...I just wanted a Diet Coke...

See you onboard! Im on Breakaway next Sunday!! Looks like sunny sailaway at the moment for next week!

See you on board in The Haven!! (BTW, we are also DVC members!)

We are boarding when you get back. Have a great cruise!

We leave for Breakaway in just under three weeks. I have no doubt that we will have a great vacation with countless positive memories. As always, we will buy plenty of bottled water because water is water and it is sold on board. Soda is a completely different problem. I drink far more Diet Coke and Diet Dr. Pepper than I should (it is my morning coffee for those of you that relate to that). Maybe that's a good analogy, if the cruise only offered hot tea and told the coffee drinkers that they could not carry it on.

In the past I carried on what was unavailable on board. If it was offered on board I would gladly pay for my desired soda; lugging soda to the pier is a pain in the butt.

Having said all of this, if this is not your issue I can see how this seems completely overblown, but that is true of most issues we don't relate to.

Yes

Love the review, thanks!

Loving your review, thank you.

Doing this cruise in August, loving your review.

I was on the cruise before this one and it was one of our best cruises in a long time .

We have sailed on both (and Oasis) and I would choose the Escape. We sailed on her a couple of weeks ago and it was the best cruise we have had in a long time.

$10 is actually one of the lowest minimums one can usually find in most mainstream casinos. I know that some places will offer $5 on some games like blackjack etc but $10 is usually the lowest I see.

I have visited many casinos (Vegas, Atlantic City, Native American) not sure what makes one "mainstream," in my experience $5 tables are quite common. I also cruise most of the cruise lines marketed to North America and $5 is absolutely the norm.

We cruised on her earlier this month and I can say that the have both three card (I played) and let it ride. The table minimums are $10 or higher on all tables including roulette (and they did not offer a low limit day). We thought the ship was great, in fact we felt this was our best cruise in a long time, but the casino was a low point. I like to make smaller bets to extend my casino time while maintaining a budget, the table limits made quick work of the allotted funds.

Got off this morning and boated with six liters of water, delivered as luggage to our room, no problem at all.

We just got off this morning, our card said the same thing and Margaritaville counts as one. Have a blast, we did!

Thanks for the great review, looking forward to the rest.

What does that mean? You know a lot of people Cruise Norwegian because you don't have to dress up and be all snooty and pompous.

Judging people by what they wear is snooty and pompous. Wear what ever makes you happy but don't assume I'm snooty and pompous because I choose to dress up (or not).

We board in January, can't wait for more of your review.

I do.

Pre cruise, we stayed at the Copenhagen Marriott. We made prior arrangements for transportation from the airport to the hotel which expedited our arrival at the hotel. Our room was ready when we arrived (9:00 AM), so we were able to put our luggage in the room and set off to explore Copenhagen.

We are also staying in the Marriott before our cruise on the 20th. May I ask from whom did you arrange transport?

We enjoyed watching the 'pageant' on each formal night. Most men wore dark suits and tie, and most women were in dark cocktail dresses. I wore a LBD and my husband wore his navy linen suit and we fit in fine. We did see some tie-less or coat-less men. I only saw 1 or 2 men in tuxedos; there were a fair amount of women in floor-length dresses (perhaps recycled bridesmaid gowns?), and the teens tended to dress down more (sundresses and cowboy boots were spotted a few times).

Thanks!

Just got off the July 7 sailing a week ago; formal nights were the first sea day and the Helsinki day, just as you said.

How "formal" was the average person? We are on the August 20th sailing and are starting the packing planing.

Thanks.

When they are addicted to artificially colored, artificially sweetened, artificially flavoured, artificially carbonated city tap water, loaded with chemicals, yes, they will carry those cups - all day and all evening.

How the air up there?

 

 

 

Does anybody really head to Burger King over McDonald's or Wendy's solely because of the freestyle machines? Or Firehouse Subs over Subway, Quiznos or Jimmy John's? Or BurgerFi over Elevation, Burger 21 or whatever your local favorite overpriced premium burger joint is?

 

Yes, I do.

Loving the review can't wait for more! We will be sailing her in August.

We would love a copy too, thanks.
