Cruizin_PA Posted August 30 #26 Share Posted August 30 8 hours ago, catspaw1 said: So to clarify the November 16 TA sailing will be her first sail after dry dock? We are on that cruise so hope she gets out of dry dock in time. One never knows what other things are discovered when a ship goes into dry dock! Ask any countries Navy! Yes. It is to be a 2 week dry dock. Hopefully all goes well and your cruise leaves as scheduled. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have read about Parkwest, reserving the sky lounge on sea days for it special invitation- only auctions, that is correct. They are doing this for five cruises in a row, this is number three with two more to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oville Posted August 31 #36 Share Posted August 31 (edited) Cruisestitch, thanks so much for your posts. I’m enjoying following your cruises. Sorry for your missing the Sky Lounge, nothing we do personally but can understand the disappointment if you are into it. Thanks, Katie Edited August 31 by Oville Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I correct or not that they only use it during the day & evenings it’s open for the bands, etc. ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would rather NOT have to bring footstools or inflatable things. We’re on the upcoming TA. We’re on this sailing too. I don’t know what a hump balcony is but we’re in an AFT balcony on deck 6 right above the lifeboats. We have 2 chairs with adjustable backs and a small round table. We do not have any footstools. Edited August 31 by GabbyRose Edit to say we’re on this sailing too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JamieLogical Posted August 31 #46 Share Posted August 31 For years I have been bringing my own foot stool on cruises, because not every balcony or every cruise line provides them. This is the one I have and it works great. It is very compact when collapsed and easily fits in along the side of my carry-on roller bag: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07Y9CPV84/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&th=1&psc=1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfiemom Posted August 31 #47 Share Posted August 31 Thank you both for the footstool info. Some in hump (slant) cabin posted a pix with the chairs and footstools. Guess it wouldn’t hurt to purchase 2 of those foldable ones, just in case. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
