Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. It definitely helps reduce the time you have to wait in customs. We just received our cards 2 weeks ago. You can apply but may not have enough time to complete the process before you travel. There are very few Global entry interview centers that are currently open with available appointments. We live in North Carolina and had to fly to Miami airport to get an interview appointment as that was the closest to us that was open. You apply, then get pre approved. That can take several weeks. Once pre approved you can then schedule an appointment for your interview. We were told at the interview appointment that we had been approved and our card came in the mail a few weeks later. If you get pre approved I think you can also complete your Global Entry interview when you return to the US. I don’t know exactly how it works or if it cuts down time on your Customs wait. If you decide to do it you will want to start the process immediately.
  2. Unless someone makes a special exception, you will not be able to put lounges on your balcony. There is very little space and it is not that easy to get them to and from different balconies.
  3. Enjoying your review. My husband and I will be on the Getaway August 8 from London to Lisbon, Portugal.
  4. Thank you, I think this is the direction we are leaning towards. We are looking at international Friends day tours. They offer London hotel to Southampton hotel transportation. We are going to be in Southampton for 2 days before we leave for our 10 day cruise that ends in Lisbon, Portugal
  5. Any suggestions on transportation options for London to Southampton? We will be traveling from the United States to London, where we will be staying for 4 days. We are looking for a way to get from our London hotel to our Southampton hotel, where we are planning to stay for two days until our NCL cruise.
  6. Most drinks on a cruise are much more than $7
  7. I will be happy to report back about it, only 341 days to go 😁
  8. Thank you for the video. One of the reasons I am looking for specific information on 14134 is because I have read that some of these cabins have a floor to ceiling pole in the middle of the room in front of the jacuzzi. There is conflicting information on google about which cabins have this and which don’t. I appreciate the information that has been shared.
  9. It’s actually listed as a HI on my invoice. It is called The Haven Penthouse Suite with Balcony STATEROOM: 14134 DECK #: 14 CATEGORY: APPROX SIZE: 309 Sq Ft VIEW: The Haven
  10. I was asking for a bit of assistance from anyone who may have stayed in this cabin. I am smart enough to do a google search before I posted this. I was looking for recent first person experience rather than the conflicting information on google about this cabin.
  11. We were scheduled on the Viva August of 2023. That cruise has been canceled by NCL because the new ship will not be ready in time. We have chosen to take NCL’s offer to move us from the Viva to the Getaway; they choose the cabin in the same category. Today I looked at my summary for this trip and can now see my new cabin number😁. We have been assigned cabin 14134, which is a Haven penthouse. I am looking for any photos or information for this cabin. I would like to know if it still has the jacuzzi tub in the room after the 2019 update and if it has a pole in the middle of the room near the jacuzzi. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
  12. If you are in a suite or The Haven that comes with a butler, the answer is yes. You contact your butler for this. For a regular cabin you have the option to order from the fixed room service menu.
  13. I was able to upgrade just my husband on our upcoming August 2023 cruise. When I clicked on the upgrade I only checked the box next to his name. I was able to checkout and pay for just him.
