bkirkham 27 Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Are the Muster drills still done on deck with everyone crammed together like sardines? Loopner 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Marc 294 Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 It depends on the ship, and on each ship, it depends on the particular muster station. Oasis and Allure generally have their muster stations not out on the deck, and some in areas where you can sit during the drill (like a dining room or the Aquatheater). Most of the ships, however, do generally have their muster stations on the outside Promenade deck. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DocLC 2,015 Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 On the Jewel, our muster station was in the hallway leading to the Schooner Bar. We were packed in pretty tightly and would have preferred to be on deck. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
michelle 686 Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 yep depends on the ship - on the quantum I was in an area on the promenade, I've been in the Aqua theatre on Oasis and Allure but for older ships they do often hold them outside since that is the configuration of the ship - but nice thing is you don't need the life vests on anymore, such a big difference.

Matt 12,137 Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 It depends where your muster station is. If you're lucky, it will be indoors where you can sit somewhere. But sometimes you are outside on deck. At least now they've dropped the requirement to have to bring the life jackets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cleo 9 Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 Like everyone has said; Allure and Quantum that I have been on have muster stations inside. It may be more comfortable for the drill but if there were a real emergency I do not like the idea of heading inside the ship for my muster station. It seems much more logical to muster by lifeboats. I would prefer to be crammed in for the 30 minutes, or so. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bkirkham 27 Posted January 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 Anyone know about the Navigator? Is it still on deck? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matt 12,137 Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Anyone know about the Navigator? Is it still on deck? It varies depending on which muster station you have. When I was on Navigator, we were in the Star Theater bkirkham 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Galveston Steve 532 Posted January 23, 2015 Report Share Posted January 23, 2015 Anyone know about the Navigator? Is it still on deck?...for us on Navigator we were on deck, crowded like sardines, but with a great view of Galveston. To my surprise, a coworker and his wife appeared at our muster station. I had no idea he was even on our cruise until then. But I digress. markinct and bkirkham 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
