Everything.. ESCAPE (live 29 Oct 2015!)

Lol, wow.

 

Wow what? I spend all my time in the casino, if I can't smoke in it then I will never go to it.

Not to hard to understand.

Guppies Program/Nursery (For 6months and to 2 or 3 years; the baby program)

 

I see some people have gotten info here. Lot to go through in this thread.

 

Thank you EVERYONE that is taking their time to share photos and info.

 

See Instagram LM. :)

High rollers can smoke at their tables in the vip room. No slots in there I think. :)

Thanks for all the pics Freestyle! I'm following you on Instagram :)

[FreestyleNovice]

Has NCL made any comment on the fact that the Escape Casino is non-smoking? Could it just be that they made it the policy for these early cruises to prevent a bad first impression?

 

If it was just the daily I would share your point of view but it's programmed in the slots machines displays as a service announcement (in the roll of flasy things that go on on such a display) and permanent in the top of that same screen.

 

Might take a pic later, have to be there as the souvenir shop was a madhouse earlier today hehe.

See Instagram LM. :)

 

Thank you so much! A bit disappointed to see there is a daytime rate AND higher nighttime rate. We will have to budget appropriately so we can have one kid free night out, or else keep ankle biter with us.

 

It would seem that the open play times would not be charged if a parent is present.

 

carnival currently charges $6.75 + 15% for babysitting. So $12 an hour for night time is a little stiff.

hoping some of the people in deck 8 large balc mini's will post pics here or at Cruise DEck Plans - anxious to see them!

 

Have fun on the crossing - someday we hope to do one!

Neat! I enjoy cigars from time to time (as my question earlier about the Humidor at Tobacco Row may show :P), but I'm definitely pretty impressed that the whole casino aside from the VIP room will be smoke-free. I guess NCL weighed their options and figured that a smoke filled casino in the middle of the ship was going to be less and less popular with their main audience (families) as fewer and fewer people partake in the habit.

 

I checked back through the past few pages, but didn't see anything. Any chance of a pic of the menu/drink options at Tobacco row? I'm curious if they have a more diverse dark liquor collection there.

[FreestyleNovice]

The requests:

 

15844 and14198 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.

 

12700, haven't got to see an fwd facing oceanview. I booked 11700 but got an unasked upgrade to a balcony heh. It's on my list, maybe with disembarkation I can get a pic! Or two, three. :)

 

Haven to pool deck on 16 will follow here, it's an anonymous door!

 

Supperclub was closed, been in it but was too dark for pics. I even did not notice the tables (all black furniture) set up behind the U shaped seats. 3rd rang? ;)

 

Ropes regulations have been posted.

 

Balcony bathroom pics will follow when we get home, nothing special for Instagram imho. ;)

 

I think I covered it all?

[Dead-metal]

We're on Escape on Wednesday night in an accessible cabin. Let me know if you want to know anything specific about travelling in a wheelchair! So excited :)

Thanks to everyone who has posted. I know you couldn't pre order the beverage package for the one day cruise tomorrow but do you think it will be available once onboard?

[bucade]

I was just wondering if you could take a pic of the dinner menu for the MDR? Having never been on a NCL cruise before, we just wanted to know a little of what to expect. Thanks!:o

Families? Last I checked casinos are 18 and over only I don't think that's too much of a family atmosphere lol.

I'm pretty sure it isn't offered for one night cruises.

Please post pictures! We have one booked for my inlaws in January.

[hhfarmer]

I found a nice video of the O1 Family Oceanview on deck 5. Sorry if this has already been posted.

 

 

I am so grateful to everyone that has been positing pictures and information on this forum. The menu's look fantastic, the beverage selection looks great and the ship looks absolutely beautiful.

 

To everyone sailing now, have a fantastic time! For those waiting to sail, enjoy the videos! For those waiting to book, what are you waiting for?

 

Have a great Monday everyone!

Hi Maddysdaddy ... I spoke with my son and it's as I thought... There is definitely adult language in the show in several places... It's a great show but I understand where you are coming from about your daughter... She might be a little too young for this one.

 

Thank you for checking - very much appreciated! We may need to tell the munchkin that she will have to suck it up and go to the kids club for a couple of hours one evening.

[helen haywood]

From a link here to some cabin pictures it appears that the B6 cabins no longer have the large balcony like the Away ships. Am I correct?

Lol yes!! I really think you will enjoy the show... Especially if you are a fan of the movies...just not for little munchkins ears!!! [emoji16]

Noted. :)

 

I saw a drink menu from here somewhere. I will try to track it down for you. There were only a few specialty drinks listed. I will get back to you shortly.

 

EDIT: Sorry Freestyle, I quoted the wrong post. I meant to quote Noah.

Well its larger but from the angle it certainly looks not as large, mostly because the regular balconies are larger.

 

The M6 balconies look more exposed than the Away - due to the wider beam of the ship?
