Thank you for posting these pictures. I know it's a private entrance, but it looks so unremarkable and unnoticeable, which I suppose is the point. I imagine finding it will be no problem after the first couple of times...I'm glad we have a week!

Two days ago I had the chance to take 55 nice shots from the Have including two show cabins.

Enjoy them here:

The requests:

 

15844 and 14198 seem to have the door on the left side of the shared entrance in the hallway so that would be bathroom on the left and I guess bed by the door?

 

11710, our balcony room, has also the left door and ditto setup if I go by that.

 

Thank you sooooo much for this info. It's more that I thought was possible. I truly hope you enjoyed your time on the ship. I know we will enjoy it in mid January!

 

Again, thanks so much for all of your help and pictures!

Loving all these photo, thanks to so many of you. A couple of questions - firstly we have booked a regular balcony cabin (13738), is the bed towards the window or the small sofa? Would love to kow if bed was to the elft or right when you go in but I know that may be difficult to find out.

And also, can anyone tell me how internet reception is - we have already booked unlimited and are hoping to be able to use it in our cabin on ipad. Thanks everyone, can't wait for just over 2 weeks !

Was anyone able to get a photo of a regular aft balcony room (B1)? we are booked in 12910 leaving Dec 26th and so far I have only seen the Haven Suites with aft balconies. Thanks in advance!

 

I'm booked in that cabin Dec 12-19. Will take pics and leave it in good shape for you!

DH has finished his report about the Escape. The text is in German but you can use google translate. He´s focusing on the differences between Escape and Getaway. Two videos are included (Aqua Racer and Ropes Course - BTW I´m the one in the purple jacket). On the last page he has added his 360° panorama photos (you can "navigate" through the room).

 

And I found this 9 min plus

showing the departure and fireworks last Friday.

RCL has a similar pub concept with a pretty diverse beer selection and they are frequently empty. The same can be said for RCL's Vintages wine bars, which I believe are being phased out. The District and the Mondavi joints on Escape are roughly the same concept. It will be interesting to see where the crowds end up on NCL's iteration and if they are as popular as they have potential to be.

 

I have seen the pub quite crowded on RCI a lot of times depending on the entertainment offered. I don't recall as many draught beers available in the RCI pubs either. Vintages on the other hand seems to always have a few people coming going throughout the evening.

Thank you so much! Did it have a sofa bed as well with the curtain divider?

 

Yep, sleeps 4. When you walk in: bathroom right, left a "garage" cave like place for the sofa bed and lots of space, forward the single porthole, a table with two comfy chairs in the middle, bed to the left, wardrobe left of the porthole under the slope. If it makes any sense. Spacious room and would def. pick this one over sideways OV.

Thanks Freestyle.

 

I am a little bit confused as to the exact location of the door to the Haven on Deck 16. Does the sliding door in the picture have direct access to the pool or to the side of the ship. I am trying to figure out how to get to the spa suites and Haven from the pool deck since the elevators are right in front of the pool and it is a very crowded area.

They wouldn't allow me to take my GoPro down the one slide on Getaway that you stand in and wait for the floor to open. That was in February 2014.

Thank you, good to know. We are doing b2b Escape/Getaway and want to be able to use a GoPro on ropes and smaller water slides if not allowed on the drop slides.

Just got back home from the 2 day from Hamburg, I can only compare this ship to the Epic. The Escape is fantastic so well laid out, different bars with different ambiance we had a lot of fun and now slightly exhausted!!

 

I don't have many photos but can answer questions if I can.

 

We were in 9320 which is an aft facing balcony. We were sharing it with my 70 year old mum so had it set up as twins and the sofa being made up each night. Mum is in a wheelchair however her goal seemed to get us to whiz her round the ship to see as much as possible.
