Hello everyone,

We're sailing Freedom on the 12th of November. Any tips or advice that previous Freedom passengers out there have would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

When you get on the ship get a map of the ship and check it out from top to bottom so you know where everything is. Read the daily Compass (the daily bulletin) to find out when and where all the activities are each day. Don't think you have to do everything. Don't miss the Circus parade or the ice show.

I've never been on the Freedom, but I will be next year. However I have found a copy of the "Cruise Compass" Newsletter for the Freedom. All 7 days are listed back from June 18, 2006. I'm sure some of the stuff has changed but it will give you the general stuff.
Here is the Compas.
Here is the website with a great review and pictures of the Freedom.

I found it all very interesting!

Hi,

welcome to cruise chat. I was on the inaugural Freedom cruise that sailed June 4th. If you are interested in the Florider, I wrote a review of it. You need to log in, then under the "Find" tab type in Freedom Review, and up pops your results. My review is on the second page. It was a real blast. Lil' Lori

Is this your first ever cruise? We are going on the Freedom next year and have never cruised before. We can't hardly wait. After you go, write us and tell us all about it! Have a great time!

Sure is Linda. Just the two of us. We'll be hitting all the adult venues/activities (hanging out with kiddies on a honeymoon just wouldn't do) and We'll post a review of them, and the cruise when we get back.

well we boarded between 11am and noon and went to the Windjammer for lunch because the cabins werent open till 1pm, but it was a struggle finding somewhere to eat inside the Windjammer because that is where everybody was at. But we also took this time to explore the ship as much as possible, so we knew were everything was before all the action started.
