That is really neat, hadn't thought of doing that on my balcony.

Need to give this a watch later, only done it on carnival and they didn't allow cameras.

The OV rooms could be bidding too, which would free up a cabin to put your GTY.
I think you can pull your bid anytime before they accept it.
I'm not 100%, but on my last cruise I kind of recall my accepted bid upgrade being assigned before my parent's inside GTY.

I think with school out, the last minute deals haven't been quite as good.

$ 22 for ONE lounger or two? So expensive either way

Just one, they have a captive audience...

Interested to know myself and if the cruise were actually under $500 with all taxes, could it apply towards DSC?
-
Is it possible to book a balcony with a nearby interior room?

Did you happen to get a schedule of free ferry to St George?
That has been posted in a few other trip reports, on mobile or I would search up a link for you.

Would PCC be able to help with booking guarantees? Just wondering, on my last trip, my party ended up on two different floors. Which was fine, but wondering if going thru a PCC would have helped us be closer/same muster station.

At some of the tourist gift shops, they already sell canned air! Lol

Cannot carry on any sodas/waters. There are some shows/meals that are extra cost. Felt like there was lots of extra specialty dining choices on NCL, but I was fine eating at their MDR or the buffet or O'Sheehan's (bar/pub kinda feel with a rather fixed menu, but I liked it). They have multiple MDRs, one is more formal attire and one is just come as you are (they serve the same menu). You aren't assigned a dining time, can just go whenever or make a reservation for whatever time you desire.
Their shows/comedians (even complementary ones) have reservations, the app/online doesn't show all the spots so that was annoying.... You could standby if you didn't have a reservation.

Another question: which N.Y. pier does the Escape leave from for the Bermuda cruises?

The Escape prices out of NYC have been reliably dropping in all categories prior to sailing. Many of the customers for NE ports don’t fly in so they don’t book early, thus cabins remains vacant until discounted
That makes sense... I was thinking with summer, kids out of school, they wouldn't drop as much. I did notice for the the Escape sailing leaving today, it dropped a ton then it actually went back up! I went on a last minute rate for Escape at the end of April. Looking to do another (Escape or Dawn), but thought I would need to wait until Fall for the prices to drop a lot.

Anything out of NYC this summer ... yes, book late.
Why do you say that?

Good tip, I usually cruise out of NY and not sure if I have noticed vending machines after security. Will keep an eye out next time, a few cokes on my cruise would be nice.

What kind of room? My parents were in an inside last cruise and no towel animals or ice buckets for them. My balcony got ice and I had towel animals too. Neither are deal breakers for me, but I appreciated them.
-
Last month, booked a last minute for an indoor. Had the option to bid, so I bid a little and won an upgrade to a balcony. Basically lets you bid up to 3 categories from what you have booked.

I would also skip the main theater show, "The Brat Pack: For the Record."
I enjoyed After Midnight. There was lot of tap dancing and while it could be boring for a 12 year, by no means was it inappropriate.
Don't believe they have the brat pack anymore.
The entertainment isn't that great to be honest for a 12 year old, but there are lots of activities I'm sure she'll enjoy. There is a ropes course and a few different water slides. They have numerous little games/quizzes type things each day in the atrium.

I see them now!

We booked a guarantee on our last cruise and we were able to bid.
Same here, I booked about a week out and had the option to bid like almost right away.

The cruise line should retrieve your passport and leave it with the port agent.
Hope I never miss my ship departing, but how would they even know if the passport is in your room/safe? Would it be standard procedure for them to check your stateroom if you don't make it back?
-
If you don't make it back to the ship on time, passport would make it easier to fly home?

Thank you for posting all this!
Curious if there was Indian Food in the Garden Cafe ? It’s always something I look forward to on NCL! Can’t wait for my July cruise to Bermuda!
They usually had at least one curry type dish, sometimes more, and sometimes roti on request. They had long grain rice usually as well. Indian isn't my thing so I didn't pay much attention to it.

NCL Escape Review - 1 Month Later
in Norwegian Cruise Line
Posted
Yea, sounds like they drove by it and were expecting to see some hot neon pinkness.
My dad even conceded it was impressive after visiting and we only went a little bit of the way over to the coves on the left (we have beaches somewhat locally and was he in the mindset of they connect to the same ocean, what is so special?).
I do agree with the OP about the running track being along side some smoking areas. Hard to hold your breath even while just walking past those.
I went on the same cruise a few months ago and had a pleasant time, looking forward to snagging a deal to go again in the fall. I do hope that "comedy magician" is off the ship by then. He was the worst entertainer by far. After Midnight wasn't really my thing, but it was a well done production. I don't know why OP said it was poor.
