NCL Epic questions about Teen Programme and Inside cabins!

Posted this on family, but think may get more help in the NCL section! :)

 

Hi, this year we are wanting to go on NCL Epic, it looks brilliant and seems to have good 'teen' activites with plenty of children, right?

We normally go on RCCL but been told NCL good too. My 'teen' lives in the teen area, participating in all activities (she's 15). I hear there's bowling and discos, am I right? What's the general activities in teen club from day to day?

 

Also, inside staterooms, for three adults as my teen is already taller than us, we're only short though. How big are they in comparison with RCI inside staterooms. I don't want it to be very small and not big enough for us and our luggage, which we take a lot of!

 

Any advice is appreciated, and also any other tips about NCL Epic in general are too, thank you :D

I can't help with most of your questions, as i haven't sailed with NCL yet (My 1st time in August) but i do know that there is a $5 charge for bowling. I do hear there's a lot of kids activities, though, as well as a disco.

Hopefully someone with more NCL experience under their belt can chime in :)

I can help with the teen club. :)

 

The teen club, Entourage, is great. They have a free jukebox, video games etc. They had group activities planned throughout the day and night. They did rock climbing, bowling, watched a movie, went to dinner, had a teen prom night, teen quest, scavenger hunts etc.

 

Please note that bowling on the ship is normally a $5 fee but it was free when they went through the club.

Not sure which RCCL ships you have been on but we had four on the Sovereign of the Seas in a 112-square foot cabin and it was horrible. NCL's insides are small although we had a great sideways interior on the Sun.

I can't speak to the inside cabins, but the teen activities are great.

Sorry I don't have a scanner, so I took pictures of the 13-17 teen club from Epic for the week of 2/16-2/23/13. My daughter did say sometimes they don't do what's listed.

We're going on the Dawn 3/24-3/31 (7-day) out of Tampa. These teen activities look really fun, would these be the same ones as the activities on the Dawn?

Some seem to be fleetwide, however there are several listed there specific to EPIC.
