Hi, I've only cruised 5 times and this is the first time I've posted on C/C so excuse me if I'm posting in the wrong place or the answer to my question is obvious.

We're going on R/C's Navigator of the Seas in a few weeks and I've been seeing things about 'inline skating' on this ship. Theres a 4 year old video on YouTube showing skating on the sports deck, but I know Navigators undergone some changes recently. Does anyone know if the inline skating is still running please? I want to know so I can decide if to take my skates with me. Thanks.

True Bob, I was thinking inline skating might be 24/7 while ice skating is only a couple of 1/2 hour sessions in a week. I've ice skated on Independence . Just as I was getting used to it they told me to slow down. Plus, ice is cold, and very hard when you fall!

Its a pity they dont allow inline skating on the running track for half an hour in the morning or evening when its not busy.

Past Cruises:

Independence -Transatlantic to UK ( twice)

Millenium - Canada to Japan via Dutch Harbour and Japan

Quantum Inaugural -Transatlantic to New Jersey

Very true about the limuited opportunity to ice skate. I suspect that with the addition of the Flowrider, they just didn't have enough room for the inline skating track.

I am glad they removed it on the Navigator. One of the problems we encountered was the number of people (especially teens) who couldn't skate very well on a moving ship. Also passengers had to get from their cabin to the upper deck - corridors were a problem - even if it wasn't a lot of people; only takes one to cause a problem!
