Enchantment is a great ship..heading back on her for a 5th time in January.
 
But she is an older class and style so I don't think you'll see those big shows ever come to her.
 
As for more restaurants, I don't know. Even Majesty has a Johnny Rockets but not on EoS so I am not sure.
 
That being said...there is something about these ships being kept the way they were through their history that I enjoy.
 
I like having the choice of doing newer/modern/shows/big or doing the old school way.....lol

I don't think you would go wrong with either. I've been to many of those places, but not concurrently on a cruise. Those itineraries are mouth watering on either ship. I love the train to Paris idea, but beware that the cost to go up to the top of the Eiffel Tower may well be more than the train ticket. I paid a fortune getting my family to the top a couple years ago.

I was begging for mercy after eating so many appetizers and sides...i had to take my desert back to the room and eat it for breakfast the next day! Jane

Absolutely.  This is a hidden gem

From the podcast....
 
Order two appetizers and two desserts in the MDR each evening....

Thanks to all of you for your information. I now have a Freedom cruise booked. It sound like a wonderful ship.

We have PF, the family panoramic that sleeps 6

As of last night ..... Get the Ultimate Drink Package, NOT for the alcohol per se, but for the FREE Starbucks coffee

Hey, Gina !  Glad you joined us.
 
My top 3 are
 
Collapsible laundry bag
 
Electrical outlet hub with  USB ports (non-surge protected)
 
Over-the-door shoe organizer (probably very similar to your compartmental thing-a-ma-jig !)

thank you!! this is what I was hoping for! I'm even more excited now :D

We returned home from our cruise afterglow at Universal and Cabana Bay Beach Resort this morning.Universal was great fun, but didn't compare to our week on Freedom of the Seas. Below is a link to my last post regarding our cruise. Thanks for reading, and a big thanks to Matt for providing this forum.

Enjoying reading along!!

Great posts, thanks for sharing!

Last Thursday at MCO, I had one if them completely lock up because he was ordering me to put my phone thru the x-ray but also to have my boardng pass in hand. Boarding pass is in the phone there Slick, make your choice!
 
The deer in the headlights look was priceless...

I may have forgot...O&T had zero as well 2 weeks ago.

I got off Freedom about three hours ago, and I can report the only sms I found were Glenfiddich, Glenlivet and then a bunch of blends. None of the brands you listed were available, although I bought a bottle of Caol Ila in your honor in St. Thomas.
 
I checked R Bar, Boleros, the Pub, the Sky Bar, the Schooner Bar, and the Pool Bar. It was pretty much the same story everywhere. I never went up to Olive or Twist.

Order honey stung chicken from room service
 
...and......GO!

HEY! This was my idea!!! I'm glad someone actually executed it! :D
 
Get 2 adjoining rooms instead of one big suite with kids! 

My apologies for not providing sufficient context to the original post. During Matt's daily Periscope broadcasts, he will utter at least one "gotsta" in reference to an activity, product or feature of a Royal Caribbean cruise, ship or port. In yesterday's (5/19/2016) Periscope, someone came up with the idea of tracking them perhaps in the hopes of creating a future "Gotsta" t-shirt with a top "gotsta" list prints on the back, perhaps a la Letterman's Top Ten list. So, here is a place to do just that.

Exactly.
 
TSA provides no more than the illusion of safety.  
 
The garbage can full of discarded items is a perfect example of such.  Lets face it:  If someone wanted to cause mass chaos and destruction, why bother trying to sneak something onto a plane and harm 200 people, when you can waltz into the airport with a standard size carryon or two of explosives and shrapnel, unimpeaded, and put yourself into the middle of 2 to 4 THOUSAND people all crowded together to be xrayed.  
 
They are nothing but a reaction to something that has already been done.  Someone tries to ignite a shoe?  lets remove shoes.  I'm really surprised that some group hasn't made a show of pulling dentures out at 35,000 feet and "igniting" them.  Within a week we would see the TSA with their blue-gloved hands in everyone's mouth and forcing all dentures to be removed and x-rayed.  Hell, the same could be done with eyeglasses, hearing aids, so many ways to make life miserable all because of the reactionary way the TSA tries to justify itself.
 
OK, I'll put the soapbox away and show myself out...

This is fun and scary that you all know me so well.  I'm honored!

So as some of you know, I'm a big fan of Scotch.  RCCL's site and customer service has a very limited list of single malts that they say they carry, and nothing I'm interested in.  That in mind, despite my inquiring many times, on the Allure I found that the champagne bar had several great single malts I enjoy (Laphroaig and Ardbeg, to name two).  Again, they were only in the champagne bar, and I only found them by luck.
 
I'm trying to decide on beverages packages for the Freedom and Navigator group cruises, and whether or not these single malts are available is key to that decision.  If you happen to be sailing on Freedom or Navigator soon, and can ask every bartender you come across if they have any of the Scotches below, I'd be very grateful, and would be glad to buy you a drink or two for your trouble as well as make you a star on an upcoming Periscope ;-)
 
-Laphroaig
-Ardbeg
-Caol Ila
-Lagavulin
-Bunnahabhain
 
I put them order based on how likely I think it is that they'd have them.  I really wish RCCL customer service didn't disappoint me (and my agent) on this front, so if you can be my hero, let me know.
 
Thanks!

Thanks! I am actually going to do both!
