Todd W Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 I know it's still nearly a year off for my April cruise on LOS but i've been in full-on cruise mode for the last several weeks since we made it over the year hump and i'm ready to go! First off, does anyone know if LOS has the 70's themed party on the promenade or has that changed? Also I'm a big cigar smoker and the current deck plans i have may be outdated. Could someone confirm that the Connoisseur's club is still on LOS after the renovation? Wife and I loved hanging out in there on Mariner and was hoping Liberty still has one.

function12 Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 I was on the LOS back in September and yes they still had the 70's party and yes the Connoisseur was still pumping out cigar smoke. You might check again when you are only a few months out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd W Posted May 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 @function12 thanks, that's great to hear. Will definitely check again as we get closer. Seem's like the Connoisseur clubs are on their last leg which is understandable. Always met some great folks in there and a very laid back place to wind down the evening.

Even though I no longer smoke, I always loved the smell of the Connoisseur club. I'm sorry to see them disappearing. I actually didn't think there were any of them left.

I'm sorry to see them disappearing. I actually didn't think there were any of them left. I think my wife and I have an affinity for the club. Our first cruise on Mariner was for our honeymoon and seemed like we always ended up in there at the end of the night. Was a great wind down with a cigar and a glass of Porto for me. She never smoked herself but always enjoyed a cocktail in there chatting with everyone. and those leather loungers...you can just sink down into and easily doze off. Nothing against the current outdoor smoking areas on the ships these days, but for me it's always been the atmosphere. Whether its playing cards at my local shop, sitting out on my back porch or kicking back in the Connoisseur club on the ships. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twangster Posted May 23, 2018 Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 Liberty still has it. As ships like Indy and Adventure go through "re-imagining" they are converting them to card rooms, no smoking. I'm assuming Mariner will lose it as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firegal2539 Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 Todd, I just got off of the Liberty OTS last Sunday and the Connoisseur club was still there. We did not have a 70's party, don't know why but there wasn't one. I don't usually attend those kind of parties because I have to use a cane and I tend to get pushed around, banged in to and I don't want to take a chance of falling. I can't remember what they had instead. There was very little Royal Promenade stuff too, which really surprised me. I will say that this cruise, because of the ship and my cabin is probably my first or second best cruise and I have taken over 40 cruises. The only comment I had was the Cruise Director left a lot to be desired. He just didn't have the normal cruise director personality, he was quiet, very quiet.

firegal2539 Posted August 16, 2018 Report Share Posted August 16, 2018 WAAAYTOOO, so sorry I haven't been on the blog since this post in May. I started a new at home business and am working about 12 hours a day. I am not complaining I am loving it. The only thing is it interferes with my cruising. This year I have only taken 2 cruises and have a 14 day in October. The last two years I have taken 8 cruises per year and I am missing it. I have only booked one or two in 2019. Anyways, the Liberty was wonderful all the way around. The casino was very nice and the finally got answers to several questions about my rank/standing in the casino and explained how to move up. There were several jackpots won in seven days. Hopefully I will have time to get on the blog. Candie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAAAYTOOO Posted August 17, 2018 Report Share Posted August 17, 2018 Congratulations, Candie ! That's awesome. I can see how a biz would definitely interfere with your cruising ! Glad you are able to squeeze at least a couple of them in !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
