Aldeya Posted July 6, 2023 #1 Share Posted July 6, 2023 We'd like to book thermal suite passes for our upcoming Escape cruise. It is expensive ($299 pp) but worth to us. Usually we pre-book a thermal suite before the cruise but this time we have a lot of OBCs that we'd love to use for the passes. The Breakaway class Thermal suites are very popular, my concern is that even at this price the passes can sell out. I know, first world problem 🙂 but it's a splurge for us when we cruise. It would be nice to use those OBCs for something we need. Did anyone have the situation when you were not able to get thermal suite passes while trying to book them onboard?

SeekingKillerWhales! Posted July 7, 2023 #2 Share Posted July 7, 2023 Sorry, don't have an answer for you, but thought I'd bump this since someone probably knows how successful/amount of gambling it is to wait to get a thermal suite pass. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare debenson0723 Posted July 7, 2023 #3 Share Posted July 7, 2023 I almost always get a Thermal Spa pass and wait to buy it onboard. If it is a port intensive cruise or one where I have been to many of the ports, I now just buy a day pass on port days and enjoy the time (usually with only 1 or 2 other people) on the ship while everyone else is off. I have heard that day passes aren't always available but I have never had a problem getting one. I purchased a day pass on the Escape for $60...pricey but was worth it to me. Enjoy your cruise! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go early on embarkation day, I have never seen a sold out condition. Be aware that they will try to sell you a thermal suite “deluxe” package (Thermal Suite + body scrubs). On a recent cruise, all of the spa personnel had slips filled out with the deluxe price… and almost seemed stunned when I asked for them to fill out a form with just the thermal suite. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it’s the policies of the company who runs the spas on the ships, but the spa personnel as well as the masseuses can give the hard sell on their elixirs and spa upgrades. I just stick to my guns and get a Spa Pass when I board and stick to the “spa pass” only purchase. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lupush Posted July 7, 2023 #6 Share Posted July 7, 2023 I've never seen a situation where thermal passes have been sold out. My wife and I have been on 15 Breakaway/Plus class cruises and have never had a problem getting them on embarkation day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pie Posted July 10, 2023 #7 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Last year I wanted to book the thermal spa when I got on board to use obc. It was $199 but went up to $299 before boarding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
