DUBIDUB2 Posted March 4, 2019 #1 Share Posted March 4, 2019 (edited) On harmony, is this allowed? I do hope so, else where is the darkest part of the ship to see the stars? Edited March 4, 2019 by DUBIDUB2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted March 4, 2019 #2 Share Posted March 4, 2019 (edited) Not on Harmony. On Oasis class ships the helipad is by invitation only. Edited March 4, 2019 by Ourusualbeach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisegirl1 Posted March 5, 2019 #3 Share Posted March 5, 2019 Radiance class sometimes allows it. A wonderful place to stargaze. It is hard to find a dark spot on Oasis class to stargaze. Actually - I don't think the helipad is ever open to the general public. We've been there in the daytime for an invited event. M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkkunk Posted March 5, 2019 #4 Share Posted March 5, 2019 Yes, the only time passengers are allowed on the Heli-pad on Oasis class is during the Suite sail away party. For passengers in GS and above and Pineapples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TravelerThom Posted March 5, 2019 #9 Share Posted March 5, 2019 14 hours ago, rkkunk said: the only time passengers are allowed on the Heli-pad on Oasis class is during the Suite sail away party This is an overly restrictive answer that is not always true. While Suite sail away party is probably the most common time, I have also seen yoga classes held there and I have been invited to sail away as a D+ (neither of these are a given, but they have occurred). The preceding answer “by invitation only” was correct. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pratique Posted March 5, 2019 #10 Share Posted March 5, 2019 Best place to stargaze is on the bridge wings (access via Solarium Deck 14). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisinghawg Posted March 5, 2019 #11 Share Posted March 5, 2019 My best place to stargaze is on my balcony with wine. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BecciBoo Posted March 5, 2019 #12 Share Posted March 5, 2019 I can never get that to work, our balcony always has too much light noise to see anything. I prefer the wings too. We have always had access to the helipad, both in the evening and during the day, I have pics to prove that. No one ever came to remove us...we did the "King of the world" thing on many ships. Not on Allure, but we were on the helipad to take photos during the day. If this is truly correct then it is a new rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njkruzer Posted March 5, 2019 #13 Share Posted March 5, 2019 We've been on helipad on Radiance class ships at night and during the day unless closed because of weather issues. Dh loves to take pictures there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is truly correct then it is a new rule. I was hoping they would open in as it makes no sense to close the ONLY dark place on the ship. It's wonderful. I can understand windy weather. I sneak up.. I have been kicked off once or twice and leave quietly, but I'll be there, lying low, gazing at the stars and appreciating life itself. Told tell anyone we told them so 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robinsj62 Posted March 7, 2019 #19 Share Posted March 7, 2019 I can’t speak for Harmony but the helipad was one of our favourite places on the Navigator OTS. Usually quiet in the evening and very dark and often windy. We took a portable speaker once and had an Argentine Tango under the stars right in the middle of the helipad. It was far too dark and windy but incredibly romantic. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not if your neighbor has all the lights on in the cabin, and their curtains opened. Or worse, their balcony light is on. M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
