I think it is a cool idea, no stormy seas, no sea sickness, no tendering, it is win win.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mr walker Posted July 16, 2013 #4 Share Posted July 16, 2013 do they have formal nights & if so can you wear jeans? do you tip? do they have muster drill? port or starboard?; aft, midship or forward? do you have to checkout pool towels? ship tours or do your own? do they wait for you if you are back late? :):):) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted July 16, 2013 #5 Share Posted July 16, 2013 do they have formal nights & if so can you wear jeans? Never on formal nights do you tip? YES do they have muster drill? You will still need to know where the fire exits are. port or starboard?; aft, midship or forward? I would still go for a cabin that is forward starboard do you have to checkout pool towels? ? ship tours or do your own? Either, the choice would still be there do they wait for you if you are back late? LOL, -No they lock the doors and keep everyone in for the evening.:D :):):) See my comments above.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MicCanberra Posted July 16, 2013 #7 Share Posted July 16, 2013 ...Unfortunately, however, you are also stuck with no other destination. :D It also means that any staggering down the corridors is due to alcohol and not the sea.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Kruzer Posted July 16, 2013 #8 Share Posted July 16, 2013 It also means that any staggering down the corridors is due to alcohol and not the sea.:D Can you take your own wine on board or is it confiscated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dizzy1948 Posted July 16, 2013 #9 Share Posted July 16, 2013 I saw this a couple of months ago in a UK paper - and the price per night was: 48 euro - yep - not a misprint. I wonder if you can get upgrades? :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted July 17, 2013 #10 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Can you take your own wine on board or is it confiscated? I would expect you could take your own luggage onboard (without it being checked in and scanned), so yes, you can.:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MicCanberra Posted July 17, 2013 #12 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I wonder if they have a Sailaway party, and if so how long does it go for.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Big_M Posted July 17, 2013 #13 Share Posted July 17, 2013 As long as you want - since you don't have to get up early for the port in the next morning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gek Posted July 17, 2013 #14 Share Posted July 17, 2013 If you jump overboard can they turn the ship around to pick you up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted July 17, 2013 #15 Share Posted July 17, 2013 If you jump overboard can they turn the ship around to pick you up? They wouldn't have to, it is not like you would drown or become shark bait. Although the fall may be a bit of a harder landing.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
