Rocky4ever Posted August 15, 2015 #3201 Share Posted August 15, 2015 On another note; does anyone know if the brewery (Windwood Brewery) will be included in the ultimate beverage package? Depends on the price of the beer. I won't be surprised, if it is over $11 😡 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barnacle_boy Posted August 16, 2015 #3203 Share Posted August 16, 2015 (edited) They are working on the starboard tender platform on the NDR stream, which appears to be under the Private Room at Taste (the double row of picture windows). Is this a different location from BA and GA, just curious? Yes, the shell door and tender platform configurations are slightly different from Breakaway and Getaway. Also, is anyone else amused that the ship's mast and satellite domes took a ride on the helipad? :p Edited August 16, 2015 by barnacle_boy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't be surprised, if it is over $11 😡 It would have to be pretty incredible to go over $11 a pint. I mean, even with mixed drinks you have to really try to break the limit, ya know?

Nothing big, just catched my eye, perhaps an corrected build mistake. Will try to look it up! Edited August 16, 2015 by FreestyleNovice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david_sobe Posted August 16, 2015 #3210 Share Posted August 16, 2015 I cant believe how fast they build these ships now. It was not that long ago where the names were picked. Now she is almost ready to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now she is almost ready to go. Steel cutting began on 20th March 2014, Meyer really has perfected the total building process, amazing. Now let's hope this Golden Age of cruise ship building isn't ending in a mothballed fleet someday (due to overcapacity etc)! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunnydaygirl Posted August 16, 2015 #3212 Share Posted August 16, 2015 We will be sailing over the Super Bowl. Will it be played on the large screen in the adults area and over the ship. We have a child with us and wondered where we could watch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LrgPizza Posted August 16, 2015 #3221 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Is it just me or does it appear that the angled balcony cabins on Escape are even bigger than on GA/BA? It looks like the bump out is deeper, making the angle even bigger. It also looks like part of the glass is straight before the angled part begins, whereas on GA/BA it's just a straight angle.

It's the angle the photo was taken at. The straight part is for the adjacent balcony. The dividers haven't been closed yet either, which makes it hard to tell where one balcony stops and the other begins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dividers haven't been closed yet either, which makes it hard to tell where one balcony stops and the other begins. I disagree on all standard balcs. It's a single pane divider. They are closed. I've (at least the ones in the pic in question) there are several other photos that confirm it. And as the angle balcs go. They are no different than BA/GA. Again there are several pics to back that up as well. But, the particular angle in that photo, really throws you off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarps14 Posted August 16, 2015 #3225 Share Posted August 16, 2015 (edited) It's a single pane divider. They are closed. I'm gonna have to respectfully disagree with you there. In the bottom row of cabins in that picture, I see a curved section of divider that appears to be folded back. Also, the vertical support for the divider is located only half way out on the horizontal piece above. I think barnacle_boy is correct on this.
