Am contemplating buying a cruise next certificate on my upcoming cruise, but wanted to find out if the OBC is refundable or non-refundable?

TIA!

I would also love to see them!

Yes, you would take the route #7 bus. Just tell the driver as you board that you want to get off at Warwick.

The trip from Warwick to Horseshoe should take less than an hour as long as you're planning not to stop and swim at each beach.

As you walk down the entry road to Warwick the path would be to the right of the beach.

 

The path is easily identifiable. There is a satellite photo of the paths here.

Thanks so much!

Really looking forward to doing that :cool:

flowers44, we were thinking of taking the walk from Warwick Beach to Horseshoe when we are there in June.

Do we need to take the #7 bus and get off at Warwick Beach?

I'm assuming there's a path that's visible to take towards Horseshoe?

How long do you think it would take?

When we're at Warwick, would the path towards horseshoe be to the right?

Thanks!

In case anyone missed this posting...

Thank you!!!

My pleasure [emoji2]

Following...Anyone??

I have booked for the Hilton Garden Inn Ridgefield for a June sailing.

The total price for a one night stay, parking while we're on the ship, breakfast and free shuttle for $263. tax included.

Thanks for the review.

How long do the shows typically last?

TIA!

I recently used a cruise next certificate after booking :)

We're on the Jewel now, the Jan. 25-Feb. 5 Panama Canal cruise from Miami to LA. We transited the Canal yesterday, and it was simply fantastic! We're having a great time, and I'll write about the cruise when we return, but I found the following very interesting.

 

The larger main dining room, Tsar's Palace, is so brightly lit at dinner time as to be uninviting. Zero ambience, nothing like the Grand Pacific on the Gem. I asked the Restaurant Manager about this, and he said it's so the guests can read the menus! He said the average age of the passengers on board is 64.5, and they get complaints if they turn the lights down.

 

He also said there are a total of 17 passengers under the age of 21.

 

As I said, we're having a great time. The crew and staff are wonderful. But a bit less light in Tsar's would be better. :)

Guess it's time for the sunglasses :D

The system requires over 2 hours (I.e., 2 1/2 hours) after you book a dinner before it allows you to book a show. So if the show is 9 pm, the latest you can book dinner is 6:30.

Thanks so much! Didn't know the system would be that smart :p

First time on NCL :)

I was wondering how much time I should allow between reserving a Specialty restaurant or going to the MDR and booking shows?

Don't want to have to rush through a meal to get to a show :)

Thanks!

If you're leaving from the Manhattan port, then there is the Hilton Garden Inn in Ridgefield, New Jersey.

It gives you a night stay, parking while on your cruise, breakfast and transportation to and from the cruise port.

I have booked that for my June cruise.

Have a wonderful time!

Never had a wait for the slides. After dragging my old butt up all those steps I would have loved a small line to catch my breath. :D

That's too funny :p

Unfortunately, I fear that will be me as well, as my 14 year old son will be racing me to the top :D

We stayed at the Hilton Garden in Ridgefield for our cruise last September. It worked out great. Hotel is good and transportation to and from port worked out well. It cost about the same (maybe even a little less ) to stay there than it would have to park at the port for the week.

 

We've now tried three different options. We took car service once, we drove once and parked at pier and we stayed at Hilton Garden Inn once. From now on, we will alway stay there on their stay, park and cruise package. Highly recommend.

That's great to hear. Will definitely be staying there for our cruise!

Was wondering if the pool on the breakaway was salt water?

Also, do the slides typically have long lines? We will be going June 11th.

We were on the Carnival magic last June, and there were never really long lines for the slides, and the ship size wasn't too far off the Breakaway.

This will be our first cruise on Norwegian.

Thanks in advance!

I have read that the Hilton Garden Inn Ridgefield park in New Jersey has a sleep, park, cruise special. It includes breakfast and shuttle to and from the pier.

We are going to try that for our upcoming June cruise.

Hi Melissa,

Looks like you will be there the week before us.

In case you're still looking for diving, I came across Fantasea Bermuda,

and it looks like they have good ratings and prices are reasonable.

Have a wonderful time,

Karen

Not sure if I'm allowed to put a name of a booking agency on the forum here, but there's one that's giving OBC, Prepaid gratuities for passenger 1 & 2, along with the dash sale options. I had already booked with another agency, and am now kicking myself!

If you want the name of the agency, email me:

mail@alonsofamily.net

My husband did a dive there about 5 years ago, and loved it.

We are going back in June this year, and he's really looking forward to it.

We went on Celebrity the first time, and they cancelled the dive because there weren't enough people booked. He ended finding a dive at the hut just outside the ship where they book excursions.

We also went jet skiing with my 2 boy's who were about 7 & 12 at the time, and they still talk about how much fun they had!

We're thinking of doing that again this time :p

When are you going on your cruise? We will be going in June and trying NCL this time.

I'm new to NCL and same thing happened to me.

It just said they were merging the accounts together, but haven't had any problems.
