Also, not very visible around the ship. Only saw her introducing the shows unlike Erin on the NA who was always out and about engaging with guests. You can see the trivia listed on the daily programs I have been posting is the CD Karlijn Verpalen? L. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do the same thing - I sit on the Right side of pool and never smell the cigarette smoke from that side; unless on rare occasion - wind is blowing it where you get a slight wift every now and then. But that RARELY happens - just sit on Right Side.... the Non-Smoking side 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My husband & I used them to relax in after dinner hour. I just can't remember how late we went. Something to look into as an alternative to whirlpool?

As long as they win, he will get to watch the game next Sunday. It’s a sea day for us, so it’s a win win situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the pool there is popcorn and also the NY Deli is open for pizza and other snacks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canadarocks Posted January 22, 2023 #89 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Well according to my Navigator the showtimes for our January 25th cruise are now changed to 7:30pm and 9:30pm. This change of course happened after the deadline for booking and/or changing restaurant reservations. I have never seen so many changes right before a cruise, and there is still no confirmation as to when the Gala Nights are! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruise Suzy Posted January 22, 2023 #90 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Once onboard, you might be able to switch dining reservations. In November, I was able to change the day of when something appeared on the Daily program that interfered with our dining reservation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare 0106 Posted January 22, 2023 #94 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Dressy nights will be added as the Navigator continues to update.

I would guess 1 Feb is an almost for sure. The other could be Jan 26 since are leaving HMC early and if not then for sure 29 Jan I forgot to mention yesterday - I asked one of the waiters and they said we currently have just over 2500 guests and today at the pool I counted 15 youngsters from 3 to about 14 years old all in the pool at the same time.

canadarocks Posted January 22, 2023 #96 Share Posted January 22, 2023 (edited) Thanks, narrowed it down the same way. Almost positive Feb 1 will be the 2nd. What is hilarious is that there are "Gala Night Instant Makeovers" on both Jan. 26 & Jan. 29th! Edited January 22, 2023 by canadarocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the Seaview Pool?? 15 is fine in the Lido pool, but that's just too many in Seaview even with their confusing/conflicting signage about kids in that pool!!! ~Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the lido pool so fine with kids. That was just to give an idea of how many youngsters are on the ship. BTW - I have seen some of the staff removing towels from chairs that were unattended for a period of time. Watching the Bills/Bengals around the pool this afternoon - lots of fans from both teams and they did have popcorn. Funny thing is they have run out of popcorn bags so you got a bowl and had to bring it back for refills. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they will do a quick makeover on one or two people and try to get you to book . My guess is the 29th and 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
