emmy Posted October 14, 2005 #1 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Will be sailing in 8 days on Sapphire and was wondering where a good spot for sailaway would be up on deck... last OCt on Caribbean Princess we stood at the bow of the ship on deck 15 Lido deck which was on top of the bridge... wondering if deck 14 Lido on Sapphire is accessible which looks like in the deck plans to be on top of the bridge.

mii Posted October 14, 2005 #2 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Emmy, we had our sailaway party on the Lido Deck way aft behind the Horizon Ct. There also is the Outrigger bar there. They have tables especially on the Port Side. It worked out very well. Have a great cruise on her. Marilyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calikak Posted October 14, 2005 #3 Share Posted October 14, 2005 That's where we stood for sailaway from Seattle last month, up on top of the bridge. Not sure if it's always open at sailaway, but it was when we were onboard, great view from up there because you can look both forward and aft.

Mitchie872 Posted October 14, 2005 #5 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Emmy, our group is meeting at the Tradewinds bar on the Sun deck for our sailaway get together. Mikie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calikak Posted October 14, 2005 #6 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Em, I've been trying to remember if it's on Deck 14 or 15, but I just can't remember. I want to say it's Deck 14, and you go forward from that bar there by the pool and then there's a long walkway that leads to the area above the bridge, but maybe it was Deck 15...hopefully someone else can help you out with a better memory than me! :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kappellof Posted October 14, 2005 #7 Share Posted October 14, 2005 We recently went to the Skywalker's Night Club on aft end of the 18th deck. There are doors outside leading to a couple of balconies. They're not huge balconies, will hold maybe 15 people each. With this being the highest passenger deck on the ship the views are great. It's also a great place to find seating inside the windows for any sailaway accompanied by your favorite beverage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just checked the deck plan for that...it looks awesome there and nice and high..do you think these are private areas or can anyone go out there?

Sandy R Posted October 14, 2005 #10 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Whatever deck you decide on for sailaway, be sure to have a good view of the starboard landside... when the ship sails out of San Pedro, it passes the restaurants at Port of Call and sounds the horn. There is one restaurant that also sounds their horn back. All the people at the restaurants shout and wave. It's lots of fun. Sandy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare abbydancer2003 Posted October 16, 2005 #14 Share Posted October 16, 2005 I was on the deck above the bridge last Saturday for Sailaway. I liked it so much, I was there for the sailaways from each port. abby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
