Thank you so much for taking the time to do this in such detail. We will be like ships passing in the night, but during the day. I am sailing on Sunday the 14th. If you would be so kind, I have a question about lobster. Previously, I had seen pictures of MDR menus that had lobster for a upcharge. Are they still doing this or is lobster only at Ocean Blue? Thanks again! Only at Byamos by Ocean Blue. Not in MDR (menus attached above). Lobsters left the menus in August 2016. And has left the Ocean Blue menu on some ships.

They don't have lobster rolls anywhere on Escape. Believe me, I just got off Sunday and I asked at every restaurant! Very disappointed due to the Breakaway having the Ocean Blue walk up window.

Remember to show up a little early and have the cast pour you a pint of beer. wrt the Supper Club, guest performers with complimentary dinners are booked through August with contracts as short as 1 week. NCL is evaluating replacing Choir of Man in the club. After Midnight’s 5-year contact is also up this year with no word on whether it will be renewed. they already announced Choir of Man as being part of the entertainment on the Encore so maybe they are just "moving" from Escape to Encore?

I'm booked on the Escape 9/1 and it says Choir of Man is performing (I know it can change in a heartbeat!). Really hoping I get to see it in September!

Rare graphicguy Posted April 2, 2019 #108 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Don't know if anyone mentioned this, but Choir of Man is no longer in the Supper Club. It's in the main theater. And, like its NCL sibling shows on other ships (Million Dollar Quartet, Rock of Ages, etc), it proves NCL has the best entertainment at sea, IMO! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted April 2, 2019 Author #109 Share Posted April 2, 2019 (edited) “Choir of Man” does not mean that the same performers stay on the ship forever. Most have 6 month contracts. The original UK cast will be doing a world tour soon, which they promote on the ship. Their replacements are probably already in training in Tampa. And yes, the show was the most popular in the fleet, so less than 10 months after paying to have it installed in the Supper Club, they reinstalled it in the main theater. The photos tons above are from the show in the main theater last night. Edited April 2, 2019 by BirdTravels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted April 2, 2019 Author #112 Share Posted April 2, 2019 (edited) Spent the afternoon touring the Kennedy Space Center. The bus tour of the center. The Saturn V display. The Atlantis exhibit. Simply fantastic! The doors of the Vehicle Assembly Building were open and we got a peek of the Space Launch System vehicle being assembled on a mobile launcher.
