I'm booked in a mini-suite, deck 13, starboard, in October. The NCL planner said our cabin was only slightly bigger (about 40 sf) and that our bath would be noticeably different in that it is larger than balcony room, has two sinks and a rain shower with several shower heads. We requested deck 13 as so many reviews talked of noise from above (or below, depending on location) and we wanted to be on a deck with cabins both above and below us.

I couldn't help but notice the small tabletop fan in your cabin...did you bring that from home? I sleep with a fan every night and am considering bringing mine ...would rather not have to but I need the airflow - maybe I can get by with leaving the balcony door open a bit...
Great review. Thanks for taking the time to post.

Does the texting and calling others on the ship work with both iOS and Android? I have an iPhone and everyone else I am travelling with has Androids.
from GooglePlay App description: "*The Phone calling features are available on iPhone only. However, the Messenger feature is available on both iPhone and iPad."
ETA: Looks like that's just phone calling back home...not onboard

Sort of glad I found my new favorite drink on the last day - vodka soda with cucumber [emoji4].
That sounds so refreshing! Thank you again for taking time to share your cruise with us. I've enjoyed every post and am so excited for our first ever cruise in October :)

Answer is Yes. You don't have to purchase the text/call plan. The app will automatically connect to the ships WIFI once onboard and allow you to make reservations for dining/entertainment etc. granted space is available
I've used the app on Epic, Getaway and Escape and it's pretty neat. Definitely convenient
Thank you!

So I mastered the ropes course and whoa that was fun!!! So glad I got past that first plank and stuck to it. Yay me!
Yay you! I'm hoping to try new things on this cruise but not sure I can handle the ropes. Heights are not my friend.
Do you know if you can make dinner reservations with iConcierge if you only download the app but do not purchase the texting/call option? I know you can view dailies but I'm not sure if you can do more than just look.
Loving your review!

Enjoying your review - stayed up late last night to read it! Thanks for taking the time to post.

We are staying at the Hyatt Regency Miami and there is a CVS two blocks away where we picked up a case of water.
Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app
Thanks! Just looked that up on Google and we'll be almost next door at the Holiday Inn.
I hope you have a lovely time!

Not sure where to post this but I went to Norwegian home page today and saw an OBC Promo (up to $500) ending tomorrow... only thing was, I hadn't heard/seen anything about it and I booked us 2 weeks ago. Researched a bit and it looked like our fare/cabin should qualify. Just called my Norwegian Cruise Planner and sure enough, we were qualified. He made the change and we just got a $140 OBC in addition to our UBP and SDP. :)
ETA - just learned this is a DASH SALE. Ends tomorrow!

Following! I'm curious if there's someplace near port to purchase a case of water? We'll be flying in from NY and would rather buy there than haul it with us.
Enjoy!!

I think most people put the kindle under their towel and go swim. Maybe I should be more worried, but generally things are safe.
Thanks. That's what I do at the beach...was hoping it was the same for a ship.
-
Thank you so much for this review! It was so helpful and a pleasure to read and makes me all the more excited for mine!
Your girls are adorable.
-
Thanks for the short & sweet. Really looking forward to my first cruise!
Can anyone tell me what people generally do during the day by the pool with say their Kindle and/or cell phone? I'm not really sure what to do with it when I go for a hop in the water or down the slides. Are there lockers near the pool?
-
What do people do when they go ride the slides? Do you just leave your stuff? It's just me and DH traveling so if we want to go together.... I've read they won't let you go down the slide with ANYTHING in your pocket but I'm assuming husband can keep our cruise cards on him?? I've found these forums to be so helpful with insight. We're first time cruisers and really have no idea. TIA

Thanks so much for posting these. My first cruise will be in October and I have no idea on what life is like on board. This is really helpful.
-
My very first post and I want to use it to thank you for your Live Review. DH and I don't sail until October but we just booked yesterday so we're very excited! We're first time cruisers and your pictures and comments are very much appreciated!
My week on the Escape - March 19th - 26th
in Norwegian Cruise Line

Bless you for the tip on the slide-stopping-tankini! That's my suit of choice...
Just love your review ~ I'm so ready for my cruise!
