Guten Morgan @Germancruiser! Ich denke… the first picture is from near the theater entrance. The picture of the 2 chairs is from the sitting area outside Cellar Masters. The furnishings and the color schemes combine to give the public spaces a very nice appearance.Thank you und Guten Morgen - very nice to be greated in German- are you from Germany perhaps? Thanks yes- near the theater, where there was that table and the chairs. Infinity still has the old layout - well she never was revolutionized. Cellar Masters- yes indeed- thx for helping out- I really must say they changed Summit during that major refit almost beyong regocnition- but she looks really stunning.
-
Infinity got her refit a few weeks back- I was on board after the refit- she look and apeared in fantastic shape - considering her age.

Thank you for all those pictures- very interessting- I almost did not recognize the shop area on the revolutionized Summit. Pictures one and two I do not even know where that on board is???Looks nice though. I sailed Summit twice but in er Original livery.

An here is a voter for Infinity. Even though Silhouette is a great ship- sailed her a couple of times, I like the open prommenade deck and the more " cosy " feel about Millenium Class better. Infinity is not only in great ship- she was in Drydock a couple of weeks ago and all has been reupholstered and so on. Wonderful ship- just debarked 4 weeks ago. Also Athens roundtrip. Even though it is decided I wanted to mention it.

Thanks for posting those great pictures. To my delight I saw that the prommenade deck of QA is indeed NOT blocked by the liveboats- well at least it looks like it when looking at the picture on post 28. Can´t wait to see for sure if that is the case.

Can´t wait to see the first pictures of the refurb of Connie! One of my favorite Milli- Class ships- oh well I like them- really. LOL.

Thanks for taking us along. It has been 20 years since we sailed Radiance. I was a big fan of RCI- when there ships started to get " out of hand"- means bigger and bigger- biggest- they where just no longer for me. I stopped after Voyager of the Seas- even that I found to big. LOL.
Radiance Class ships are my favorite with Royal. Colony Club esp. is a great place to read. I am now sailing X or Cunard. Always fond memories of my fist - back then- biggest ships out there, which was Grandeur and all the Vision Class ships- they where called " Megaliners" back then...!

Wonderful- thank you!

Thank you for taking us along. My last voyage on Vision was back in 1999- a Transcanal cruise. Very fond memories. Interessting to see the changes inside. She looks very well kept.

One never ceast to learn. I had no idea what a "Miami Vice" is- other then the series of the 80´s when we all wanted look like good Don and dressed the part. A drink and nice looking one too, thx.

I never have had any issues with kids running wild with Cunard- different Story with Royal- but there it is something one suspects- they are more built for family´s than any ship of Cunard. The kids are not to blame- it´s the parents who are responsible - which has to do with the different upbringing - some parents really should " run a tighter ship " with their kids- but thats it is not a topic for CC- lol.

Thank you for that wonderful review and the nice pictures. I had to read twice when I read that the Captain took the stage- never heard of Capt. Kirk. Silhouette being my favorite S- Class vessel- sailed her many times.

I agree- why should that not be posted here? There other topics coming to mind that I deem not worth posting- lol.

Once on a voyage to New York a fellow traveller - around my age ( mid 50s) - told me - that he knows this ship is gods anteroom- but he so loves to travel on board Mary. That came to mind when read that article. I just answered - well we both are not really spring chickens anymore- LOL and both of us had a good laugh about it. The truth is that many many people thing ship voyages are for the nearly departed. I have never heard of the guy who wrote that articel but I liked the articel nevetheless. About his garments- well if you want meet exentrics- the Mary is the ship to go. And yes- I am triffle exentric as well. LOL.
What a delicate bunch of humans are out there- one word wrong and one is put either in that or in that cupboard ( sexism- ageism...and so on my ) !

I did not know the Sun -but now I do. LOL. What a sensation- people paniced- I dout that anyone above could smell anything.
Good that we have the first hand report to put things in order. Se.. sales ( sensation I mean of course😁) Good that we have a firt hand report. The only thing that I can imagine is that wake up call. We had that once just the night before entering NY- at around 1am or so. Medical evacuation. The first thing Cap. Hasmi told us was that everything with ship was fine. He just wanted to explain why we stopped ( which I did not even notice before) .

What a wonderful entertaining topic that has become- very funny, indeed. Even though I can imagine why bring that thing to get more outlets- but the other... hm- maybe cruise lines should printing that they offer cruises and not time on a camp ground. Well handcuffs... but that´s a different story alltogether...!

Sloopy maintenance possibly- the " Edgesation" or whatever they called is was years ago- even before Covid struck.

I know that may not go down well with fans of the old QE2. I sailed her once- because I absoulley needed to sail on board the Legend once- well before QM2 was on the horizon.
What a gasthly ship- strange layout, confusing staircases. They tried very hard to convert the ugly, plastic, horendous interior of the 60´s to change into something more " liner like"!
Alone that Queens Room- in the first livery- puh... then the midships lounge in it´s first appreance...! The location of the Queens Room- long curtains at the side to shield it from the inside promenade. I could go on and on..! This one week was quite enough. So yes- I rather like what I saw of QA so far- and I have not yet forgiven Cunard for taking away the promenade deck- lol.

One should ignore those hypocrites for bashing around for being curious. Curiosity is in the human nature- otherwise we would still live in the tree´s! I - myself are always curious. LOL. Hope they could help the poor passenger who needed the blood.

This rendering of the Carinthia Lounge is really stunning- great views - which Cunard ships are famous for. I need to figure out a voyage with as many sea days as possible- if not a TA.
-
Thanks NE John- I just wanted to write exactly that- Winter Garden was rather gloomy and uninviting- in fact the only lounge I really did not like when I first sailed Mary in 2008.
TJ- oh yes- my favorite X- ships are also Millenium Class- also they have a propper promenade deck- if not going around - always great to walk along an be " in touch" with the Sea.
The chairs have all been replaced- and that was high time they did that. I thought maybe they would reupholster them- but I saw they exchanged them all.

Thank you so much for sharing those wonderful pictures of my favorite ship. I, too, came from Celebrity ( starting with them in 2001) - I much prefer the quite and classy athmosphere on board Cunard ships- esp. of course QM2. I still put in the occaisonall voyage with X- but Cunard is now ny choice. For the first time I saw that they really did a great job in the last dry dock, esp. the Dining Room chairs and Carinthia have been in dire need of an update- and they got it- nicely done, too.

Oh, what´s wrong with her elevators? Thx.

I absolutley do NOT GO GREEN! Yes- I want my stateroom service twice a day. Yes I want my towels changed daily. I don´t care about any points or whatever. When I am a honest Green Person- I do not go on cruises. In my book this "' Go Green" nonsense is just to save the cruise line some bucks and has nil consequences for anything " Green"!
I also tip the stateroom attendant extra- if it is earned- if not- it´s just the standart tip.

Oh dear what a tragedy that is. The possibility that he took matters in his own hands can very well be true. Having no closer makes the loss, the mourning even harder to cope with.
