BoiiMcFly Posted January 26, 2017 #1 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I see the new Mega ships such as the Harmony of the Seas having an open promenade. Is it able to close when it rains or how does it deal with the weather to prevent flooding? PS. I love the central parks they have on the ships now.

wolfcathorse Posted January 26, 2017 #2 Share Posted January 26, 2017 (edited) Central Park is not the Royal Promenande. Only the Boardwalk and Central Park is open. The Royal Promenade is still inside. You walk through a set of doors at the end of the Royal Promenade to access Central Park/Boardwalk Edited January 26, 2017 by wolfcathorse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxoocruiser Posted January 26, 2017 #3 Share Posted January 26, 2017 The Royal Promenade is on deck 5 of all Oasis Class Ships and is fully enclosed. Central Park and the Boardwalk are not part of the Royal Promenade and are fully open. When it rains you get wet same as on any other open deck.

BoiiMcFly Posted January 26, 2017 Author #4 Share Posted January 26, 2017 sorry am not familiar with all the exact names. I guess I am referring to the Boardwalk and Central park. The new ships have lots of open spaces, so I was just wondering how they dealt with heavy rain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new ships have lots of open spaces, so I was just wondering how they dealt with heavy rain? Same as any open deck on a ship...the water is drained through floor drains and scuppers.

Rare JessyCruises Posted January 26, 2017 #8 Share Posted January 26, 2017 If I remember correctly, there are umbrellas at either end of Central Park that you can use. I may be dreaming though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slyster Posted January 26, 2017 #9 Share Posted January 26, 2017 (edited) I remember being on oasis and we were walking to Chops Grille (central park) for a dinner reservation. It was raining pretty good. We walked on the sides to get there. I can't remember if the sides are covered, but I think we walked pretty close to the side so we wouldn't get wet.

You are not dreaming, you are correct. At both ends there is a holder with several umbrellas you can use. At least thats what we experienced on Allure.

You are correct - you're not dreaming (unless it's dreaming about being on board and walking thru Central Park).:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
