Everything.. ESCAPE (live 29 Oct 2015!)

Getting closer!

Booked in 18118 for Dec 12. It looks like the hot tub is right over my bathroom / balcony... Am I looking at this right?

First time sailing on NCL. We sail Dec 5th 2015. I booked a minisuite during the kids sail free promotion. I also was granted a choice of Bev package or Dinning packing. I choose the dinning package. I wonder- if I were to pay for the dinning package,-- how much would it be/ My kids are 5.

Secondly, I wonder if anyone can tell me how comfortable it is to sail in a minisuite with 2 5 year olds? We normally book connecting rooms, but indeed wanted to take advantage of the kid sale free promo. The agent could not give me much details about the room apart from the square footage. How are these rooms situated on the Breakaway class? I was hoping that this room had 4th bed that was not a upper berth. One agent sais a 4th twin comes out of the wall and one said no, there are upper berths.

We are also booked in a minisuite with a 6 and 9 year old, we have also done cabins similar on Carnival, no problem with room in our cases.

A normal minisuite has an upper and a lower for the 3/4 passenger

Not my picture but a mini suite M6 category on the Breakaway.

Pretty standard upper/lower combo

I just hope there's not too many kids on my sailing

Yep, although it does appear to be more over 18120 but it does "spill over" (no pun intended) to your window/balcony.

Its also the public hot tube, FWTW

A 3 day Bahamas junket? Probably not.

But if its going to be a problem...then hope springs eternal. :D

Depends on the days of the week I'd say. If those 3 days hit a weekend there will probably be a ton of kids. If the 3 days are weekdays probably very few kids. I assume this is early November we're talking so school would be in session.

Nov 11-14 Wednesday to Saturday

Veterans day is Wednesday, which may be a school holiday.

Motleyfan...Maybe you should sail with HAL. They seem to favor older folk.

I think Motley is cruising on the inaugural 7 day cruise, no?

Wow, and with the talk of the kids club only taking a certain number of kids....but that's right.....it didn't bother you because you didn't have any.

Enjoy your cruise :D

I know that NCL calls these rooms mini suites, but I still feel that they should really be called Deluxe Balcony. They hardly fall into suite territory, mini or otherwise.

There's a different room called a deluxe balcony

Well bigger bathroom and in the case of an M6 a much bigger balcony than even most Haven balconies are. One of the few balconies that you can get sun and shade.

But its just a bigger room from a standard balcony. No deluxe involved.

B6 has a good sized Balcony.

You will be too drunk to notice them anyway.

Speaking of kids what is the height and age? requirement for the ropes course on either the Away's or Escape?

Nevermind I found it, 48" tall unless you have a chaperone. 300lbs is minimum weight.

The whip slide is 40" tall.

no.

I'm cruising on the 3 day in November the one out of Miami

Is 300lbs the max for the ropes course?
