I have no firsthand knowledge. But I don't think it will be available to regular passengers, until possibly sometime after the World Cruise.

Is a quiet evening possible on Vision of the Seas?
Coralc replied to Elise17's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Generally, the Promenade deck is windy as all get out, when the ship is underway. Viking Crown is quiet, until disco starts. The Solarium is quiet, generally. On most ships, I sit up on the pool deck and read. It is generally quiet, once the insanely loud movie is over. You'll find somewhere to read. I always do. But actually, thinking about it...I can read through all kinds of noise. It doesn't have to be quiet. 😊 -
Allure of the Seas June 4-11, 2023

Thanks! Interesting. D+ free Wash & Fold has always only been available on sailings of 5 nights or longer. So that one is true. It won't be on the 3/4's. ☺️ Unless you are talking about a suite perk? -

We had a sensor go out on our alarm system. We were out of town. The alarm company was unable to reach us and called the police. The neighbor called to tell us the police were at our house. When we came back in from yardwork, we looked at the home cameras, and they did check all of the doors. The funniest camera shot was of the officer with his notepad copying down our alarm permit number and Bobby the cat staring and silently meowing at him from between the curtains up on his cat perch. I'm sure our cats were freaked out by the noise, too. Poor Lizzie. -
It is absolutely horrible and disgusting. We don't go over to SF anymore. Beautiful city just gone to trash and crime. And Oakland is the same way, if not worse. We are moving, albeit slowly. But we did have the flooring guy out today. We will be ordering the flooring, dumping some furniture and slowly progressing. And it looks like poor Bobby is going soon. He is fine, and still active. But according to his labs, he is hyperthyroid again and has very poor heart and liver labs.

Have you ever encountered this before where you live? It is weird if it is new to you. We first experienced it in 1991, with the Oakland Hills Fire, which was very close. But in the last few years, it has happened with some regularity, from large fires that are quite a distance away. It just depends on the wind and the air pressure. Check out Purple Air to see if there are air quality monitoring stations near you. It is kind of alarming when the air is that bad. And it looks bad there.

I think of soot as what gets on the sides of your fireplace when you burn logs. And soot, as from the black residue that comes from cruise ship smokestacks. I may be thinking of it wrong, but what we get is piles of dark colored fine particles, that are more like ash, after you have a fire. And they turn into muck, when you hose them off.

Alaska cruises are very casual. Jeans and sweatshirts are common attire. We did kind of dress up one night, but it was not required.

Our friends in Sydney, AU did the Antarctic plunge on Seaborn. Um, no. Nice cruise line apparently. They received a big book and travel documents about their cruise and expedition jackets. And @aussielozzie18 our friend Jake is a tour guide and fix-it person at the Sydney Opera House. But I don't know if he is still doing it anymore.

Izumi Hibachi - making reservations on embarkation day
Coralc replied to BobNoxious's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Serenade doesn't have Izumi Hibachi. Another ship, maybe?
