Just saw the Magic go out to sea

Isn’t Symphony of the sea is the one that had that glass incident today that almost fell on a passenger? Hopefully that crew member that moved that is getting a good raise.

The glass fell yesterday. I have no idea what happened but it was a lot of glass and they had to close one of the pools to drain it and part of deck around it. It happened after lunch yesterday and everything was reopened first thing this morning. I was told no one got hurt by both the crew and some guests that witnessed it.

You can find lots of videos of the incident on TikTok- a crew member literally just moved people out of the way just in time. Very lucky no one got hurt.

I had been posting here for 7 years before I saw one of the ships in person

I’m not trolling I love WDW but have not been on a Disney cruise or seen their ships before. I live in New England so the ships aren’t hanging around up there.

I believe you but I’m not really sure what the goal was in posting that you don’t think DCL ships look pretty. Were you just looking for confirmation that Royal was the better choice for you? (Which honestly, it probably is based on how you like to cruise.)

That said, I do think it’s a little ironic to criticize the look of a DCL ship when the Royal ship you’re sailing on just had a major incident. That glass panel breaking wasn’t minor. It was a massive piece, and things could have gone very differently. Royal was incredibly lucky no one was seriously hurt.

There was no ‘goal’ that is an odd thing to say. People aren’t allowed to have opinions and share them on a message board? Just about every post I read has someone’s opinion in it. Or is my opinion just not allowed because it is different?

I think it is ok for people to like different things. That is what makes the world go around. I never criticized anyone who takes a Disney cruise I simply stated I thought the ship was unattractive and showing her age.

I have not taken a Disney cruise for a variety of reasons (price, lack of variety in ports, and lack of dining options would be the three big ones for me) and none have anything to do with how the ship looks. I have stated I don’t think the ship I’m on is attractive but it checked the boxes for this trip.

I also didn’t like the grand Floridian when stayed there but love boardwalk. Lots of people love the Grand and don’t like the Boardwalk. I don’t argue with them when they say they don’t like boardwalk. That is why they have different resorts.

What a weird comparison. I can’t think something is unattractive because the ship I was on had an accident? Accidents happen on ships and in life. They handled it well and that is what matters. I’m sure over the years there have accidents on Disney and unlike a recent Disney cruises the plumbing isn’t raining in the ship I’m on.

I am not looking for anyone to say what is a better choice for me. I also only said what ship I was on when asked and have not compared anything.
