Live Review from Adventure of the Seas October 14, 2017

[happychippy]

It's first come first serve. Show starts at 1;45. Doors opened at 1:20pm. There are two sides on the entrance so once doors open you can quickly get seats. Very Cool in here. I think I will just stay in here and watch all the shows. My Ohio mind set is not used to warm temperatures I just melt as soon as I walk out of my room. :)

One thing to note is that there are no cup holders in the seats here. There is a bar in here so I'm sure it's not a "no drink" policy

I've had to visit guest services a couple times this week, and there is a gentleman named Paul that is super nice and helpful. After the first evening of him helping me with my VOOM access, anytime I stop by Guest Services he comes over, greets me by name, shakes my hand and ask what he can help me with. Even when there is a line he always make me feel as if I'm the highest loyalty customer. Remarkable experience :).

This is helpful information for those of us with up coming cruises! Thank you so much for your review. Despite the travel headaches of getting to San Juan I am getting so excited for Saturday!!

Ice skating show was really great. At first it was hard to understand. Had a bit of different music through the decades. Really enjoyed it and would go back and watch it again. Sports Bar and Duck n Go Pub both have sports playing in the TV but the only thing on all the TVs was soccer. There is lots of shopping deals today like $10 port t shirts and jewelry sets.

Did you have to get your tickets in advance like other ships?

No, no advance reservation required for the shows on the Adventure of the Seas

Watched the sunset from the bridge, it is one of my top 5 places on the ship. The bridge shades were closed at sunset. After that I found the automated ice cream, always use a napkin or clothing to touch the handle, nobody "washie washie" before using that. Then to Promenade for more tea and ice water and on to the library to call and talk to family.

Was walking by the Duck n Go pub and saw the Drink Card is now at $75

 

The Promenade area is the happening place in the evenings. All the shops still have all their goodies out, nice bracelet sets for $20, port tshirts, bags, ties etc for $10 each.

 

I like the Promenade Cafe, they have my hot tea, fresh fruits, pastries, and sandwiches.

Show tonight was a Las Vegas style tribute show. Since the Shows are my favorite I criticize them the most. There are just 4 singers in the entertainment line on the ship which seems unusual. Lots of dancers. The 2 lady singers were good, loved their dresses. The 2 gentlemen singers were just okay to me. The past couple of cruises I've been on have had really good stage lighting and special effects, this ships entertainment does not. There are a lot of fun activities scheduled later tonight that sounds fun like the Silent Party, but they are held at 11:30pm and this country girl goes to bed by 10pm so she can be up by 6:00am. Nice day in Aruba tomorrow. Going to the RIU Antillas adults only All Inclusive and then some port shopping since we are docked until 11pm

It is in a corner across from the children's splash pad area.

Don’t they sell unlimited drink packages? I never saw anything like the sign 10 drinks for a set price.

The 10-drink card is not always sold, however when it is sold it usually shows up in the last half of the cruise.

Can you buy martinis or any drink with the card?

[keywest1]

Thanks so much for all the info! I'm finally getting excited about our AOS cruise this Saturday. Loving all the details you are

providing.

[Clarea]

Yes, the drink card has the same cocktail limits as the Deluxe Beveage package.

Thanks! That would be prefect for me if they sold it on the second or third day of the cruise!

Probably too early in the cruise, but ask at bars, you may luck out.

We are going on the 10/28 Adventure as a group and I am LOVING all this information that happychippy is posting, and all the comments. I glanced up at your status of posts and saw the 100,000+ club and was blown away by the number! I saw that you were the host, but still, over 113,000 posts is really quite impressive. Keep up the good work of putting the correct information out there for the rest of us, it is very helpful!:)
