Is this thread still alive? We have 3 cruises coming up for April-May.Wondering how far ahead I should reach out to the Upsell Fairy? It seems like these trying times with reduced capacities it would make sense to get as many dollars from those already booked to sail by selling up from category to category.

ALSO, does UpSell contact me or must I be proactive and reach out to them. In all of our years with NCL and reaching Plat+, we have never had an offer from NCL to Upsell / Upgrade.

I truely enjoyed your video (trying not to get off topic but I loved the music you used in background. (can I ask whom & what?) I'd really like to get that on my player and it will get me back in the cruising mood when ever I loose my way. ;)

Ship: Breakaway

Deck -15 Forward Port Side

Cabin: 15110

Category - 2 bedroom suite in the Haven

Issues to report - N/A suite was perfect!

2nd bedroom was able to accommodate 2 grown teenagers - My son is 20 years old and 6ft tall - My daughter is 17 years old and 5ft/5 inches tall. Each had sufficient space for their things.

 

Hope it's okay to post a video that I made of our suite!

Anyone have any late breaking actual dates and itineraries yet. I heard things were supposed to get released Jan 10 then that was moved to the 18th. I don't see a BLISS CC page yet. Just looking for segments and potential cabin placement early. :cool:

Obviously by now I have all the info I needed. I just wanted to apologise for not getting back to your response. Cruises, vacations and holidays ... basically LIFE just got in the way. We now have EPIC Rome-Barcelona, EPIC Barcelona-Port Canaveral for fall 2017 then Spirit for Barcelona-Canary Islands for spring 2018. Then JADE Northern TA in fall 2018 .... so far.

Happy travels, thanks again!

What are you looking for, because I booked MONTHS ago.

Is there any word on when NCL will release dates for 2018 for cruises other than Hawaii?

... here we are in late October 2016 and I still am not seeing anything for the beginning of 2018 (Jan - April) other than Hawaii which seems to keep going right out into 2019!!!! Really? :confused:

Thanks for sharing Lloyd, things are coming together nicely. I see our cabin directly fwd right under the bridge wing. I don't think I see any support strut that others have mentioned as a potential obstruction.

Sure, but you do not need two identical signatures for that. ;)

Thanks for that Demonyte. I tried to simplify and apparently complicated our 'signature'. Back to the drawing board :(

>>> no signature for now ... :cool:

LOTS of questions to be asked but still so far out. First I want to get my NCL ESCAPE cruise into the Past Cruises column. We are still putting finishing touches on our planned shore activities [mainly those for the 2 occasions we get thrown off the ship for agents & VIPs to get a chance for their 'look and see']. We have the first 5 'pay' legs all booked, air & hotels all booked. Awaiting the on-line reservations to become available and get those finalized.

I am guessing that we may hear a little more about Bliss this fall [maybe on board the ESCAPE], it will then be about 18 months before she is launched so I anticipate booking opportunities to start around then. I will book a cabin based on what I see during the Escape cabin crawl. Since both ships are Breakaway Plus class I believe they will be very similar.

Booked ESCAPE from Hamburg Oct 25 Balcony all the way through to Nov 14 same cabin BUT Then we are moving up to a Haven Forward Facing Balcony to finish off the trip. Not sure what to expect either but that's part of the mystery for our first Inaugural sailing.

As a Latitudes member I was able to call and reserve this morning, my travel agent will follow up on my behalf to complete the reservation. Cruising out of Miami Nov 14 2015 (Inaugural cruise out of Miami?).

A few details available at http://www.escape.ncl.com but I had to call to book.
