I need details of NCL Epic

[ChiefMateJRK]

I've only been on the Epic twice, and it was years ago.  I was SHOCKED that when I sat down to 💩, there was a full length picture window exposing me to everybody in the Atrium.  I had heard the "horror stories" about her 💩rooms, but didn't realize how awful it was until I actually experienced it.

 

Lesson learned: when it comes to the Epic restrooms, DO NOT believe what you read on the internet.  Wait until you actually experience the horror.  You may never return....

 

(jk) of course.  It's just a freakin' terlet, and it is fully enclosed.  Some of us like being able to use the facility while our partner is in the shower.  If you can't stand the thought of your traveling companion seeing your blurry fat behind, then draw the curtain.  I've got nothing to hide and nothing that anybody else in their right mind wants to gaze upon.  If I'm on the Epic (or any other NCL ship), I'm having a great time 24/7.

Which is why all the NCL ships built after that use that same efficient and effective bathroom organization...NOT!  The bathrooms on the Epic are an experience in sight, sound, and smell. 🙂

 

We didn't notice any smell at all, so I have to give it to the designers; the ventilation in the little
Star Trek toilet-transporter room is pretty good. The translucent glass, not so much. The noise of the doors disturb you at night if someone gets up to use the toilet-transporter room. Then you need light to be able to use the sink, which is in the room. I find a separate bathroom more convenient and that's what we book. We only had one trip on Epic.

 

Other than that, it didn't bother my wife and I too much, but it can be a real problem for families with shy kids or unrelated, non-romantic couples. I couldn't find the post with a quick search, but I recall someone taking two cheap plastic shower curtains and using clothes pins or magnets to attach them to the transporters so your family doesn't look like they're in a 1980s soft porn movie on Cinemax.

My point was that you can make reservations and still be free to decide when to eat.  If it's 5:30 in the MDR, great!  If not, just stop at any restaurant around (or pick up the phone?) and tell them "never mind."  To be honest, I just get so excited about an upcoming cruise that I want to be wasting time making meaningless reservations for this and that.  It makes it all more real! 😎  I think I'm about 5 weeks out.  Is that right @ggTexasGal? 🤡

You bet!🤩
