cruiserrobby4 Posted December 3, 2015 #1 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Hi everyone, I recently read that there is a new venue under construction in the promenade on the Freedom of the Seas. Does anyone know what this will be and when it will open? What used to be there? I read that it will either be a new loyalty shop or a Seaview Cafe. Thank you very much.

Clarea Posted December 3, 2015 #2 Share Posted December 3, 2015 I'd be very surprised if it's a Seaview Cafe, since Royal has removed those from 3 ships already, and next year the last one goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MADflyer Posted December 3, 2015 #3 Share Posted December 3, 2015 I forgot to ask when I was on Liberty, but the Kung Fu Panda Noodle Shop is supposed to be coming to all Oasis, Freedom and Voyager Class ships by the end of 2016. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
relaxlynn Posted December 3, 2015 #4 Share Posted December 3, 2015 We were on Freedom in November and were told that the Next Cruise office was expanding into the Cafe Prominade area (not taking it over) maybe this is what you heard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jticarruthers Posted December 3, 2015 #7 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Just off Freedom last week, there is definitely construction there. The compass referred to visiting the NextCruise desk on "the promenade" even though it was in the elevator lobby on deck 6, so I think it is likely that is what the expansion is going to be. Thumbs down from me, the seating space at the Promenade Café was much more useful than a packed NextCruise area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouhunter Posted December 3, 2015 #8 Share Posted December 3, 2015 In 10 cruises I've never seen a "packed" Next Cruise area...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlatrice Posted December 3, 2015 #9 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Also on Freedom last week. It's the new Next Cruise area. At the C&A event the Captain showed drawings of what the space will look like after it's done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jticarruthers Posted December 3, 2015 #10 Share Posted December 3, 2015 In 10 cruises I've never seen a "packed" Next Cruise area...... Standing room only on Freedom last week with 3 "reservation" lists for consultants, wish I had kept up on the changes to the program so I wouldn't have wasted my time waiting for my reservation to be honored.

Royal2464 Posted December 3, 2015 #11 Share Posted December 3, 2015 The construction is the renovation of the Next Cruise office and is due to be completed later today, with the grand opening either tomorrow or Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
