True. Those are the times I will be glad I have two layers between my butt and the cushion! :-0

Thank you for another fabulous review! This has been a busy week, bouncing between you and Saint Greg on the Magic. And a wonderful escape from the cold and snow here in Buffalo. So, good bye for now, until your next cruise.

Please don't forget to wake the sleepers up in the observation lounge.  They may have flights to catch.

Thanks for taking us along.  Safe travels home.

Welcome back Sid!

Well done, another excellent and relevant review!

We are on the same cruise in Feb, on the Encore too.

Safe travels to your home.

See you on the boards. 😊

Wonderful review as usual, Sid!  I’m not a fan of the Encore - it’s a gorgeous ship, but  don’t like the removal of deck space for the go carts and laser tag.  I had originally booked Encore for our thanksgiving cruise, but cancelled when I found out my child wouldn’t be tall enough to drive the carts...plus I don’t really want to spend extra money on laser tag and go carts and hear my kid beg to do them all the time 🤷🏻‍♀️.

 

I’ll stick to the Escape, Breakaway, and Getaway- we like the ropes course, rock wall, Spice H2O, etc.  Glad you are enjoying your trip- the ports look fabulous!!  Thank you for taking time out of your trip to give us this live report!

what is the height requirement?

LOL!  If you notice, this is a COUCH.  It is designed for multiple people to SIT on.  It is not a "chaise" (although the chaise clientele are disgusting as well). It is not a bed.

Sleeping on a "couch" that doesn't belong to you, is truly gross and self-absorbed.

If I ever sail on one of these ships, I would have no problem getting their attention and saying "Excuse me please, I would like to sit here".  Now that, would be a documentary in itself,  LOL!

Good grief...

JMO🙂

I could not agree more.  It is beyond rude to lay on a couch in public.  I can't imagine ever doing this is my life ever.  It would disturb me to see this so I hope we have no passengers like this when I sail next summer!!!

Thank you so much for sharing your review, amazing photos and great info.  My trip is over a year away on this beautiful ship. She won't be as new by then.  Not sure I can wait that long!  Have a safe trip home.
