It's still pretty darn loud without the air horns, but imagine if the air horns had sounded. That would have been awesome. Maybe Independence of the Seas does not have air horns. Maybe only Freedom and Liberty do. Could that be possible?

Do you have any more videos of the emergency singal on Independence of the Seas that you are going to upload soon?

Awesome Video!

It's a shame the air horns did not sound. Those things are so awesome. Well, the PA tones are still awesome. Are you sure Independence has air horns? Maybe it's just Freedom and Liberty that have them? Could that be possible? Do you have any more videos of the emergency signal that you are going to upload soon?

@NYcruiseships Of course it has air horns or fog horns as it's called. They are used for navigational purposes in general. Every ship must be equiped with fog horns. Why they aren't used nowadays during muster drills I don't know to be honest. Judging by various clips here on YouTube it seems that fog horns were used in muster drills some years ago.

@Mattsana During a drill you generally don't use the fog horn for the alarm signals because it's just a drill and you don't want the rest of the port thinking you've got a problem.
