SilvertoGold Posted February 24, 2018 #3 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Very classy looking and hard to miss for some, as the signs on the walls are. When first cruising, I used to have to look out the window to figure out which way was "forward" by seeing which way the ship was moving. This is easier! "Port": will some mistake that for its other meaning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Copper10-8 Posted February 24, 2018 #6 Share Posted February 24, 2018 "Port": will some mistake that for its other meaning? A Portuguese sweet red wine or a town or city with a harbor or access to navigable water where ships load or unload? Confusion will reign ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruising-along Posted February 24, 2018 #7 Share Posted February 24, 2018 I love it! I'm "directionally challenged" so that would help me immensely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Crew News Posted February 24, 2018 #9 Share Posted February 24, 2018 If you are ever disoriented when departing a HAL elevator on the stateroom floors, look for the furniture or the stairs. Furniture is always at the aft direction and the stairways on the forward side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
summer slope Posted February 24, 2018 #10 Share Posted February 24, 2018 I'm pleased they are doing that also, since it takes a few days to figure out directions. But seeing port on the starboard side of the picture of the ship would confuse me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ski ww Posted February 24, 2018 #11 Share Posted February 24, 2018 That's different, thanks for sharing. Hope you figure out the problem so you can post more photos. Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djhsolara Posted February 24, 2018 Author #14 Share Posted February 24, 2018 There must be a conspiracy. I have tried to post my other NA photos and keep getting an error message from CC.

OlsSalt Posted February 24, 2018 #15 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Just boarded NA and I promised to take photos to share: Now in the stateroom passageways so you don’t get lost: [ATTACH]415138[/ATTACH] Sent from my iPhone using Forums Wow, so they do listen to our survey comments after all. I mention this every time - please give me some directional markers. Which way am I going when i go out the door or moving around the ship. Finally figured out food is in back and stage is in front - but that took at least a few hundred days. Now if they finally eliminate the totally symmetric foyer decor, I will be even happier when I get off the elevators. I love it when I can find at least one decor item that is directional - even those grotesque "blue boy" benches once I saw they were not totally symmetric - one of those little plaster boys would always show me the way to go home.

thinfool Posted February 24, 2018 #16 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Our Zuiderdam trip in January had those....I didn't realize they were brand new. Great idea! And on that cruise the day carpets in the elevators were correct everyday....in contrast to one cruise where the wrong day was used....everyone was in chaos till it was fixed.

Furniture is always at the aft direction and the stairways on the forward side. That is one thing that I really liked about our Zaandam cruise. I always knew which side was starboard. I didn't realize it was that way on all HAL ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
