Valor - Navigating Forward to Aft???

[Euroagogo]

I'm confused by all the different posts I read. For those who have been on this ship, on which decks can you walk from forward to aft and which ones can't you. From the brochure floor plan, it looks to me like you can't on Lobby Deck 3 but certainly all the passenger cabin decks you can via the inside corridors - right? Atlantic Deck 4 looks like you can from either inside (except when the dining rooms are closed) or outside any time. Promenade, Lido and Panorama too look totally accessible via interior or exterior. Am I seeing things?

 

Also, where are the passenger laundry rooms on Riviera and Empress decks?

 

Thanks.

That's pretty much right. Don't know for sure about the laundry rooms.

The first day is usually trying to find your way around the ship as in any resort. Next cruise I want to take my GPS maybe that will help.

If I remember correctly, you cannot go from one end to the other until deck 5 because of the dining rooms (there is not a back entrance to the Lincoln dining room, so you can't just cut through. On the Riveria deck, the laundry service were toward the middle of the ship. And I don't know my ship terms, but if you are looking at the front of ship, it is on left side of the ship.

I print out the deck plans, have then in my palm, get the ships map aboard, look at the placks by the elevator, read the signs, see which way the "water" is traveling and I still get lost.

You can't get from front to back on decks 3 & 4 because of the galley.

Juneau is the capital of Alaska, but did you know that you cannot drive there from anywhere?

Thanks for the info. I have a pretty good internal compass so with your info I think I'll do OK ...... well, we'll see. :)

When the dining rooms are closed, you're not supposed push/slide the doors open, but you usually can. Just observe some of the crew and you can find all kinds of short cuts.

 

If you don't get creative, decks 3 and 4 don't make for easy passage, but the rest do.

 

You should be able to print off the deck plan card from here:

Sometimes they fool you. e.g. Pick Liberty and you get Conquest deck plans.

Yes I saw that to. When it is a new ship they reference back to an older ship.

Actually I spaced on my original thought - is it still Monday? On those deck plans, I don't think the laundry room locations are labeled, whereas they are, sort of, on the deck plan card scan.
