Review summary

The Escape is a beautiful ship but has some issues to work out. The food was great-beautiful presentation and tasted fantastic.

 

At times I thought there could have been more crew to help out in dining rooms. The ones there seemed overtaxed. 

 

The shows we saw were all very good. The reservation system left a lot to be desired. I also don't like the idea of charging for shows. Seems to be a new trend of charging for every little thing.

 

internet was slow but haven't found a ship with good internet yet. You use all your minutes up waiting for it to work.

 

i loved the whole Waterfront concept. It was a great area to find a quiet spot to read or nap.

I agree with everything you said. On Friday night our waitress barely could get to our table because she was attending a group of ten and only took our orders and then we never saw her again. Another waiter brought our courses.
