70s Disco Night is tonight (night 7) in vortex 

 

I'd love to hear details about Disco Night...did passengers pull out their old bellbottoms and peace sign necklaces?

In the past Jewel held the 70's Disco Night in the Centrum, which was always crowded. Let us know if Vortex was crowded.

Could you find out who the Captain and Cruise Director will be on the 3/29 Jewel Transatlantic? Thank you.

My fault - the disco night was in centrum.  Sorry we left before it started so I don’t have any details.

BTW - Centrum was crowded even before disco night started.

Is there a thermal suite in the spa with ceramic heated loungers and saunas and steam room  like the one on the Serenade deck 11?

Thanks.

I just looked at your signature (I couldn't previously on my iphone)

You were on Jewel in 2015... the thermal spa no longer exists as this is where the new 11th deck balcony cabins were added during her 2016 drydock

Are there curtain room dividers in the inside cabins on Jewel? I thought I had seen some pictures with curtains but now when I look it looks like there aren't. If not,  will magnet hooks work from the ceiling to hang a curtain?

I will be on the 16 night Panama Canal cruise.  Being vegetarian I understand that an Indian menu is offered in the main dining room for evening meals.  Would appreciate receiving comments from cruisers who have eaten from the Indian menu.  Also, if any posters have menus could you post them.  Thank you.

No experience with inside cabins but magnetic hooks will work on the ceiling and walls.

If anyone has photos of bar prices/drinks I’d love to see please?  Also if in the WJ for breakfast or lunch can we still request a speciality coffee or fresh orange juice?

This was one of the menus from the Nov TA, the entrees changed daily (and maybe dessert) the rest stayed the same. Both DH and I ate from it several times and the food was generally good, I did have a lamb dish one night that was very fatty. It was nice to have something a bit more spicy and with more flavour than most cruise food, I often find the food on ships very bland.

I don't think Capt Dustin Castelsky will be the captain For the TA as he started his current 10 week rotation 1-6-19,  Capt Trym Selvag should be the Captain

How does the dining room operate for dinner on Jewel? Is one floor for traditional and one for MTD, or by side?

Deck 4 was traditional.

 MyTime was deck 5 with signs for guests with reservation or without.  I would highly recommend making reservations.

Thanks. We have early traditional, I think it's 6pm. I like having the same servers every night. I've had both good and bad experiences with being able to get that with MTD so I like to book traditional if available.

Do they have a section for suite guests around the main pool?

Radiance class ships do not have a suite area around the pool.

Someone said Alex is leaving after this cruise. Think he was just filling in for Simone
