ALLTINSOLDIER

Hello everyone first off i'd like to say how awesome you all are and that i love this forum! I'm a brand new member and this will be my first cruise since i was 12 haha.

So i have booked a cruise on the Norwegian Getaway for 1-17-16 and i'm facing a second thought problem about changing my reservation to the Escape on 1-16-16. Me and my wife will be celebrating our first wedding anniversary on 1-16-16 as well.

Getaway pros

From the looks of it the ports are great, Ocho rios, Cozumel, Grand cayman and great stirrup cay.

The ship sounds nice and has been sailing for a while hopefully meaning all the kinks are worked out.

Lots of great excursion choices (My wife needs to ride a horse at least once per vacation haha)

Getaway cons

The shows don't sound interesting to me personally.

food sounds good but no UDP so sticking to free meals and the whole cuban flare while sounds good to me probably not my wifes favorite.

Escape Pros

Brand new ship!!!

For me personally the shows sound more interesting

things like the margaritiville area and craft beer pub speak directly to my soul lol

Escape cons

Less ports St. Thomas, Tortolla and nassua. Better or worse then getaway ports?

General unknown about the ship and staff might still have kinks.

Sorry for so much rambling i just really need help making a choice!!! Any and all input is welcome and i still have plenty of time to change my reservation. Thank you all so much!!!

Quick question I know that the lobster tail was extra for "Ala Carte" but do you think that after you paid extra you could have as many of the tails as you wanted? Really enjoyed your review and i can't wait to sail on the getaway with my wife in January. Thanks!
