    An interesting question - I don’t know the answer. I think you’ll need to ring Azamara to check.

    That’s once before it was sold to Sycamore - can’t remember the exact date.

    Here’s a quote from Sony. “Noise-cancelling audio devices use a built-in microphone to analyse the ambient sound waves around you and generate the opposite sound waves to reduce surrounding sound. Noise-cancelling devices have a built-in microphone which produces the opposite reversed sound waves to neutralise surrounding noise.” Wireless headsets have rechargeable batteries.

    And you always have the option of using headphones & playing music on your phone.

    I’ve never seen Deck 11 empty except when it’s very windy and then it’s usually roped off. On sea days we’ve usually found it to be pretty full.

    There is shade in the smoking section which is on the Pool Deck, Deck 9. There is shade down both sides of the Pool Deck.

    Do you mean you go to the Patio to eat to hear the music or go into Windows so you don’t hear the music?😉

    Looking at the photo, it looks impossible to get into the bathroom unless the shower doors are closed. In fact it looks difficult to get into the shower at all!

    We absolutely loved our aft balcony, the balcony is much larger & we never noticed any vibration
  10. Grandma Cruising
    You’re right, I didn’t scroll right far enough. Difficult to know whether that would apply on the other ships!

    Our Halifax card was fine on Pursuit in Feb/March this year. We always have our Chase debit cards with us too as they charge no commission or exchange fees too.

    Can’t imagine using that size shower with a door on it, I’d just keep bumping my elbows and my DH would probably not be able to get in.

    We love the sun deck exactly as it is. It’s a great place to sit in the sun with more space around you, with a breeze, especially on sea days. We love the peace and quiet and most definitely don’t want music!
  14. Grandma Cruising
    Yes they do, sofas and comfy chairs up along the glass at the front of the ship
  15. Grandma Cruising
    On the spreadsheet there is a report of 6061 on Quest which says no issues with noise. The cabin is in the same place on Onward so it should be the same. It’s over Discoveries bar which is quiet during the day and after about 9-9:30 at night.

    If you book a cruise that has OBC as a promotion, you can’t really expect to cancel & keep the OBC, unless you are lifting and shifting your booking!
  17. Grandma Cruising
    That’s normal practice!

    We use the Halifax Clarity card too. It’s recommended by Martin Lewis/MoneySavingExpert. No card fees, no currency transaction fees and gives a very good rate of exchange.
  19. Grandma Cruising
    Wow, looks amazing
  20. Grandma Cruising
    So make sure you take a screenshot when it’s there!
  21. Grandma Cruising
    Thanks for your informative & interesting posts. Your Destination Celebration looks fantastic, what a varied and interesting programme.
  22. Grandma Cruising
    We felt like that about Journey in November, but totally different on Pursuit in February, despite the GI issues, pool closure etc.
  23. Grandma Cruising
    It may depend where they provision the ship. Our Pursuit cruise, which did have lobster, had spent the winter season in South Africa where all seafood is relatively cheap (all food was very very cheap in Cape Town).

    Did you click on the paper/pencil icon, then on available, then on each excursion?
  25. Grandma Cruising
    Great photo!
