Shidah Posted March 18, 2019 #1 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Anyone on the Escape recently who can report if the higher cost for the Vibe has lowered demand? Are they still sold at Headliners? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim The Lizard Posted March 18, 2019 #2 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Every post I've read and recent reviews indicate demand is still high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruise409 Posted March 18, 2019 #3 Share Posted March 18, 2019 I am new to NCL. My first cruise on NCL is in September on the escape. Can you explain to me what is the Vibe? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escaping2016 Posted March 18, 2019 #4 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Hi can anyone just off the Escape tell me who the Cruise Director is and if they know if they will still be there next month 4/14-4/21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re paying to get away from the crowds and kids and have someone bring drinks to your lounge chair. From pictures and reports I’ve seen it can extremely hot and/or windy up there. There is no pool or way to cool off, but I think they come around with misters. (The thought of drinking all day in the baking sun makes me queasy, but apparently it’s worth a lot of money to some.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they still sold at Headliners? Private sundeck. They sell around 80 passes for the 4500 passengers. So, if you are not a priority passenger, you have to show up at the port at the crack of dawn, rush through security and check in, hope that you're one of the first to board the ship, and walk very fast (not run) to the sales point. It's on the top deck near the front of the ship, so you need to deal with the weather and winds on deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have showers and large misters. They also have a really nice, clean bathroom Skip to 1:38 and you can see the Misters .....

If it's a six month contract, he would probably just be finishing up his contract while you are there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upon entry there is someone standing there that informs you of the price increase.I didn't notice anyone getting off the line when they heard the price. To answer the question regarding the cruise director, It was Dan Dan and I was told that he would be there for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I swear, he must look at my future bookings and sign up to be on board at the same time as me! He was our cruise director on my first ever NCL sailing on the Escape last February, then the Bliss this February, and now I am back on the Escape in April (sounds like he will still be there then). Now if he is on my Encore sailing in December, I will know for sure that he is stalking me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escaping2016 Posted March 20, 2019 #15 Share Posted March 20, 2019 We had Dan Dan on the Bliss back in August. We really like Silas but we did enjoy Dan Dan. Not like it matters much most of the time it is the assistants that make or break the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
