I remember reading (do not quote me when/where..), that the Jogging Track will be on Deck 4......which still begs the question... how?

But assuming this is true, could this be because they need the extra width on the Pool Deck for the pools, or what I am thinking it could be, is extra width for a Lazy River Pool...

Can anyone confirm any of this?

..... or thoughts?

the track probably runs behind the lifeboats on a small promenade deck. because there is a blocked view, its a good spot for a jogging track.

Aker Builder:
From the currently available Exterior Pix, deck 5 seems to have Balcony Cabins. Is this true?

If it is, then where is the jogging track?

Any clues would be nice... thank you.

Aker Builder:

Thanks again for the info!!!

Obviously then, the exterior pictures released are missing some detail (intentionally of course), as the deck #'s as you explained them, do not add up when looking at the currently available exterior pictures.

Question: Is the jogging track:
1. All outdoors
2. All indoors
3. Partially indoors and outdoors

Thanks
Mike

You mentioned the dinning room being three floors still but do we know if the theater will be bigger. The Voyager class was fine but the Freedom class was too crowded. The Windjammer was the same way and we have already gotten confirmation that they changed that so hopefully the theater is changed as well.

Im pretty sure Deck 0 is above the water line still. Deck 1 is the tender level and that is still a good bit above the water. Deck 1 also has the hallway that runs the entire length of the ship (the only place onboard you can see end to end). Deck zero is all behind the scenes stuff though, so many dont know it exists!
