Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. I LOVE deck 17 because you are in the Haven proper and feel very connected to it. On this next sailing we are on deck 18, which, yes, the restaurant is up there, but I have a feeling we'll miss the deck 17 vibe.
  2. Check out this thread - she's got BTS pictures from last week and talks about the dinner with the officers (spoiler alert: it was not a great experience for her).
  3. I also find that I get way more engaged and active here on the NCL boards the closer we get to a sailing.
  4. I have no idea what you're talking about - lol
  5. There is a holding area - just a big room where you sit in uncomfortable chairs. Pretty sure you can't connect to the ship's wifi (heck, you can hardly do this when on board most of the time!) and cannot make restaurant reservations. If you sleep later and arrive later, it may mean that you stand in line longer waiting to get into the building. I prefer earlier and sit than later and stand.
  6. No; they got them on their own on their own cards.
  7. I am LOVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVING this thread. PEACHES!! 🤣🤣🤣
  8. The kids' cards. We'll see what happens next week ....
  9. So much this!! I'm not saying we're special people, or that we are any nicer than others, but I have found that when people ask about something here on the boards and I say we received it and 19 people blast me saying that's not in the policy and read this thread here or whatever, all I can say is that we got the canned sodas in our room - MANY OF THEM, no charge, last 2 sailings - our kids got any and all virgin drinks on the last 3+ sailings - MANY OF THEM, no charge, no issues. Could that change next time? Sure. Would we pitch a fit? Of course not. We'll smile, thank them for their consideration and move on and keep enjoying our sailing. I would agree though - we ask ... we smile ... we show respect. We have never been turned down on anything - and I don't think anything we asked for or received was super expensive or would get someone fired or anything like that.
  10. My point remains the same --- we've gotten any and all virgin drinks for the kids with the soda package. Perhaps it's one of those you may have a different outcome thing, but we had no issues on our last 3 sailings with the kids.
  11. Just saw this on another thread: You do what you have to in order to enhance your experience. ... and that's how I feel about the butler letter. Maybe what you "have to" or "feel you need to" or just plain "want to" to enhance your experience. Sounds like the butler letter is not everyone's cup of tea, but, it's worked for us thus far ...
