I was told refunds would come Apr 8 but I have not seen anything. All refunds have been sent. It's up to your bank when they post to your account. I received mine 2 days ago.

TravisP Posted April 9, 2019 #1328 Share Posted April 9, 2019 No way I would let not having the Aquatheater open ruin my vacation. Tons more to do on the ship. I would much rather cruise without aquatheater than have it canceled because the aquatheater was not 100% ready yet. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdjaguar Posted April 9, 2019 #1329 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Looking at the port-heavy schedule (along with extended travel times to Florence/Rome/Capri etc), I doubt we will even notice if the AquaTheater is open or closed. (Though I am saddened RCL stopped the Belly-Flop contests. Is nothing sacred?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why notify people 2 months out of something that may be resolved in a couple weeks? Each week we will probably see a new round of notifications until its fixed. Well, none of these are 2 months out... That said, you might be right. I'll just keep checking the ole mailbox. Personally, I'm not losing any sleep over this. If RCI can't get this squared by 5/26 then I'd be surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reallyitsmema Posted April 9, 2019 #1333 Share Posted April 9, 2019 2 hours ago, twangster said: I don't think that is an option because it is the muster station for hundreds of guests. It isn't so easy as to say just go muster somewhere else. Changing four muster station locations for several hundred guests is not insignificant. The cruise line has changed the muster station for those in the aqua theater in the past due to thunderstorms, so it can be done. They have crew with signs labeled G1, G2, G3 and G4 standing in the new areas and other crew members standing at the entrance of the Boardwalk directing people to the correct area and the crew members who are scanning sea passes. One group meets in the photo area on deck 6, one in the Schooner Bar, and the two other groups meet in the covered area of the Boardwalk on either side of the unfinished carousel horses prior to the Carousel itself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShillyShally Posted April 9, 2019 #1334 Share Posted April 9, 2019 31 minutes ago, Ourusualbeach said: I much preferred the Aquatheatre. Hard to get a spot that you can see very well up by the pool. At the Aquatheatre everyone had a great view. Agreed, also that they have seats - I can't stand as long as I want to anymore while my knee is still healing so if a seat isn't available, and often at the pool deck if you sit you can't see, I'm not as interested.

There were safety concerns aS there are cubbyholes that the scuba divers use to provide support for the aqua show. The fear is that someone could get disoriented and get stuck in there. The bellyflop competitions are held held at one of the pools. Thanks! I last cruised Oasis exactly a year ago this month. It's possible I might have skipped the belly-flop contest.

ptf2009 Posted April 9, 2019 #1342 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Okay a little off topic, but just thinking positively about our May 12 cruise. Does anyone have any idea how much we should expect to pay for transportation from the port to the hotel in Barcelona or the best mode of transportation? Also, from an airport hotel to the port? Thank you for the info info advance:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royal certainly does - they have a virtual fireworks display on some ships (Quantum class, VERY impressive use of the Two70 theater). I can just imagine them using that wall for a Yule Log display during the winter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be under 25 euros within the city is my recollection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing I see that could possibly not be fixed by then would be the TV's and aquatheater elevator. And thats only if they are one off's and have to be custom built. Even then, there are probably workarounds that would let them do some sort of show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fly in a day earlier than my daughter. I located Suntransfers through Trip Advisor and they were very prompt, and have great reviews 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
