So far three cruises in the front room and nothing like that. More were including the interiors right behind them. On this particular cruise I’d say that boom I’ve heard 4 times.

I am sure.   This particular cruise I referred to was one of the “most interesting” cruises we have been on weather wise.  Head the booms all night long.

And you’re sure it was the waves?

I guess people like to line up. 14 days on the Vista and I never got a coffee from Java Blue,  always at the Ocean Plaza Bar. 😃

That will do it.   We had someone cruising with us going thru a tropical storm and he said he ended up on the floor in the middle of the night.  That would make it memorable.  

I have occasionally wondered if cruise lines should offer a few pirate themed rooms with ship hammocks rather than beds. Different kind of swingers.

No nothing like that. For my 25th cruise I get to apply 25% OBC to any future cruise. The one I’m talking about is the one I’m going to use that OBC on. And it was on my mind during room selection that I’ll get 25% back so it’s not my typical room.

 

Ahhhh I see, should have known only gamblers get comp cabins☹️ It's still a good perk to get to splurge on a new cabin type. I think I would like a Havana Cabana if I could splurge😁

I forgot to mention that may 1st the imax

movies changed from Civil War and Challengers to Fall Guy and Challengers. 

I only watch about 5 movies a year but Fall Guy looks just about dumb enough for me to enjoy.

 

Saw Barbenheimer last year. Both were great but you can guess which met my mandatory dumb threshold.

Makes it a whole different type of cruise.  Highly recommend it.

I am behind as you know I am sorta dealing with heavy personal issues but I have been meaning to mention that when I sailed Vista two years ago, we were also in an end forward cabin on a secret deck and our “high wind” sign never came down for 5 minutes the entire week, even when we were docked in Mexico with warm sunny days and no wind whatsoever. It was room 6206.

 

Therefore we commenced civil disobedience signwise roughly at the midpoint of the cruise and helped ourselves to the bench  whenever we felt like it. We weren’t the only ones as occasionally (rarely) we could hear someone head out there.

I'm booked on the Vista on Deck 6 in one of those cabins next year. Did your cabin have a sofa? Was it quiet? I was concerned being close to kids stuff. Usually pick as far aft as I can get for quiet, never stayed up front.

You need to get out more


I’m talking people I’ve talked to extensively. It’s only about 5 or 6 people/couples. All casino.

My room didn’t have a sofa or even an easy chair though there was more than ample floor space. Greg has a nice chair now but no idea if they smartened up and added to the Vista rooms. The sea boom sound was mostly at night on the first and last nights when cap’n was running full bore over open water to leave US soil behind and get us towards Central America and later the same in reverse.

 

Otherwise the room was extremely silent. I am a bit claustrophobic and loved the airy open floor plan and I liked the view from the window out over the deck during daylight. You have to close your curtains at night. Never saw any kids that way. Those rooms are all doubles I think so mostly adult couples.
