DCL Treasure - Pool Deck Woes

You like crush in animators as compared to magic class animators?

Magic class all the way. Just the pirate show on dream class is horrible. Basically a sing along.

Going back to marketing and theming, DCL is at that point, IMO, where many of us have done multiple cruises since our children were little. I asked my 17 year old if it was time to try a different line. His response was that “we haven’t been to the pirate show in about 5 years because it is the same old show.” Even on pirate night, we didn’t see as many people dressing up in the themed clothing as in years past. So yes, he is ready to try RCCL because this age group for the most part, is somewhat tired of the same themes. Don’t get me wrong, he and his friends found plenty to do. But Disney, you have gazillions of dollars, it’s time to come up with some new themes to appeal to the “old” generation of DCL cruisers to keep us coming back for more magic.

Admittedly, my most favorite shows totally designed for the adult crowd occurred on the Treasure the first week of August. They brought on the original singers from Aladdin on Broadway in New York. What an absolute treat…I could have sat and listened to these two sing for hours! Standing ovations both nights. Greatest shows I have ever seen in my 14 cruises! Worth the price of my entire cruise to see talent like that!

At least 10 things:

- No "wrap-around" jogging track (deck 4)
- No mid-ship elevator bank
- Cove Cafe is a joke (much smaller and way in the aft) on Wish/Treasure
- No shade in the adults area (and way in the back)
- Movie theatre seats are very uncomfortable on Wish/Treasure

- Bars are open areas (don't feel as private and adult as Fantasy)
- Midship Detective Agency is far superior to Uncharted Adventure (which doesn't work)
- MDR tables are WAY too close (especially at Arendelle's)
- Animator's Palate (Dream/Fantasy) is still better than Marvel MDR shows
- Adult areas were an after-thought (and reduced/downgraded)

Very possibly, the #1 complaint about the Dream and Fantasy is all the kids coming off the forward elevators and walking through the adult area all day long. So moving the adult area all the way to the aft of the ship was smart and completely eliminates that problem.

However, how they designed the adult area after making the decision decision to move it all the way back...was anything but smart.

Because we prefer to sail DCL and have the money to do so multiple times per year. We just choose which ships we will sail on and the Treasure isn’t one of them. We’ve sailed other cruise lines and weren’t fans.

So your favourite things are DCL related aspects of the ship/cruise? Which cant be the two things you listed as they arent dcl related at all.
