  1. Yes, very possible to share at Food Republic and the places the Keith Jenner mentions since it is specifically 4 items.  Not possible for 2 people to share one at some place like Le Bistro ordering one entree and tons of apps and desserts.

  2. Thanks we stayed on 17 in a H2 last year on the Escape and loved it other than the wind.  This time was going to go aft, but changed to a 2 bedroom, which I have stayed in on other ships, just not Escape..  I love the aft and the balcony on the aft, but miss being in the courtyard.  I’ve waffled more times back and forth on this cruise on room type than any other trip. 

  3. Last few trips on the Getaway and Escape, Howl at the Moon was horrible,  pretty empty at night and dueling piano bars are only fun with a big crowd.  15 to 20 people listening just doesn’t do it.  But IMHO, they couldn’t sing, especially the women they had on stage.  It was uncomfortable listening to the few songs we stayed for.  I can see them doing something better with the space  since it was empty.  The only time it was good was if the Choir of Man or Syd’s Norman’s cast made an impromptu appearance.

  4. We were escorted down every show on the Getaway to Syd’s.  Like another poster mentioned, the concierge had a sign out every day on what time to meet in the evenings for Syd’s, theater shows, etc.  We had to meet 45min to an hour before each show time.  So the Haven wasn’t getting in last minute or anything like that.  Instead of waiting in line outside, we got to wait inside.  But we still had to get there early.

  5. Thanks, I know there were previous discussions on this but the search feature never works well for me.  Thanks for the info!  We prefer the bathroom with the view outside for the layout, and also prefer the bedroom to be dark, so the few times we stayed aft, we always tried to get these.

  6. On the Escape which decks have the deepest balconies?  I believe it went 9, then 12, but didn’t know from there.  Also, which Haven aft floors have the configuration with the bathroom towards the outside of the room (picture window in the bath looking out towards the ocean).  Thanks!

  7. Adding my name to the degenerate gamblers club who doesn’t pay full price for the Haven.  I’ve never been comped a Haven room, but am comped everything from ocean view to club balcony and then pay to upgrade.  Our next cruise cost us less than the price of an ocean view for an H6 (2 bedroom family) all in.  Usually start with a land based comp, I let them know what I want to upgrade to, then they look up my play on the ship, and I’ve never been disappointed with the price.  Although it is a goal to be comped the Haven outright!

  8. I don’t understand this thread at all.  It seems like the people that are arguing against the Haven are using that to justify their opinion is the better one because they are not elitists.....which in itself is elitist.  If you want to book Haven book it, if you don’t, don’t.  Sheesh.
