Review summary

As a veteran cruisers the Getaway was completely different from any other ship that we have been on.

 

We loved that different food venues.  The specialty restaurant's especially Cagney's was great.  However the coffee though out the ship was terrible.

Also the Tropicana restaurant is very noisy as they have musical entertainment while you are eating and you cannot hear the person across the table from you.

 

The cabins were a little short on storage but well appointed.  The room TV has limited stations MSNBC, CNBC, FoxNews and the BBC.  There is a movie channel with pay-per-view at 9.95.

 

The casino was set up very nicely with smokers and non smokers separated.

 

The one thing we did not like was the atrium with its large TV screen as it was always extremely noisy.

Great to hear from veterans who enjoy the Getaway. I am not really sure about the megaship concept and hope that the amenities are generous enough to accommodate the number of passengers. That isn't the impression that the blogs give. I am not sure if I want to compete for space self contained vessel with no place to escape to
