Review summary

The Escape is a marvelous ship.  We have sailed on a variety of cruise lines and ships, and this one was the best so far.  We had a mini suite and were very pleased with the space and particularly the bathroom.  LOVED the full size shower!!  Food and service on board were excellent.  One downside of such a large ship though is that there are people everywhere.  We booked our shows before we left home, but we noticed that a number of people could not get into the shows they wanted because of the capacity constraints.

 

We are serious "non smokers", so we were a bit disappointed in the casino and areas surrounding it.  We had to hold our breath as we walked through or near that area.  It would be nice if Norwegian would simply ban smoking everywhere on the interior of the ship.

 

There is not a whole lot to see in the AVI and BVI.  We had not been to either before so enjoyed their simple beauty, but if you're really into action, etc, it might not be the best choice.  To each his own I guess.

 

We would definitely cruise Norwegian again.

We are leaving in a week and have only been able to book 2 shows. Wondering about the comedy club, dual piano bar are these shows you don't need to book?
