Terry & Gail Posted May 26, 2004 #1 Share Posted May 26, 2004 We're going on the Serenade to the Panama Canal on a 12 day cruise. We have an aft cabin, is there a vibration problem? Thanks for any info, (What is the best cabin?) Terry & Gail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattinla Posted May 27, 2004 #2 Share Posted May 27, 2004 Modern ships very rarely experience vibration problems anymore.. and those with azipod propulsion, like the Serenade, especially do not, because there is no "drive shaft" running through the ship. I have stayed at the very back of a Celebrity M-Class ship and they are very similar in technical design to the Radiance class, and there was no vibration. About the only time you feel anything is when you are docking, or leaving the dock.

my $.02 Posted May 27, 2004 #3 Share Posted May 27, 2004 No vibration. Been on the ship in an Aft cabin and it was fine. You feel the ship "running" but no extra vibration or noice then normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
we2wed Posted May 29, 2004 #4 Share Posted May 29, 2004 Well, helllllooooo there, Terry & Gail. Guess who...it's we2wed. Remember us...we were married on the Radiance of the Seas at Oahu, Honolulu, Hawaii, all those years ago. I do believe you were in attendance. Funny thing is, we are also going on the Serenade thru the Canal. Won't it be just ducky to meet again. Soooo excited! This is my first time back on the boards since sailing on the Zuiderdam (won't do that again). Let's talk. Oh, and regarding your question about vibrations. The answers prove that you and Terry will have to make your own. Good ones, I hope. Oy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry & Gail Posted May 30, 2004 Author #6 Share Posted May 30, 2004 We2wed, we think you might have had some good vibration going on your wedding cruise. We certainly remember your wedding, cause it got us on the ship early (tee hee!) How are we going to top that cruise (can't be done). Are we going to be fighting for the aft cabins or maybe we will be neighbors. A year and 1/2 seems like a long time to be on these boards. Thanks everyone for your replys, can always count on fellow cruisers to get the true scope. Terry & Gail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
