Turns out, this solos-only space has the very best cup of complimentary coffee on board.
It also worked wonderfully from my inside cabin.
Personally, I found sailing for days with no land in sight both relaxing and thrilling.

For me, the over-the-counter medicines I packed were completely effective.Phew!
WhileGetawayisnt one of the newest Norwegian ships, I found it by-and-large to be comfortable and contemporary.
Going the other way wouldve let me gain rather than lose an hour of sleep most nights.

Ill have to keep that in mind for mynext repositioning cruise.
Now, heres a closer look at the staterooms, amenities, food, and other features onNorwegian Getaway.
As a solo traveler, I went the other direction, reserving an inside cabin.

(Getawayhas 59 studio staterooms and 20 solo balcony cabins for single travelers.)
Instead, I was offered solo pricing on a slightly larger interior cabin.
There are also Italian, Brazilian, and French restaurants on board.

(Next time, I would not go on a busy holiday weekend!).
Generally, the days were well organized and transport ran smoothly.
The only major hiccup seemed to be in Dun Laoghaire, Ireland.

Amenities and Entertainment
On a ship of this size, theresalwayssomething to do.
Elsewhere, Headliners Comedy Club had stand-up acts as well as an upbeat dueling pianos show.
But, on other trips,Getawaycould be an ideal option for families.
Theres also a kid-specific aqua park, and a series of five multistory waterslides.
The ship can accommodate most wheelchairs and mobility scooters, and all dining and bar venues are accessible.
With the exception of Decks 17 and 18, all have guest elevator access.
Gangways for embarking and disembarking are wide enough to accommodate most mobility scooters and wheelchairs.
