Allure/Oasis open spaces climate?

[Semi Retired]

Since there is so much open air on the main promenade and central park decks, how is the weather? I like having the air conditioning and don't like the "muggy" feeling when its too hot out.

The deck 5 Royal Promenade is climate controlled. The deck 6 Boardwalk and deck 8 Central Park are open to the outside and can get hot.

We just got off Oasis and I was pretty surprised at how comfortable Central Park got. It was often breezy/windy and the evenings were typically nice. It did get hot on deck 8 by the stairs, since the CP doors opened so frequently. The Boardwalk had double sliding doors, which prevented this inside on deck 6. Our favorite cool spot was aft on deck 5 during early morning or late afternoon, depending on the position of the sun. The Boardwalk was quite hot and muggy most of the time.

There are A/C vents in some of the open spaces. We were sitting outside eating at Giovanni's one night and I felt cool blasts of air. Since it's all enclosed I started to look around and sure enough there are A/C vents hidden in the façade above the shops.

Given that Central Park is only open above, it is feasible to apply chilled air on deck 8 and have it keep the area cooler than the other open deck areas.

Our experience on Allure was that they could not even keep our stateroom cool enough, so I'd be surprised if they are trying to do any significant cooling to Central Park.

Central Park on Oasis could get a little muggy during the heat of the day but was very comfortable in the evenings. The Boardwalk was hot, hot, HOT.

Our experience on the Oasis last week is that is was hot and muggy all over. The stateroom never cooled down, the elevators were almost unbearable. The promenade was ok. But all other areas seemed hot hot hot, muggy muggy muggy.

This is a good point. While obviously the weather changes, I've noticed after 2 trips on Allure that the design obviously went through some wind tunnel testing and it shows in some physical aspects of the design and the functionality. 14 days on her and I've found a lot of comfortable areas.
