As a first time cruises, what are my chances of getting BBB or Senses massage session?

Just being nervous, I want to go all out for my niece/mom and looking to get into these things

I have never had trouble getting a spa treatment, and I never book in advance. You may not get your ideal day/time, but there should be massage sessions available. If you can't get one before the cruise, just check at Senses after you board. You may want to do that anyhow, since some treatments (for example, mother/daughter massages) aren't on the website for advance purchase but are on a menu at the spa.

Thanks! Do you have any experience with BBB?

Sea days are the worst for BBB. If trying to book on a port day you’ll be fine.

Just my opinion, but I would highly recommend finding a nice spa near your home to get the massages (or go to a spa, on land, during a different vacation). I've been to the spas on all of the DCL ships (except Wish) and I find their services to be subpar and overpriced. I find this to be true on every cruise ship, quite honestly.

We’re going on our first cruise (Wish) in November and I was able to book a BBB appointment! I did wait up the night our booking window opened (not sure if that was necessary).

One thing I noticed is that there’s no way to change your appointment time on the app. I was hoping to keep checking for a new day/time, but since each child is only allowed one appointment per cruise, you must first cancel then rebook to do a new availability search. I’m not willing to risk giving up the one we have without knowing for sure I’d get another, so I’m keeping it.
