Liberty of the Seas - Cruise Compass - 5/1-5/8/2016 - Eastern

[YadaYadaJodi]

Okay, I'm new to this drive sharing thing. Let's see if this works!

I have uploaded scans of the Cruise Compasses for our Liberty of the Seas cruise last week (5/1-5/8/2016) from Galveston to Cozumel, Georgetown Grand Cayman, and Falmouth Jamaica. This cruise was the first this year of a reverse itinerary. Previous cruises had Jamaica as the 1st port and Cozumel as the last. This cruise also had the 2 full at sea days on Days 6 & 7 vs. Days 2 & 3.

Let me know if you have any problems or questions.

 

FYI - We had a fabulous time!! :D

Maybe I haven't figured it out yet, but so far I'm only seeing the first page of each day.

When you are viewing the 1st page scroll down. If you click on link to go right (or left) if will take you to the next Day.

A couple of notes - since this cruise they reversed the itinerary, there were at least a couple of things that are off. For instance:

 

Day 3 - Cozumel - It show the Drink Punch Card being offered. I had the Premium Beverage Package so I didn't check into it but I don't think they meant to offer this so early in the week. Previously Cozumel was Day 6 so I think they copied most things over and forgot to adjust the day for this offer.

 

Day 4 - Georgetown - They showed the dress code as Formal for this night but it was supposed to be casual. Again, I think they copied the Grand Cayman schedule from the previous itinerary when it was on Day 5. On our cruise it was actually moved to Day 6 which was an At Sea day.

I get an error message at the bottom of the screen that says "Whoops There was a problem loading more pages. Retrying ..."

 

I'll try a different browser.

 

EDIT: Same error with Firefox and Internet Explorer.

It worked for me earlier but I am getting the same message now too. If I click on the download button at the top it allows me to see all the pages though.

 

I will check on it later today and see if I get the same message. Maybe multiple people are trying to view it at the same time? I'm not sure.

[YadaYadaJodi]

I just tried it again and was back to being able to scroll down to see all the pages. Hopefully it was just a temporary glitch.

It's working fine for me. I can see all pages, all days. I guess I'm just special. :D

[wolfganghowell]

Yada - thanks so much for this. They don't show a pool band playing for Sailaway! Surely they had the band. Also, looks like you still had a 4:30 departure and we are now 4 pm so I am guessing many of the nightly things might advance 30 minutes like the casino opening.

 

Surprised Schooner Bar is open - we've never seen it open on embarkation day.

Working for me now too, thanks.

[wolfganghowell]

in general, it looks like they really cut back on the pool band on sea days. Grrr.

We were on this sailing, and it was changed to 4pm sail away.

We were in the new terminal. Told my husband there didn't seem to be a big difference to me. We had a suite, so went all the way to the right, then behind the wall to the escalator. We didn't use the tents.

Thanks a bunch .... just what I've been looking for! One question: If these are the actual Compasses you received, if the 10 Punch drink card was actually offered on the 3rd day, I would surmise they would have to honor it. DO YOU REMEMBER IF THAT WAS THE CASE? Also, guessing they could just make an announcement regarding a different FORMAL night.

 

Are these assumptions correct? Does anyone know? Thanks!

As far as the punch card on the 3rd day I can't answer you as I had the Premium Drink Package. I would imagine it would've been awfully hard not to have honored it since it was right there in writing though.

 

I don't recall any announcement about the change for the formal night. I actually hadn't noticed that Day 4 was listed as formal. I was wasn't looking for it to be until Day 5 or Day 6. I found out by accident when I called to cancel our MTD reservation time on Day 4. We had eaten a late lunch in Grand Cayman and cancelled our early dinner. The person who I spoke with at that time let me know the 2nd formal night was going to be on Friday.

 

Glad I didn't miss the lobster - it was delicious!

We received a text Thursday afternoon prior to our Sunday sailing that our departure time was moved up to 4:00pm. Check-in time: 11:00am to 3:00pm. I didn't look at my watch so I'm not sure what time we actually did leave.

 

They definitely "borrowed" too much from the Cruise Compass on the prior itinerary without reading it over. Another misprint example is the Day 6 Compass mentions "Tomorrow, in our first port...."

Thanks for posting!

Thanks for posting, we are doing this itinerary on July 24!

 

One mistake I see... Your title says "Eastern", when this is actually the Western itinerary. ;-)

[OSULabRat]

I have one additional question: Did you happen to keep (or remember) any documents listing the onboard prices of the various drink packages? TIA!

[nativetexan]

Thanks for posting. Hop you had a great trip!!

Sorry for any confusion. I was just trying to distinguish between the 2 current Liberty of the Seas routes. Of the 2, we were on the eastern one including Grand Cayman & Jamaica vs. her other route that includes Belize & Roatan. Think "Eastern Liberty OTS" not "Eastern Caribbean".

I'll look tomorrow to see if I have an advertisement. We had pre-purchased the Premium package for $49/day. We weren't ever offered the 20% discount. And I did look to see what the onboard price was and it was the same = $49/day.

 

Btw my DD wound up cancelling her drink package on Day 2. We were charged the $49/day for the 2 days vs. them going back and charging per drink for those days.

Thanks! They are offering the "20% off" thing for my July cruise on Liberty mow, but it is only down to $47 for the PP. They are claiming it is off the "onboard price". Haha

Thanks for sharing. I think sea days at the end of the cruise might be something I would like. Which do you prefer, beginning or end?

A couple of notes - since this cruise they reversed the itinerary, there were at least a couple of things that are off. For instance:

 

Day 3 - Cozumel - It show the Drink Punch Card being offered. I had the Premium Beverage Package so I didn't check into it but I don't think they meant to offer this so early in the week. Previously Cozumel was Day 6 so I think they copied most things over and forgot to adjust the day for this offer.

 

Day 4 - Georgetown - They showed the dress code as Formal for this night but it was supposed to be casual. Again, I think they copied the Grand Cayman schedule from the previous itinerary when it was on Day 5. On our cruise it was actually moved to Day 6 which was an At Sea day.

 

We were on the same sailing and noticed a number of mistakes as well. You think someone would go over the entire thing before printing them. :)
