Rare cruisinghawg Posted November 18, 2018 #1 Share Posted November 18, 2018 Just sailed today on Indy and have seen no issues. Well except they didn't have prime rib in Chops. Ask any question and I will try to answer. And I can see why some do not like this ship....and it has nothing to do with the ship or class of ship.

ubish00 Posted November 18, 2018 #2 Share Posted November 18, 2018 You have me curious. We are cruising on the Indy in a few weeks. Why do you see some people do not like the ship? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boontj2003 Posted November 18, 2018 #3 Share Posted November 18, 2018 We sailed on Indy prior to the changes. I personally didn't care for the layout of the ship. We seemed to always have to go thru the casino. Nothing stood out with the staff but to me, there is no such thing as a bad cruise!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you see some people do not like the ship? Some on here have suggested that this ship is lacking in some areas. This class is just a larger version of Voyager class. But it deploys in Europe so the personnel are more accustomed to accommodating that clientele. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is our first time on this class and the layout is confusing. Yes deck four is not laid out very well. When you have the Schooner bar the casino then Playmakers all in a row that deck can be eliminated by some people. My wife for instance is very allergic to cigarette smoke so the Schooner and Playmakers are off limits for us. To get to the diamond lounge you can only access floor 14 in 1 bank of elevators. The staff is great and the ship is clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are in a Junior Suite and were allowed to sit and board with the suites. No pinnacles on this sailing. Diamond lounge is nice but you can only get specialty coffee.

detroitavant Posted November 18, 2018 #15 Share Posted November 18, 2018 I'm curious how crowded it feels, I've seen a lot of comments about it since they added so many new rooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruisinghawg Posted November 18, 2018 Author #19 Share Posted November 18, 2018 Just now, Monty11 said: How much is the Drink Package on board? I think it is 68 a day. However at some point they may offer a drink card for the remainder of the cruise. Not sure about this as it is just a 5 day cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuCruise Posted November 18, 2018 #22 Share Posted November 18, 2018 We're sailing Indy in 2.5 weeks. Can't wait! Just wondering when/what time (s) Grease is playing on your cruise? We're on 4 day so may be different but good to get an idea. Enjoy your cruise? Ship looks great! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acegolfer25 Posted November 18, 2018 #23 Share Posted November 18, 2018 Any websites/internet app that are backdoor accessible without paying for internet? For example, discord app works in Harmony without the internet package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
