snownow Posted June 19, 2016 #1 Share Posted June 19, 2016 We are fresh of the Escape (and loved it), and are now looking at booking a Thanksgiving cruise. For those that have sailed on the Escape and the Getaway, any suggestions or preference of ship? We would be a party of ten ranging from 65 to 7 with 4 kids. We have also been to all the ports on both cruises, minus the cay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zqvol Posted June 19, 2016 #2 Share Posted June 19, 2016 If it were me I would go on the one that had the best fares available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalLuvsCrusingToo Posted June 19, 2016 #3 Share Posted June 19, 2016 I've been on Breakaway & we were on Escape last Thanksgiving. Unless you GET reservations, you may have trouble (especially with a large group) on Thanksgiving. What WE did......got Res at Teppanyaki? the Benihana type restaurant on Thanksgiving. Cuz Who thinks to go there on Turkey day? Lol Worked out GREAT. On the way to our table, I mentioned to the server, who then talked with one of the chefs.... "wouldn't it be great if we could have alittle Turkey with our meal tonight? Then we would be having a Legit Thanksgiving!" Sure enough, the chef raided the restaurant next door & got some turkey, and cooked it with our dinners! So we all got a few bites of turkey on Thanksgiving. All was right with the world..... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted June 19, 2016 #4 Share Posted June 19, 2016 The Escape will have a few more things to do,,, but if you just got off the Escape, maybe something new (Getaway) is the way to go. The ships are cousins. We have sailed on the Escape, Getaway, and Breakaway twice each,,, and wouldn't hesitate to book any of them. Right now, our favorite is the Escape because of the variety of (gotta-pay-more) specialty restaurants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now, our favorite is the Escape because of the variety of (gotta-pay-more) specialty restaurants. We ate at four of them (gotta-pay-More), and they are doing it right as far quality. Loved all four... Having three on a package was nice. The Escape even with the number of people on board never felt super crowded (other than the pool :confused:). How does the getaway compare?
