Enjoying the review. Thank you. I am sailing on the Getaway in February and every little bit helps.

I previous made a post that asked what was better for teens, the Getaway or the Gem. Unanimously the posters said Getaway. Well I just switched to the Getaway. Funny its the same price now because I upgraded the two rooms. I hope I am not kicking myself in February now that I am going from a smaller ship when kids are off from school to double the capacity. I saw one person refer to it as Lord of the Flies. Fingers crossed.

Not a fan of whistle pig. Angel's Envy Rye Manhattan for me although they don't have that so I'll take a Woodford Manhattan.

I just added Free At Sea Plus to my account. It comes up on my account and it says in the app that it has been added to the account. But if I go to book an excursion it does not have the second person in my room added as a discount. it also only states that I have one specialty restaurant available. Is this normal?

After posting this and seeing everyone saying the Getaway, I asked my kids what they wanted to do. My kids actually said they don’t care but I think they would like the Getaway better. I‘m Just not so excited about Virginia in Feb and Orlando for the 700th time. Wish they spent more time in the Bahamas. Would’ve made the choice easier.

Going on a cruise in February with two teenagers. I personally like the itinerary of the Gem 1000% better than the Getaway, but there is 4 days that we will be at sea. Looking at the reviews of the ship, it looks like there's more to do as a teenager on the Getaway than the Gem. Anyone take a cruise on the Gem with a 15 and 16 year old? Were they bored on the ship? Thanks!

Thank you

What exactly is streaming? Is that watching movies from your phone? I am traveling with two kids and thinking of getting the plus for the unlimited wifi. Was assuming that would work for the amount of time they spend "Tik Toking." but if tik toking is streaming, then I am going to have to get the streaming package as well.
