cindivan Posted November 24, 2018 #1 Share Posted November 24, 2018 (edited) I think I remember reading this somewhere but can’t find it so apologize if this has been answered. We will be in the Symphony in December and some of our group wants to do the escape room. Can anyone who has cruised since she has been in Miami answer the following? (Or maybe it hasn’t changed since Miami?) - I can’t see on cruise planner where to book. Am I missing something or do we need to do it once onboard? If so, where and when? - cost? I think I read $20pp? - max participants? We have 17 traveling but we don’t all need to do it. But it would be great to know the number before so we can be prepared. thanks!

Biker19 Posted November 25, 2018 #2 Share Posted November 25, 2018 It may not show in the planner - book as soon as you get on board (you might be able to do it on the RCI app) I think it's limited to about 14 but don't know if you'll be able to book a whole room just to your group.

cindivan Posted November 25, 2018 Author #3 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Would we book at shore excursions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
migirl2014 Posted November 25, 2018 #4 Share Posted November 25, 2018 We sail March 2019 on Symphony and I show Escape the Rubicon in our Cruise Planner under Entertainment/Activities. It looks like you can add to your cart. I think this just popped in a week or so...around the same time as the show schedules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wine-O Posted November 25, 2018 #6 Share Posted November 25, 2018 It didn't show in our cruise planner on Anthem, but when we boarded, they had 4 stations in TWO70 to book shows and things like the escape room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cindivan Posted November 25, 2018 Author #7 Share Posted November 25, 2018 (edited) Aaah!! I see it has now been added to our cruise planner. But it won’t let me book more than one person. That won’t work. I guess I will keep checking or figure it out when we board. Thanks Edited November 25, 2018 by cindivan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truffles2 Posted November 25, 2018 #8 Share Posted November 25, 2018 We did it on the Symphony TA and our group was 10. The cost was $19.00. It is NOT easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elizabethbp Posted November 25, 2018 #9 Share Posted November 25, 2018 We just got off the Nov. 17 sailing. We had prebooked the escape room when it showed up in the cruise planner about a month before sailing. However, once on board we had a conflict when the ice show we had scheduled was cancelled due to technical problems ( apparently that happens on this ship a bit- Flight also was stopped during performance due to technical issues but did resume). The Symphony does not make rescheduling or scheduling events easy when on board. They set up mini kiosks at various times- and times may differ between the compass and the app. I rescheduled with the gentleman handing entertainment, I thought, but when I went to guest services to check the next day, it has not been rescheduled. Guest services managed to reschedule the reservation. In the end, we cancelled as I felt it would be too claustrophobic for me, but I was told they take 10 people. My suggestion is to go to guest services when you get on board . They overall were pretty good at handling issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swoopy2110 Posted December 3, 2018 #10 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Did it last week on Symphony. Max was 10 in a group. We escaped with 1 minute 40 to go Was very difficult but really enjoyable. Thought we weren't going to get out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cindivan Posted December 4, 2018 Author #15 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Thanks everyone! Now if you can help me figure out which 10 of the 17 we will try to sign up to do it together that would be great! 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lvscruzn Posted December 9, 2018 #18 Share Posted December 9, 2018 We did this on our Thanksgiving week cruise. It was sooo much fun! You have to all work together and listen to what each one comes up. Work as a group! We finished with 5 min and 4 sec's left!! It is not easy to do. Not sure if the younger ones would be able to solve as some clues are complicated. I booked ours through the activity section on the cruise planner. Got to pick the day and time which made it easy to plan for. Did ours on a sea day. Have fun!! PS... not a geek either! LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know bc my daughter is 12 and I can’t book her to do the room with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
