Mkehlb Posted November 7, 2016 #2952 Share Posted November 7, 2016 We will be sailing on FOTS in January. This is our first RCCL cruise. One of my favorite cruise treats is purchasing a week long spa pass to enjoy saunas, steam rooms, thalassotherapy pools, etc. Is anything like this available on FOTS? IF so, where and when do I purchase it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trajan Posted November 7, 2016 #2954 Share Posted November 7, 2016 Feb/March of 2017 Good timing; we can finish our first cruise on the Freedom and se if we are ready to do it again. Thanks ourusualbeach! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkrosesdeb Posted November 7, 2016 #2955 Share Posted November 7, 2016 No thalassotherapy pool on Freedom. The sauna & steam are in the changing rooms in the gym. Not used very often but big and I enjoy them every cruise. Also, nice towels and showers in there also. All free at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waterlegs Posted November 7, 2016 #2956 Share Posted November 7, 2016 Ship time is the time zone of the departure port. In Freedom's case it is EST when sailing from Florida. All itineraries reference ship time. For example when Freedom ports somewhere like Cozumel, the local time will be 1-2 hours behind ship time (depending on DST) so you should make sure your watch or phone stays on ship time because if the ship leaves Cozumel at 4pm ship time and you get to back to the port at 4pm Cozumel time, Freedom will be long gone and as the captain says, you should then have iTunes play "All By Myself"... :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Thanks a million. Very clear now. We are on a Western Med cruise so don't think there is any time difference between all the ports but will double check that.

This is something the cruise directors usually mention in their evening show on the TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grumpus Posted November 8, 2016 #2958 Share Posted November 8, 2016 We're on the 12/4 sailing....6 days. Anyone know the entertainment schedule.? Thx We are aboard 2-weeks before you. The following is the entertainment staff I was told will be on board during my week: Alfred and Marina Ice Act – Star Act Andy Cruickshank Schooner Bar Enterainer James Brown Pub Guitarist Michele Balan Comedian Drew Thomas Magic Illusionist Shades of Buble Vocal Group Ross Bennett Comedian Typically many of the entertainment stays aboard and performs multiple weeks, so it's a possibility you'll have some of these people on your sailing as well.

BHannis Posted November 10, 2016 #2959 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Does anybody know if there's a place to print things onboard, like a business center or similar? Sent from my SM-G920V using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted November 10, 2016 #2960 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Does anybody know if there's a place to print things onboard, like a business center or similar? There is a printer in the same area as the guest computers. You can print to it from the guest computers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkrosesdeb Posted November 11, 2016 #2961 Share Posted November 11, 2016 I can't remember if someone answered this already and I cannot find anything when I do the search. Is Sabor open on Freedom at embarkation? I had seen a post about someone saying the had lunch in Sabor on embarkation day but my old brain can't remember which ship!

I don't remember, but there was a guy making Quac on the promenade when you walk in, we made a reservation with him, he will probably know. If its open, I'll bet there won't be a lot there. A good alternative to the WJ rush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkrosesdeb Posted November 11, 2016 #2963 Share Posted November 11, 2016 That's what I was thinking also. We have done Giovanni's on embarkation on Oasis & Allure but I heard that is not an option on Freedom. I like the quieter venue to start us off on a more mellow note. It is really terrible though, every yr. my memory gets shorter We have been on Freedom 2x already and I could have sworn we had lunch in Giovanni's on embarkation day and I guess it must have been on Oasis because everyone on here told me it couldn't be Freedom. Sabor was not on Freedom last time we cruised on her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinkrosesdeb Posted November 12, 2016 #2965 Share Posted November 12, 2016 Last time we sailed Freedom JR's was not open at embarkation. Good to know...THANKS Deb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkrosesdeb Posted November 12, 2016 #2966 Share Posted November 12, 2016 We are sailing on Freedom 1/7/17 and I just went into our cruise planner to book some dining. The menu for Giovanni's is still showing the 8oz filet. I know their website is known for being wrong so can a recent cruiser chime in on this? Is there still filet on the menu or not? It was seriously our best dinner ever and I will miss it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klombar Posted November 13, 2016 #2971 Share Posted November 13, 2016 Looks like freedom is getting all new deck chairs today! We saw them being loaded yesterday as we were getting off. Someone said they are replacing the old plastic strap lounges with the mesh lounges. That will be a nice change! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's correct, they're very nice mesh loungers- a great upgrade from the plastic ones. I'll try to snap a picture of one later.

The new ones on Harmony are a different color, but the same type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
