More ship movement on Fantasy?

[charminnie]

Going on Fantasy May 2017! Have been on the Magic to the Bahamas and Dream to the Bahamas all in May. For those of you who have sailed the Fantasy Eastern, do you think we will feel more movement than our last two sailings?

It depends on the water conditions.

No, the movement shouldn't be any more (or less) than you've felt before. There is, however, a vibration issue in the aft of the ship. That is unless they've fixed it since we were on her. It was so bad that water glasses were "dancing" off the tables in Animator's Palate, and our bed felt like one of those cheap motel vibrating beds that used to be popular.

It used to have this problem on those days where the ship was traveling 20 knots or faster. At slower speeds, the vibration is much less (but still there).

I hope that it's been fixed.

Oh wow. What deck were you on?

Deck 10, starboard aft, and deck 9 midship port. More vibration in the deck 10, aft room than the deck 9 midship room. But it was still there on deck 9.

Thanks. We're going to be on midship deck 6.

We were aft on the Fantasy in 2015 and the vibration was rough. Booked for May 20, 2017, in the same room. Since that is the first sailing after dry dock, I hope it will get fixed.

We've sailed on all four ships and the amount of movement appears similar. As one of the PP's noted, its more a case of the sea state than the ship.

That is the exact sailing we will be on!
