Recommended Posts

Hello everyone I'm booked on the escape in janurary. 1st time with ncl. We have booked a inside cabin on the 11th deck towards the back of the ship. 11675 is the number. I'm just wanting some feedback about the cabins. Thanks so much for any tips and suggestions.

All the insides are small. It's a high deck so you will feel movement

 

Be it the getaway the BA or the escape as they are the same ship. They are huge they clatter and clang and they make noise. Lol

 

I've been far aft on deck 11 and we survived but it was not calm by any means due to the structure of these ships

 

If you want a calmer ride then book deck 5 midship insides (which are not cheap ) or cruise the jewel class ...gem jewel pearl jade

We were in an inside cabin and they are small. The bathrooms are a very good size, flat screen tv's and comfy beds. We were on deck 14 near the front. I know its not the back of the ship but we did not experience any swaying or loud noises. We actually really liked the inside cabins and how private they are with the separate hallways.

Sorry, but the Escape is larger than the Getaway and Breakaway. It's the first of the Breakaway-Plus class, with the Joy and the Bliss being the second and third. It has an added deck, making it taller.

I didn't realize that

 

Did they improve the atrium space issue?

 

Did they enclose the casino?

 

These were some issues on the breakaway class

I was on the Escape recently in an aft cabin on 15. The motion was not bad. Had a very minor vibration and almost no roll. After the first two days at sea I didn't even notice the difference when we were docked compared to sailing

Hijacking your thread..... Are many of you saying you feel more movement on these huge ships? I would have thought the opposite. We have never sailed any of the newer giant ships- most recently the Dawn to Bermuda.

Have been in many balcony, ocean view and inside cabins on many different cruise lines. We enjoy the quiet of the inside cabins. Also, the air conditioning cools much better because of the lack of windows (radiant heat) and balcony doors letting in the hot and humid air. We also find it much easier to sleep without the howling wind from the balcony, the neighbors slamming the balcony doors at all hours of the night, and the constant conversations on the balcony, not to mention the smoking that is not allowed but still takes place on the balconies, or the sunlight shining into the cabin in the morning. We really don't miss the balcony or the ocean view cabins, and have turned down free upgrades to a balcony or ocean view.The further from the elevator the better...too much noise! You will have a great time on the Escape!

Could not agree more. For now we're done with balconies and above. We only use the cabin to sleep and change clothing. The less time we spend in there the more time to enjoy the ship. Not to mention the savings we use for other vacations. And like you said in all you're points above - we sleep like babies:halo:

Don't worry so much about location as it relates to motion no matter how many times it is repeated on here. Sure, being on higher decks or forward may slightly increase motion but it will not be perceivable. I have cruised for years with my wife who is very motion sensitive. When things get bad changing location does nothing. It isn't like you can be on deck 10 thinking 'this is rough' and then go to deck 3 and think 'this is much better'. It is a large ship with stabilizers, it doesn't ride the waves like a pontoon boat.
