Ask Your Escape Questions!

[Brittany C]

Starting October 27, we will have Cruise Critic editors onboard Norwegian Escape, with the opportunity to experience the ship and chat with execs.

 

We'd like to know: What Escape questions do you have? We'll do our best to pass them on and find some answers.

 

Happy Cruising!

We'd like to know what's on then menu at Margaritaville?

[brookie848]

Seeing menus for the Escape-only restaurants are top on my list.

Are the Guppies age group (6 mo - 3 years) free in splash academy or is there an hourly fee for drop off?

I am most curious about:

 

• menu pictures of the restaurants/bars, particularly the new ones
  
• the affect the new pool deck layout has on crowds
  
• some rope course pics, that zip line that goes over the edge looks awesome
  
• the new two person racing slide
  
• Spice Grotto, how usable is it vs. just being a water feature
  
• entertainment plans for brewhouse and 5 o'clock somewhere bar
  
• Ala carte pricing

How will the new a'la carte approach in the restaurants that will be implementing it be handled for those with UDP and SDP?

 

Also, what kind of WiFi speeds are your Cruise Critic personnel experiencing on-board?

 

Thanks :)

I'd like to know

when is Margaritaville open - is it for breakfast, lunch or dinner or any combination?

 

what is internet like, wondering if we will be able to use in our cabin?

 

Just over 3 weeks until we go and getting excited.

I would like to know what gluten free options exist outside of the main dining room, such as the lido buffet for quick food.

[lesalou]

I would like to know what the rules are for door decorating. Are the doors magnetic?

[GoodToGo]

Please investigate and provide a description of any available storage space (in addition to the closet) in the most basic INSIDE CABIN onboard the Escape - i.e., are there any drawers, bins, shelves, etc., outside the bathroom? If so, how many? Thanks!

[Sand and Seas]

With the new ala-carte pricing, I would like to know how they will handle the Platinum free dinner. Will it only be good at Le Bistro or other restaurants as well? Will it be set with one appetizer or can you try a couple (my favorite part of meal!)

 

Also, can you provide pictures and details of differences between Penthouses within Haven versus an Aft or Forward? We plan on trying our first Haven this next year.

 

So jealous of you! Can't wait until our January Escape cruise:D

I second the platinum free dinner question. Is it still good just for Le Bistro, La Cucina and Moderno??? Have others been added?? We're on the December 12th cruise. We also will be seeing how they handle the free dinner we usually get from CAS, as HOT status.

Would love these as well!

[missdixie]

Me too on the menus. Also ala-carte info.

[cmdchiefthom]

I would love the know or better yet have a picture or two of the stern H-6 balconies finally put to rest the size issue as compared to the Breakaway and Getaway.;)

[Imasima752]

Would love to get a copy of the spa and salon price list. Specialty dining menus would be great too. Thanks for creating this thread!

[sixesandeights]

Please get a full beer list from the District Brewhouse.

Booked for November, but I would appreciate your opinion about how similar the Escape is to the Getaway/Breakaway. I understand it is improved, but how so?

 

Thanks!

[ElPolaco]

I'm interested in District Brewhouse beer menu/Margaritaville menu. Also interested in whether craft beers are included in the UBP?

[hhfarmer]

I would love to see pictures and review of thr O2 Forward Facing Oceanview Staterooms.

[minnesotamamafish]

I am interested in what an O1 family oceanview looks like. As many pictures as possible!

 

I hope whoever is going is able to fulfill all these requests and still enjoy the cruise. ;) It would answer so many questions and make all of us future Escape cruisers here on CC really happy!

Thank you!

I will be on the Transatlantic. On the Getaway transatlantic we had a number of extra shows in the theatre, for example there was a Beatles Tribute Group. What extras are planned for the Escape Transatlantic?

[Minoushka]

Casino pix ...showing what machines are available

All restaurants and how they look

Golf course etc etc ...loads and loads of pictures

Please obtain information and photos of the Guppies Nursery area. Would like to see a daily sheet for the infant program and pricing for nursery.
