breezy_carol Posted January 30, 2017 #1 Share Posted January 30, 2017 When I went on Freedom for my first cruise in 2014, there were a friendly group of CCers who wore either pink boas or fedoras at sail-away. I even bought a boa so I would be recognized. Is this specific to Freedom? Do other ships do anything similar? Just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
udamudda Posted January 30, 2017 #2 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Look up the Facebook page, Pink Boa Cruisers! It is a group of people who cruise on any cruise and take their pink boas, fedoras, etc. It is all about Fun, Feathers and Friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello Carol ~ I am sure I knew a few of those Pink Boa Cruisers on that sailing of Freedom. :) To answer your question no it is not specific to that ship but mostly Royal Caribbean. Often if there is a PTZtv webcam at the port the cam operators will zoom in on us at sail away so we can wave to family and friends. We do have a thread located here for any questions. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?p=51605585#post51605585 Thanks for asking and hope you will partake in the tradition and have fun with those feathers and friends. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has spread to other ships thanks to the efforts and enthusiasm of one of the founders.....Emmy!
