Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We are used to an inside stateroom, so the space and storage was much bigger than we were expecting. It made the trip far more enjoyable.

Ship tip

Learn the stairwells to find locations easier and follow the fish to the front.

Disembarkation

Signage was clear once we got to the right floor. We couldn't find the priority disembarkation location so we had to stand in line for carry-off for 40 minutes.

Glad you had a great cruise. I was on the Escape the week after Thanksgiving and it was awesome. Will be on The Epic January 23. 2021. Looking forward to another great week.
