So something has happened in the interim. Perhaps Host Grandma can check? Phil I can and will ask the question, but am not sure that they would be able to change it back from portrait to landscape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never was a problem with the old boards. It was a nightmare uploading with the new boards anyway so I am not sure as I am cruising for a while if I can do anymore. I have had a look and seen that older versions earlier on in the thread are still OK. I will ask CC if the change-over could have caused the problem with this one and if so whether anyone there can put it right Probably not, though, as it looks like its a read only file. As you're cruising at present, I would be happy to try and upload it onto the site again for you. If you would like me to do that you could email me the file, as the only up-to-date version I can see is on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandma Cruising Posted November 12, 2018 #578 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Just got the answer back from CC. As I expected they can’t do anything about putting the file back to landscape. I was told that it was possible that the file size may have made a difference. One possibility may be to split it into 2 files - say one for Decks 4, 5 & 6 and the other for Decks 7 & 8. Again if you want to send me the file, I can have a go at splitting it - I promise not to change anything else on it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare uktog Posted November 12, 2018 Author #579 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Unfortunately as I said I cannot do anything about this until after Christmas when I can next access the file which incidentally will be almost the same size as the previously ones the number of new entries in the last version would not have made that big a change.

mchell810 Posted November 13, 2018 #582 Share Posted November 13, 2018 I downloaded the file -- with the comments visible -- a while back. I am trying to attach it here, but as it's my first attempt on CC I am not sure this will work. Hoping this will be of some use.

grey traveller Posted November 13, 2018 #583 Share Posted November 13, 2018 It is very interesting to read the comments on this thread regarding the cabins but nobody has mentioned how small the shower cubicles are in the staterooms along with the plastic curtain. On an upmarket promoted cruise ship you would think that there would be some comments on this feature in ALL Azamara cruise ships but hey Not one. Is everyone that goes on these cruises wafer thing or am I missing something on this thread?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, I have mentioned the shower on several threads, but not this one, as it is for repeat az cruisers, who are aware of the shower size.. See On another thread, someone told me that I was beating a dead horse!!!! DW, 4'10" says Az is her favorite cruise line! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all get clean in the shower, and that's what really matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritza Posted November 13, 2018 #586 Share Posted November 13, 2018 You would think they would get rid of the shower curtain. 1/2 star loss for that one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grey traveller Posted November 13, 2018 #587 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Ritza if you got rid of the shower curtain there would be water everywhere. On all the small size cruise ships I have travelled on this is the worse design of all in any upmarket fleet for size. You are right Tom47 we maybe flogging a dead horse because on this forum everyone seems to just love Azamara with it's minute shower cubicles and all. I for one have booked on Regent Seven Seas Voyager for next year so will be able to report back on their bathroom too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cabin INFO.pdf Thanks for this, it reads fine, but it’s not the latest version as there is no information about the Pursuit, which Uktog had added. It’s still very useful to those going on a Quest or Journey cruise though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrbluesea Posted November 16, 2018 #590 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Ship. Pursuit Room. 8052 The standard of the suite is outstanding. Everything well maintained, however the fitting of the balcony door means that with any sea movement it squeaks like a rat in a cage. I would avoid the room for any cruise with a large number of sea days. I did try to get the problem sorted while on the cruise but with no success.

Dean Posted November 22, 2018 #591 Share Posted November 22, 2018 My wife and I booked 8090. From the comments it appears as if the motion and soot makes this stateroom one to avoid. should we consider changing to a standard with a smaller balcony hopefully midships aft if available? Our cruise is next November from Singapore to Dubai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our cruise is next November from Singapore to Dubai. Dean, I'm guessing you'll get different opinions, but I'd keep the veranda on the stern. We've been next door in 8093 and the soot was a minimal issue. And we've never been bothered by motion on the stern in either a VX or an Owner's suite. On rare occasion when the ship is going full speed we had significant vibration in a deck 6 Owner's suite, but we just slept through it and it passed.

We always book a midship veranda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These cabins are going to be new higher category in 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean Posted November 23, 2018 #595 Share Posted November 23, 2018 I really appreciate the replies from Marinaro, Tom and Mackdogmolly. They were very helpful. I will stay where we are. This Board is really great. The opinions of past passengers helps upcoming passengers to make decisions. Thank you again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovecruzin Posted November 26, 2018 #596 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Cabin No.: 8049 Ship: Pursuit Month/Year sailed: Nov 2018 Would you choose this room again? Yes Is noise an issue: Less than we expected, the occasional scraping of chairs from the Patio but it was not bothersome. Balcony size: Larger about 50% wider than a regular balcony Any other comment: Shower only, no tub. Great mid ship location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In US measurements, perhaps 5 ft. x 2.5 ft. And it had a glass door as well. This photo doesnt really do it justice.
