jade on the 28th may sailing from Venice and just been informed by T/A that Kusadasi has been dropped and the alternate port will be Santorini,this is obviously for safety reasons.

 

We are also booked on the Dream for the 23sept from Corfu which has two port stops in turkey Cesme and Istanbul,just been on to check Thomsons website and that sailing has been removed so looks like there may be changes made to that cruise as well,anybody heard anything.

Was on the Thomson Spirt, Agean titans cruise last week. Stopped in Kusadasi last Mon. Had a fabulous trip to Ephesus, highlight of the week.

Didn't have any safety concerns personally, but I can understand the caution.
