Heatherclaire Posted October 22, 2015 #27 Share Posted October 22, 2015 My daughter Fern works as a hairdresser in the spa, she was shaken and upset about the fire, the staff quarters are flooded and smoke damaged. If anyone still on the splendour reads this, can you just look in on my daughter and say hello from her mom please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare nimbex1970 Posted October 22, 2015 #29 Share Posted October 22, 2015 A fire at sea is the most worry some and potentially damaging event. Kudos to the highly trained staff that contained this before it spread and caused further damage. A true testimony to their training and skills!

Posaune Posted October 23, 2015 #32 Share Posted October 23, 2015 It will be interesting to hear nationally syndicated radio consumer reporter Clark Howard when he returns from this cruise. He will have an unbiased opinion on how everything was handled in a crisis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello Gary, I was on the Liberty TA with you a couple of years ago and am glad that everything was handled well. Were you in an aft balcony? I became a bit concerned when marine traffic dot com showed the ship heading at 136 knots toward Venice. It was fortunately a glitch as all ship traffic was shown to have similar speedy progress. I am taking Liberty again out of Bayonne to Galveston on the Repo next week as I wanted to sail on the ship before she is 'enhanced'. Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Ah yes the Liberty TA............I remember you and playing TRASH. We are on the Harmony TA and have 100 people signed up for TRASH.........2 tables of 50 each..........OMG!!!!!! I can still hear "another one bites the dust"!!!!! Yes we are in our aft cabin - a JS #8082 - we had a bit of ash on the deck chairs but nothing more than usual back there. Right now we are watching lots of water taxi's as there are 2 NCL ships (Jade & Spirit), MSC Poesia and HAL's Rotterdam.............the port is full!!!! Hope to see you again at sea!!!!

Bennythecat Posted October 27, 2015 #38 Share Posted October 27, 2015 I was also on board & agree with all that crew handled the emergency very well. We were on deck 6 & were asked to stay in cabin. The woman in the cabin across from us when advised that she had to stay in her cabin repeatedly asked the crew member "why cant I go to the spa".....ummm there is a fire onboard.....I just rolled my eyes...some people can be extremely stupid :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
