John Bull Posted March 22, 2018 #7 Share Posted March 22, 2018 More important than deck 5 or 6 is outside or outside-plus. Before taken over by Thomson this was a Costa ship, and some cabins are as small as I've ever seen on a ship. But Dream was stretched, with a new section in the middle. Those new cabins are much bigger & quoted as "outside-plus" - they're well worth the extra cost. Jim mentioned "mid-ships". Mebbe cos he was thinkin' "outside-plus", or mebbe because its more stable & more convenient. Whatever Jim was thinkin', mid-ships cabins are outside-plus so they tick both boxes. Deck 6 is sandwiched between cabins on the deck above & cabins on the deck below, so no noisy surprises. That ticks a third box :) JB :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a year or two out from cruising for land based hols so was off here for a while.Went on Discovery last year,nice ship but for us lacked something but hard to pinpoint what.It certainly didnt have the atmosphere and the friendliness of the likes of the Dream and the Maj to a lesser extent so that may well be that.Still enjoyed the Discovery though but were creatures of habit so back on the Dream in a few months time,if its the same as our numerous other cruises on her we,ll be happy.No matter,we,ll still enjoy our time.Presently no inclination to jump ship but never say never Apart from wee snippets I read on here not really been keeping up any great detail with Mein Schiff 2 saga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think thomson/tui/meralla have missed a trick there every where you go on an evening there is Music or some kind of show on. As for Mein Schiff 2, the germans are now keeping here and us mortals will have to do with?? have a pleasant read Mr Jim and have a nice week end RR Marella Cruises has revealed its Explorer 2 ship will be adult-only when it launches in May 2019.The line also said it would become an all-inclusive fleet, offer 11 new itineraries and seven ports of call from next summer. The decision to go all inclusive is expected to appeal to passengers who are new to cruise and younger, Marella said. Marella Explorer 2 will enter the fleet as a result of the ending of a Chinese joint venture between Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd and Chinese travel firm Ctrip. The vessel Golden Era earmarked for SkySea Cruise Line for the Chinese market will instead be bought by the Tui-owned UK line. The ship will launch as Marella Explorer 2 in 2019 following extensive renovation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
