Questions regarding Escape

[Gershep]

Taking the Escape to New England and Canada, (Bar Harbor & Portland, Maine and Halifax & Saint John, Canada. I was wondering while in port do they charge tax on beverages? I'm sure they do in Maine but wasn't sure about Canada.

 

When we arrive back to New York what deck is disembarkation on? I know on the Breakaway it was deck 7 and aft was the quickest. 

 

I tried making complementary dinner reservations but the times I wanted were taken. I know I can make them on board. Do they have a dinner reservation set up the day of embarkation like they have on the Gem in the Orchid Garden?  What is the best way to make these reservations.

 

Thank you in advance for your help.

I don't remember if I was charged tax while in Port in Canada, so I can't help there.

 

Disembarkation in NYC is on deck 7. Aft was only for wheelchairs and disabilities though.

 

Reservation desks are set up outside of Le Bistro on deck 6 and inside Headliners, also on deck 6 on embarkation day. There are also touch screens hanging on the walls near all the elevators on every deck that can be used to make reservations. Plus, if you have the cruise Norwegian app, put your phone in airplane mode, and then connect to the ship's wifi (no wifi package needed), you can make reservations through the app once on board.
