I wouldn't be surprised if the reservation center said that the name of the new ship was the "Carnival Vista". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they had a slide extension, for disembarkation day, with the right slope and grade you might even be able to slide home after the cruise. You could skip customs, parking/taxi ride and even sleep in. I just got a bit more jealous.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elizanessie Posted February 23, 2015 #331 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I am guessing there will a lot of weight in those waterslides so how will this affect the rest of the layout of the Oasis design ? Will they remove perhaps something lighter down below and replace with something heavier to balance out the weight distribution ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why can't they just release them in the coming months, with the rest of the itineraries?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tough as Leather Posted February 23, 2015 #339 Share Posted February 23, 2015 [quote name='Lloyd555']That would be sweet, but I get the impression from what I have heard that the slides will have a small 'footprint'. They will likely end close to the start of the slides and in the deck 15 pool area. I'm thinking that there is also small/short slide for the little kids. I found this nice top view drawing by Patrice Alias Dvdou to illustrate a possible layout. [URL="http://s1231.photobucket.com/user/Teddricks/media/FB%20Patrice%20Alias%20Dvdou%20image%20with%20slide_zps4ingrnyx.jpg.html"][IMG]http://i1231.photobucket.com/albums/ee505/Teddricks/FB%20Patrice%20Alias%20Dvdou%20image%20with%20slide_zps4ingrnyx.jpg[/IMG][/URL][/quote] Hmmmm... Lloyd, your diagram was awfully close. And you mentioned an extra slide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just did the PE trip in December in like 2:50, maybe 2:55. It takes me a couple of minutes to get to the highway and it's 70mph the entire route until you get S of WPB. I take the 528 to 95. However, I'm not a huge speeder. I can tell you that I never hit 80mph unless I was seriously passing someone in a pinch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OfTheSeasCruiser Posted February 23, 2015 #343 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I think that there should be a "Countdown to Harmony of the Seas" sub-thread up next to the Countdown to Quantum Class... Anyone agree? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

royzer76 Posted February 24, 2015 #350 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Royal's US Twitter account just 'announced' Harmony of the Seas'. Someone asked 'where will she sail from' Answer 'will be revealed soon' Later someone asks 'Home Ports??' Answer 'Southampton Summer, then Cape Liberty' Is someone tweeting stuff they shouldn't be again?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
