Hi,

We were just on the Escape in October from NYC to Bermuda. If it’s the same crew in the Splash Academy, it will be fantastic. Our 3 year old loved her “new school.” I wasn’t sure she would spend anytime there but she loved it and asked to go every day. The staff were wonderful. I would go on a transatlantic with our daughter for sure on the Escape. The only thing is that the kids pool is quite deep. However, the area with the kids’ slide and spray area were a lot of fun. 

Thanks so much for the review. Did your kids go to the kids club and, if so, did they enjoy it? Our 3year old LOVED splash academy on the Escape last month and the staff was wonderful. Wondering if you would recommend the one on this ship. 

BirdTravels, that's wonderful to hear! Thank you.

We got lucky. Coming from Toronto and going to NYC. We are flying in the day before the cruise by choice and the times are good. Returning, our flight out is a direct flight and leaves around mid afternoon so not too long of a wait. I did find waiting for the flight times stressful and we could have easily ended up with poorly time flights so not sure I would do it again. 

Hi all,

I've been reading reviews in which people found the spa mini suites noisy in the morning due to deck chairs being arranged. Since "noisy" can mean different things to different people, I'm wondering if anyone staying in a mini suite on the Escape and found it not noisy, or if you would or wouldn't book in the spa mini suite on the Escape again? Thanks so much!!

Super helpful. Thanks so much. 🙂

Thanks so much. I'll check which deck the smoking section is to help make my decision. 🙂

Hi all,

We're booked for the Norwegian Escape to Bermuda in October. Excited! Just wondered if there is a preferred side of the ship. We're booked on a balcony on the starboard side on the 11th deck. In particular, I'm wondering if we have to worry about smelling smoke from our balcony as I think I read that the designated smoking area is on the starboard side. Also any recommendations for best deck? Thanks so much for any advice. First time Norwegian cruisers and feeling excited! 

Thanks so much! This is very helpful. 🙂 

Hi all, This is my first time cruising on NCL. Excited about going on the Escape to Bermuda in October. I'm just learning about the bid to upgrade process. If one were to receive an email about this, when would it tend to happen? How many weeks, months out would the email offer get sent?
