Billiard table Radiance of the Seas

do you have to pay to use billiard table on radiance of the seas

No. They're free, or they were when I cruised on her a few years ago.

On Radiance right now and there are 2 of them in Colony Club on Deck 6. No cost to use. Only thing is that sometimes you have to leave when that area is used for some private function.

4 [emoji568]... plenty more to go[emoji16][emoji16][emoji16]

Just as an aside...

Do the billiard tables "roll? with the ship or do they have some sort of self levelling device .?

They're self levelling. The first of their kind ever installed on a ship. Very cool to watch.

I would suggest lying on top of it if anyone is prone to sea sickness... [emoji13]

It must be very cool to watch as it would not only have to cope with the roll from side to side , but also the pitch of the ship.:cool:

They do. Pitch & roll, but not yaw.

It can make things very interesting when lining up your shots. The table is leveling, but the deck you're standing on is not. One second you can be lining up with the table at waist level, only to find it up near your shoulders when you go to hit the cue ball a few seconds later.

Fascinating...I did a You tube search and found this clip. Its amazing to see the ship going up and down and the balls on the table not moving.

I believe a few tradesmen did just that during initial shakedown.

Its quite interesting when doing a long shot (ie one leg off the ground) and the table starts rising and don't stop....puts you right off. Same when taking a shot off the end of the table and you end up crouching down to take the shot.

Its a shame there not on other ships :(

I feel like booking a cruise on her just to have a game.

billiard tables LOL ...

sure you "could" play billiards or even snooker but they generally require a tux minus the jacket

just another example of the relaxation of the dress regulations ... heathens!!!

This is Royal, they never really did formal anyway.

Yes amazing to watch onboard...especially as you can see just how much the ship is actually moving but your not really feeling it...or noticing
