    Dogs

    I have a service dog a Labadoodle because I am vision impaired. He gives me confidence to go out on my own. However, as my next cruise involves a 14 hours flight and I don’t know how dog friendly Japan is. He is staying at home and I will be using my white cane and husband. The whole idea of the crowds of people being around is frightening, but I’m sure it will be OK
  3. That is good to know, I love sweet potato fries
  4. 1965, Queen Mary , I was a child my father would never fly.
  5. I can believe it, I didn’t know that was the reason we were tending there. However, Ireland is such a beautiful country to visit, we not to let the ship soil it for us.
  6. I sail on NCL last May after a long break and hated it. Bad food and service and no where to sit. This ship on of the older ship and did not have a crows nest and only smaller venues where you could try and sit. We had an over night in Dublin which turned out to be a tender port, 45 minutes on tender plus a train journey. Every other time I have docked in Dublin with Cunard .NCL, now lack everything I cherish with HAL. Good food and service, relaxing venues to sit and eat and drink and great music to listen to . Plus amazing itineraries
  7. Is me, or am I person that does not work out, how to get the best out of a package, or is it worth it. I like the drinks package for peace of mind pay up front and then no worries. I will alway have the elite package or similar on other cruise lines, because you get a better choice when ordering wine. The only thing I take back to the cabin is a bottle of sparking water.
  8. If you have a drink package, can you give the voucher to someone else
  9. In the UK we call it bread and butter pudding, bread pudding is very different . I like bread and butter pudding and hate bread pudding.
  10. Hi, I am booked on Japan and Korea cruse October 2024 and we only have excursions showing for half the ports at the moment.
  11. I’m registered blind and have never had a problem at the buffet. The crew have always been very helpful in a non-patronising way.
  12. Tamarind Is worth every penny or every cent depending where you come from, IMHO
  13. I have been on many shore excursions provided by the ship, with many different cruise lines, in many different countries. There always seem to the two that arrive late smiling carry a lot of bags. The next excursion, you see them again, your heart sinks, followed by a lot of swear words in my head and yes you guessed late again at the stops. I find this Behavour to be very rude with no consideration to others, not a sociopath, but I’m narcissist.
  14. I have paid for the Deluxe drinks package for November, I drink a lot of Costa coffee and love a hot chocolate in the cold. My husband likes a large glass of wine at meals times, it saves keep asking for another I also like Baileys, you get a 50 ml servicing on the deluxe unlike the 25ml on the basic drinks package. I never add up what I have drank during the day, however, NCL this year year I had a £350 bill for just coffee and water which was not included in their Fee at Sea.
