FREE Bottled Water on NCL???

NCL just called me and told me they will provide bottled water for FREE so I can mix baby formula after I emailed Guest Relations for authorization to bring my own. I asked for something in writing because nothing is ever free. [emoji848] Anyone hear this?

They provide distilled water for c-pap machines.....really don't know why you'd need "bottled" water to mix formula for a 6 month old....

That's great that they will do that for you! I hope it really happens for you.

The current premium all inclusive cruise deal for Europeans includes 1 bottle of water per day per guest. We got to our room last week on the Jade and had 20 bottles of water waiting as it was a 10 day cruise. We drank 7 of them and left the rest in case our room steward and friends wanted it.

NCL emailed me a document with the free water and other perks a week after I booked as I asked for documentation due to booking with a TA for the first time.

I think it's seen as a "special needs" for the baby.

Yes, and as Velvetwater indicates, it could be due to the new All in one European/UK promotion.

Because of your medical need they will provide it for you. In the end the water for you to make bottles scosts them a lot less than food for another passenger.

Because bottled water is my preference, especially for convenience. I rather not have to wait at a bar to restaurant to get water when my child is hungry.

You don't have to explain yourself! I remember reading about this when they no longer allowed bringing it yourself. I can't direct you to a thread on it, but I've read a couple of times that they'll provide water for formula and C-PAP machines. The key is contacting the Access Desk.

Thanks for posting this! We were going to fought up the money for bottles for our daughter, just emailed them hoping to get it provided.

Hi arianac27,

We will provide complimentary distilled water for those guests who require c-pap machines. Guests who require bottled water or specialized nursing water for infant formula may bring that onboard themselves if they choose, however, we cannot provide that water complimentary on board.

Please feel free to reach out to our Guest Relations team at 1.800.327.7030 if you any further questions. Thanks!

Thank you NCL!

That is what I thought. The rep that called me back yesterday gave me the wrong information then.

I was approved to bring Milk, and Juice and bottled water on-board for my daughter. On your edocs, you will see a Liquid Exemption icon. This is your documented notification that it was approved. I still purchased the over-priced 24pk of water for our stateroom.

Nice of NCL to respond directly to this thread.

Yeah, but their reply was made in 2017 .... I haven't seen them comment much at all anymore. :(

Someone mentioned buying water for your room through NCL. I looked at my account and that doesn't seem to be offered. Or did I just overlook it?

Does anyone know what the approximate cost is?

For me it was under beverage package - 24 pack for $53.94 was the best deal. I didn't know they let you bring your own water for infants if you get an exception. I wonder, can I cancel my bottle water order? I bought it for my little 6 month old baby.

Yes. Give NCL a call.

If I was crusing with an infant, I would only use bottled water for formula as well. Sometimes the water may have additives that aren't safe for an infant.

as an environmental professional, I can tell you that the ship's water has to meet a much higher standard than bottled water does.
