loupana Posted December 21, 2015 Author #232 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Thank you for this great review...Photos are just wow!I'm going on the getaway in January... For my information, What's the vibe pass? The Vibe Beach Club is a private area they sell limited passes for. A single pass is $99 per person. They sell private cabana's as well I'm not sure what they are going for now. I find the pool area very crowded on the Breakaway so I thought I would splurge on the Getaway. This area is just never crowded and guarantees me hot tub (I use that term loosely) access and comfortable loungers, along with a private bar.

Shocked91 Posted December 21, 2015 #234 Share Posted December 21, 2015 I have never used Uber, we are in the UK but coming to Miami next month. How do you go about tipping the driver? Does it have to be in cash? Hi.I had never used Uber until last weekend when I was in London.It's great and you don't have to worry about money as it comes straight out of your bank.I used it twice and never had a problem with it.The taxi would arrive in 3-4 minutes.The drivers were friendly as well.You don't have to tip them.I'm also going to Miami next month Jan 8th I arrive in Miami.

3CanadianBears Posted December 21, 2015 #235 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Thank you for this - we will soon be on the Getaway for our first cruise, and your pics are SO helpful. May seem like an odd question but.....how do the dart boards work in the pub? Is it pay to play? (from a family of "darters"). Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May seem like an odd question but.....how do the dart boards work in the pub? Is it pay to play? (from a family of "darters"). Cheers You know I didn't play but I watched people playing and never paid attention to how they started the game. I'm sure it's not free, I know you have to pay for pool and bowling. I'll guess and say you swipe your card, hopefully someone can correct me or confirm this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loupana Posted December 22, 2015 Author #246 Share Posted December 22, 2015 We listened to some piano music before the show in the Atrium Had a couple of more, what I like to call "Chocolate Milkshakes" I didn't keep track of how many of those Mudslides I had this week but it was a lot. Off to Legally Blond, it was funnier than I thought we enjoyed it Stage setup before the show...

loupana Posted December 22, 2015 Author #249 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Off to the room to finish packing and getting things ready for disembarkation in the morning. The next morning we got up at 6 AM watched the Carnival Breeze pass by our balcony around 6:30AM A light breakfast in the Garden Cafe, then we lined up in O'Sheehan's at around 7:20AM for easy walk off. I believe they started allowing us off around 7:40. It was quick and easy. Our last look at the Getaway... We had already book SAS Transportation back to FLL. Wish I went back with Uber. SAS were prompt and courteous, but they cram you in the minivan and I didn't have a seat. I had to lay on the side half leaning on my wife in the very back and stretched out down the right side aisle. I can't remember the exact time but we were at the FLL airport before 9AM, timing was good but what an uncomfortable ride. To conclude we had an amazing time, we found service and food in the Main Dining rooms on Getaway better than Escape, but the Escape wins hands down as our favorite NCL ship. They seemed to update the right things such as pool deck, hot tubs on deck 19 for general public. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend either ship, but having said that I don't know when we'll sail NCL again. There are just some others I want to try. Our first Carnival Cruise coming up in May on Vista. Would like to try Princess and I'm dying to get on Anthem of the Seas since Quantum is our favorite ship to date. Oops, am I allowed that final statement this is a NCL thread... Thanks for following... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
