Breakaway to Bermuda

I had the double cut pork chop in the Havens restaurant on embarkation lunch last October on the Breakaway. I took a while to be prepared and all I wanted to do was look around the Haven area and our suite. When it came... It was worth the wait.

 

These posting are great.

 

Thank you for taking the time to post them!

"Escape the Big Top" turned out to be challenging and fun. it is well worth a try. Sells out very fast. They let standbys in 10 minutes to show time.

 

There were 11 teams of 8 people in our room.

 

Solve the puzzles to get out before the 45 minute timer expires.

 

One team solved the mystery at the 38 minute mark. And won a prize.

Interesting, only about 200 more kids than when I sailed in September. How is the Haven in that regard?

Thanks, pictures are always great !!

 

On Platinum BTS tour, still on (Sea) Day #2 - this morning @10 AM (or, was it 9 AM) ... how long did that last ? I went once on the BA but DW didn't go, so, next time - will have to decide whether to go with her and/or skip the CC Meet & Mingle (do one or another, but both.) Luckily for the Gem, we managed (and ship's Group Event) to do both as Platinum BTS tour was held on morning of Day 6 at 9 AM (Sea Day)

 

Looks like BA's satellite internet is working very nicely for others and you (almost always) with all the uploads ... thumbs up for NCL (see if you can run some speedtest & benchmark to post, since you probably have the unlimited plan.)

 

What's the one-time charge currently for (paid) iConcierge App on BA?

What sort of internet plans & pricing are being offered currently?

Has the new 3-tiered WiFi plan been rolled out (with the basic, social media option)?

The platinum BTS was done today, Day 2, first sea day at 10 am. 28 guests from a long list of Platinum and above signed up. They did 2 groups of 14. We had a chatty group, so our tour ran a little over 90 minutes.

 

 

For those on next week's cruise, they mentioned that 3 of the 6 Burn the Floor couples are leaving at the end of this week and 3 new couples will be boarding. Next Monday will be the first time the group will be performing together.

 

 

The platinum plus officers dinner is on Friday night (Bermuda departure day).

You would have to add $30 to the unlimited plan for a full 7 days. We had multiple free internet minutes which we got a [small] credit for against an unlimited plan.

Canvas By U

Look in your freestyle daily for the sign up time and location on embarkation afternoon. Only 12 seats per session and they sell out very fast

Can you let us know how much the painting session is and how much time is allotted - it looks like so much fun!

 

Thanks again and enjoy!

Canvas by U (google it) was $35. The session is 1 hour. All supplies (except the artistic talent) provided including an apron and gloves.

 

On This cruise, the sign up was in the library (atrium to the right of the screen) after sailaway. Classes filled fast. Standby for noshows.
