Jenjer Posted November 9, 2015 #6054 Share Posted November 9, 2015 I don't know if this has been answered yet but I'd like to know how you use the arcade on the Escape? Specifically how are charges applied? Do you purchase an arcade card to swipe in the games or do you swipe your room card every time you play a game? I hope someone can answer this. Also how much games cost per play, standard arcade prices? You just swipe your card and it charges your room. The games are not cheap but I have no idea how they compare price wise. If you childs card has charging privileges they can go crazy is the arcade and your stuck. Always here of kids getting busted at the end of the cruise with arcade bills. Guess the folks don't check during the week. I am unsure if you can put a spending limit on your kids card. We just give them a personal limit and check the bill daily. They know we check daily and no one gets surprised. Most ships have a few times the arcade is "free play" its crazy insanely busy and crowded during that time but its free. DH and my 2 kids go to it but I avoid it like the plague. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CamaCama Posted November 9, 2015 #6055 Share Posted November 9, 2015 (edited) We happened to have an event at the Intercontinental Miami on Saturday night so on our way home on Sunday we drove by the Escape! She's pretty amazing... (video) Edited November 9, 2015 by CamaCama Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LrgPizza Posted November 9, 2015 #6056 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Did anyone else notice there aren't any balcony lights on Escape? Is it just me? We couldn't find a switch to ours, so we went outside and there was none. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We couldn't find a switch to ours, so we went outside and there was none. I thought it was our really really fwd balcony (a bit under the bridge wing) location was the reason for not having a light. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SissasMomE Posted November 9, 2015 #6059 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Wow - that's cool. There's always someone who forgets to turn it off, so I'm ok with no light on the balcony! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruisinHarvey Posted November 9, 2015 #6063 Share Posted November 9, 2015 I noticed Sunday morning in the video of the Escape coming into the port. It was completely dark from maybe deck 8 to 15 or 16. I would have thought someone would have left a light. Now I know why they didn't. I guess if you're on your balcony at night, you need to keep your curtains open to be able to see out there. Unless, of course, the moon is as bright as we like it to be when we're cruising.

FreestyleNovice Posted November 9, 2015 Author #6064 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Hoping it's some light and sound equipment. Not sure what it does on there.. Looks like equipment used on a wood shredder. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare eroller Posted November 9, 2015 #6068 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Wow - that's cool. There's always someone who forgets to turn it off, so I'm ok with no light on the balcony! Agreed. Very happy there is no light on the balcony. Neighbors often leave theirs on all night on previous cruises which is very annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetpee_1993 Posted November 9, 2015 #6069 Share Posted November 9, 2015 I created an account on periscope to see this. NCL is the only follow I have. It says no one I'm following is live. Technology! Why are you forsaking meeeeee??????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bitsey66 Posted November 9, 2015 #6074 Share Posted November 9, 2015 It's pretty darn impressive to see her being escorted home! Although I'm sort of "new" in the cruise world (only 4 under my belt), it's still exciting to see! We will be on her next October! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, you didn't miss much because it looks like they cut the broadcast. I'm super bummed and disappointed. Why NCL, why?!!!
