Your last picture is looking aft above the pool bar in the area that would be the indoor pool bar on her sisters. You can see the gondola of North Star above in it's parked position. I don't think that is where the screen is claimed to be. In your other photos yes. It appears the renderings show an outdoor screen in the covered area forward of the pool in what would be the indoor pool area on her sisters. Green arrow below.

generichandle Posted February 16, 2021 #1103 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Hmm, I looked up this ship on a certain online TA website that give stats to all lines. This ship has over 1,000,000 LESS square feet of surface aboard, and yet is show as holding 200 more passengers than Allure Of The Seas. Allure new seemed crowded. This one look likely to be. JMHO.

Rare crewsweeper Posted February 16, 2021 #1104 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Hmmm.. Here's the links to RCL's Fact Sheets on these two. Allure is bigger. And carries more passengers. https://www.royalcaribbeanpresscenter.com/fact-sheet/20/allure-of-the-seas/ https://www.royalcaribbeanpresscenter.com/fact-sheet/33/odyssey-of-the-seas/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

generichandle Posted February 16, 2021 #1106 Share Posted February 16, 2021 OK; Allure: 4,593,690 sq ft with 5484 standard guests Odyssey: 2,458,080 sq ft with 4198 standard guests This according to site offered above. Both are huge, but Allure almost twice the floor space on 18 decks as Odyssey on 16 decks, with only about 25% more guests. I tried to say Allure never felt crowded. My math was just multiplication of L x W x Decks. Anyway you look at it, both are impressive examples of that old 'Jaws' line "we're gonna need a bigger boat".

Across multiple cruise lines we see time and again that you can not simply boil it down to a space ratio equation. Some ships flow very well and other ships are poorly designed. A larger ship with a poor design does not equate to a better passenger experience. I'm not saying that Allure is poorly designed, far from it, but other cruise lines have large ships that don't work nearly as well as Quantum class. It's about a lot more than simple math can represent. Edited February 17, 2021 by twangster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tall-Cruiser Posted February 22, 2021 #1117 Share Posted February 22, 2021 @Lloyd555- Thanks for sharing. Those night shots you posted Friday and yesterday are really nice. The big cat and it’s reflection on the SeaPlex pods is also cool. Odyssey is looking good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
