Short staffed info came directly from the staff, cabin steward mentioned it and so did the waitress at La Cucina. They both said over 200 additional crew members would be boarding the ship today, 11-14, once it docked. I have been on many NCL cruises and have NEVER seen the Garden Cafe left uncleaned after any meal. The bartender @ Tobacco Road also said most bars were "one man show" for this cruise (his words). I still enjoyed the cruise but did notice the lack for details. They also had glitches they were working on. On deck 8 they had to bring a humidifier to take care of a fowl

smell in the hallway.

Just got off today as well..no problem with with embarkation or debarkation but can see problem if most people boarded thru terminal B which is the first one you come across with. I got the message and reprinted travel docs and went to C.

Ship is very similar to the Getaway, same layout. I thought both shows were very good. Million Dollar Quartet was better. The problem with the bars was that the ship was short staffed. They were over 200 crew members short. The Bars and cleaning suffered. Garden Cafe left dirty one night.

Overall experience was good! Nice Ship!

Not for free, we had a Spa Mini Suite, deck 14, which grants you access to the Spa without an additional fee.

Just got off the EPIC in March and there is definitely a Teen Spa Menu...If you have the Spa Pass, which we did, you have to be 18 but my 17 yr old came in with me and like someone said as long as they stay low key they won't say anything to you..She was not able to take advantage of the Spa Specials, teens can only select from the Teen Menu:D
