Going Cruising...

Dave...I can tell you that if Explorer of the Seas is anything like Navigator of the Seas it will have an outstanding cigar lounge. I believe the boats are all set up very similar, so I'd assume you'll find it very comfortable and spacious. When I was on Navigator, I was in that room at least twice a day, if not more. Enjoy your cruise...I love'em.

Jon, the Explorer and the Navigator are sister ships.
They are both amazingly nice.
Just went on Navigator this past December, making it a second annual event for us. I love that ship and love their cigar lounge.

Dave,
I highly recommend paying the extra bucks and making reservations for one night at their steakhouse. Really, really nice treat for the money. Service and food to rival the likes or Ruth's Chris, Morton's, Del Frisco's, etc.
Just make sure you ask the waiter when lobster night is so you don't do it the same night. Also ask when filet night is so you don't miss that one either. Find the chicken/tempura night.

BTW,
When I say "find the chicken/tempura night", I mean in the sense that one should be the one you miss if you make reservations at Chops.

Next cruise I go on, I'm asking you for my itinerary! I love a well thought out plan.

Or just move to Florida and we can drive to the pier and go every time there is a last minute good deal. That way, you will know the itinerary by heart, even before you get to the ship.

They are great boats. I recently went on a smaller Carnival ship after being on the Navigator and I was sadly let down.
