Anything that makes the Conquest special?

[tycup]

I have been on the Valor (Conquest's sister ship). Is there anything that sets the Conquest apart from the Valor? I know they have a very similar (some would say exact same) layout, but I didn't notice anything that set the two apart.

No, and that's a good thing. Conquest class is my favorite class of ship. The interior decorations will be different but that's about it. They both have 2.0 upgrades so there should be no difference.

Conquest is going into dry dock to get a serenity deck soon... that might be the only difference... Love the Conquest.

Nothing at all.

If you're into art and ship decor, the Valor has some great artwork. Its atrium is definitely one of the most striking and colorful.

This is a good question. I believe you are talking about the ceremonial coin per Marintime Tradition. I don't think you can find it because it is welded into the ships hull where you cannot see it or get to it. I think its the same on every ship.

Yes, and they put them on the ship where you can find them. I have found several before. Here's a few examples I have found. :)

I have not been on the Valor, but the Conquest also has a lot of artwork. Make sure to look up in the atrium at all of the artwork.

The theme on the Conquest is art from the Renaissance period

The adults only pool is now fair game for splashers and marco-polo yellers.

And the kids throwing footballs, baseballs, and anything else they can get their hands on while in the pool. :mad:

Better yet, send an email or letter to corporate. Make sure the people who can change things see your unhappiness.

what makes the conquest special is that you now get to swim in pee you do not ever have to be worry about sleeping on the chairs the kids will keep you entertained and awake .

you do not have to worry about the chair hogs as the kids are going to have them all with the towels on them while they swim in the hot tubs ... so no need to set your alarm ... really looking forward to my October cruise on the Glory as they have gave pool to the kids also ... enjoy ....

I also teach to support my cruising habit, I'm on Valor in late June. Deeply saddened by the fact that the aft (formerly) adult only pool will now be used as a family pool. I don't stay in the pool all day by any means, but I do enjoy a leisurely swim away from the shouting/throwing/general boisterousness.

I love to sit on the side with my feet in the water. Still can do that but it's going to be noisier just like work.

I actually believe the artwork is from the French Impressionistic Period. Some might think it is overdone. I actually found it fascinating. From the Cruise Critic Ship Review.....

 

"Stepping onto Carnival Conquest is a bit like stepping into a 19th-century French Impressionist's dreamscape. Illuminated Murano-glass flower sculptures adorn the ceilings, and hand-painted replicas of Degas' ballet studios and Toulouse-Lautrec's Parisian theaters accent the lounges and theaters, while the main restaurants tip their caps to Renoir's "Lunch at the Restaurant Fournaise" and Monet's "Water Lilies" paintings.

It's a surreal juxtaposition, the high-brow art referenced in every nook and cranny of the ship contrasting with the leave-your-pretensions-at-the-door atmosphere that comes with every Carnival cruise. Passengers on Conquest are ready to shake off the concerns of their everyday lives and just let go, relax and have fun. To have the best cruise experience, you've got to do the same."

Just read a post about the Aft adult pool on Conquest is going to be open to kids now. The only thing I didn't like about the Conquest was that it doesn't have a serenity deck, but at least they had that. Seems like they should have waited until after the upgrade to make that change ugh.

Love the way you put it LOL...not thrilled about that but nice Conquest will have Serenity. :(

No! :eek: :loudcry:They should have waited at least until after my cruise is done. We get on 6 days after you get off. I agree they should have waited until after dry dock for the Conquest since it does not have a Serenity area.

Indeed, this is bad news. I get on Conquest this Saturday and can't believe they changed the pool rules prior to getting Serenity.
