Or at least yon generic balcony. That would work. I haven't been reduced to washing dishes in the galley just yet. ;)

"AquaTheater Suite –

I wonder what you are going to be able to stock in your "outdoor bar"? :D

[FitzLA]

I see one mistake. As of right now, they have only unveiled 3 neighborhoods, not 4. Central Park, Boardwalk (which includes Aqua Theater) and Royal Promenade.

 

Other than that, it's all the same info that is in the brochure that I have.

[janetz]

How many "pools" are on this ship? :)

[FitzLA]

How many "pools" are on this ship? :)

 

No body knows yet. But I am guessing at least 4. Two main pools (probably) one solarium pool and the Aqua Theater is a pool during the day that anyone can use. And if they have something like the h20 zone, like on Freedom, that could mean another pool (or two). They would need all those pools for all those people.

[crusinmama06]

The jetted tub for 2 on the grand suite balcony????

 

Am I reading that right?

 

Hey Tim, maybe we picked a GS too soon....we should have waited for Oasis! :eek:

[deb154]

Just wondering if Central Park will include smelly musicians with their instrument cases open looking for a tip?

Also, will there be vagrants and muggers (just kidding)?

We live in the NYC metro area, so just checking for realism value.:rolleyes:

Lets just get a Royal Loft suite and share it? I think we will get along. lol. :D ;)

[crusinmama06]

Why stop there? It says that the Royal Loft Suite can connect to the Crown Loft Suite, so let's just get both. :D

 

We don't want to crowd ourselves in with a measly 1,524 sq feet now do we? :eek:

Nah, this is a vacation, not a reality simulator. That wouldn't be any fun at all! Might as well be at work!

 

I suppose they could get an engine mechanic to come up and pass gas for a while if you're feeling really homesick though.

:D:D

 

(Horribly, bad joke above. Not to be taken internally, or with any amount of seriousness at all. Best with copious amounts of flammable beverages. The more flammable, the better. Enjoy irresponsibly.)

Okay, lets just go for it. They maybe I can bring my nephew too. :D Maybe we should get the two connecting Sky Loft Suites too?

[Elizanessie]

I think the difference in this news is the name change rule which is different from what was originally reported last month.

 

One unique Crown and Anchor membership number per reservation (one stateroom) per sail date.

• Reservations where a family is indicated will be handled on a case by case basis.
  
• Deposits are required at the time of booking. Temporary same-day holds can be placed on a reservation for Travel Agents. This rule is the same as apply for Travel Agents for a ‘one-day or two-day sale’.
  
• For name changes, one name must remain the same for the life of the reservation. This is the regular ‘no name change’ rule applied to reservations. Double name changes are not permitted.

[J-Hawk]

What are the prices!

[FitzLA]

What are the prices!

 

Won't find out until bookings open.

[cruiserbryce]

notr knowing prices is what is keeping us shopping around...I wish the info would come out so we could start making some plans

Thank goodness for THAT clarification! I can book for myself and two offspring, and if one or the other can't go, I still have my cabin! (and room for a friend or two! ;))

or my lazy river;)

[FitzLA]

I have it all planned out now. :D You know how the pools are going to be on top with a pool on each side of Central Park with bridges. And aft of those pools, there is still room (like where h20 zone is on Freedom) to have a h20 zone on one side (with slides this time) and a lazy river on the other side. YAY! We can only hope!

[chrystine]

The jetted tub for 2 on the grand suite balcony????

 

Am I reading that right?

 

 

I was wondering the exact same thing. Seems somewhat odd that a grand suite would have a jetted tub on the balcony. Perhaps they mean jetted tub in the bathroom? If they are on the balcony, this might be my category of choice- if I can afford it that is lol :)

I love the way you think!

I read that too:D , but then realized that it prob means a jetted tub in the bathroom....:rolleyes:

[cruisnfool]

From the pics it looks like we will lose all those coveted aft cabins on the Oasis.

I was at my TA today to make payment on my Cancun trip today .She showed me the new RC Oasis book and I was sold. She said that all dimond plus & crown&anchor members can book on 8/21/08... All crown & anchor members can book on 8/28/08 and bookings will be open to the public on 9/3/08.So you know where I will be on 9/3/08..At the TA's door step.I have always gone on Carnival but just one look at this wonder on the water and I can see it is time to try RC. Carnival has the new Splender due out next year but it looks like the same old same old. Look out RC NANA'S on the way!!!
