UFLaw Posted August 24, 2016 #1 Share Posted August 24, 2016 We are booked on an Aft Balcony on the Getaway for their rare 2 night cruise. The main reason we did this was to experience a big ship but not have to do a full 7 day cruise. Sort of decide if the big ships are for us. So what are the MUST DOs in this short of a time window? Best Bars to check out? Best "secret spot"? Best upgrades to try for? The ship is going to be pretty darn empty. I don't even think it is at 1/2 capacity. The only show is the Million Dollar Quartet. Thanks! Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kfamilycruise Posted August 24, 2016 #2 Share Posted August 24, 2016 MDQ is great. Dinner at Cagney's. Illusionarium if it is offered. Food isn't great, but entertainment is -- enjoy aft balcony. It is really great. Super spot is on waterfront outside of Sugarcane bar. Get a raspberry mojito and enjoy. I did an up sell last time on her to Haven and it was worth every penny. Heaven in the haven. Otherwise just find a spot and enjoy Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
escentialssoycandles Posted August 24, 2016 #3 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Our favorite things to do were the Sugarcane Bar outside and Cagneys. You will have a nice aft balcony so enjoy your time out there. In our 7 night we only did Illusionarium and it was ok. I would rather spend the time relaxing and doing things on a whim. Oh have a cupcake at Carlo's Bakery and some Cuban food for lunch at Flamingo grill before they turn it into Margaritaville! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chgomale Posted August 24, 2016 #4 Share Posted August 24, 2016 (edited) Go 2 the opening show to get a taste of all the acts onboard then you can choose what suits you best, definitely Mojito Bar, Cagneys, and Sunset Bar is a good place to enjoy a cocktail or 5 lol Edited August 24, 2016 by Chgomale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexadeparis Posted August 25, 2016 #6 Share Posted August 25, 2016 If law I too am on this sailing, following your thread. I hope the ice bar "Chill" is interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted August 25, 2016 #7 Share Posted August 25, 2016 If the ship is empty, then you're ok. If it is full, then you'll have problems. The shows/ship are designed to handle 4000 passengers over 7 days. The theater has 800 seats. Headliners far less. Too few seats for everyone to see the shows. And eat in the restaurants.

Bootman4U Posted August 25, 2016 #9 Share Posted August 25, 2016 What is the sailing date? I might try to get it through a discounter which is the way we usually get Haven accommodations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they don't spend the first night going to a show to figure out what to do the second night. Ha!
