pedirn Posted April 25, 2017 #3 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I didn't think the Emerald/Ruby/Crown....all sister ships...had an indoor pool. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

satxdiver Posted April 25, 2017 #5 Share Posted April 25, 2017 The Emerald as well as the sister ships Ruby and Crown do not have a covered pool. Only the original Grand class ships have the one covered pool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill B Posted April 25, 2017 #6 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Sorry... I apologize. I've been on the Emerald and could have sworn one of the pools had a cover. I just looked at the deck plans, and sure enough, none of them are covered! :o:o Don't believe everything you read on the internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrak Posted April 25, 2017 #7 Share Posted April 25, 2017 It's a tad unfortunate as I love to sit and read on the deck just above the covered pool on the Grand class ships. We have 28 days on Emerald coming up in October so I guess I'll just have to "suffer". ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phabric Posted April 25, 2017 Author #8 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I was on the Grand and know it had a retractable roof, I was not sure which other ship had it. What about the Sapphire's pool? Which ships are in the Grand class? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phabric Posted April 25, 2017 Author #10 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Princess web site has your information Princess web site does not list the ships in different classes like RC list their ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare OzKiwiJJ Posted April 26, 2017 #11 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Princess web site does not list the ships in different classes like RC list their ships. Wikipedia does. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Cruises And if you look here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand-class_cruise_ship it breaks the Grand Class down into it's subclasses.

Thrak Posted April 26, 2017 #15 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Wikipedia (not always the most accurate info) breaks the ships down into these classes: Royal Class Royal Princess 2013 Regal Princess 2014 Majestic Princess 2016 Caribbean Class Caribbean Princess 2004 Crown Class Crown Princess 2006 Emerald Princess 2007 Ruby Princess 2008 Gem Class Diamond Princess 2004 Sapphire Princess 2004 Coral Class Coral Princess 2002 Island Princess 2003 Grand Class Grand Princess 1998 Golden Princess 2001 Star Princess 2002 Sun Class Sun Princess 1995 Dawn Princess 1997 Sea Princess 1998 R Class Ocean Princess 1999 Pacific Princess 1999 This breakdown can now be endlessly disputed. ;p (Obviously not all ships listed are still part of the fleet.)

I am also going on the Sapphire July 2018 to Norwegian Fjords, the ship shows an indoor pool, might go swimming. I went to Alaska from Vancouver around the 24th of September a few years ago and the weather was so warm the first couple of days that we went in the outdoor pool and then sat in the hot tub.

satxdiver Posted April 17, 2018 #17 Share Posted April 17, 2018 We were on the Ruby last August on a r/t from Seattle. It was warm and there were pax using the pool. When we visited Glacier Bay, many were on the top deck taking pictures in tshirts and shorts it was so warm. It is hard to out guess mother nature.
