Norwegian Dawn: Mauritius says cruise ship can dock after cholera scare - BBC News

We was on this cruise, and I had no issue with the food in the MDR, other than the sides being the same every night.

Yorkshire pudding, Buttered Potatoes and cauliflower cheese.

13 nights it did start to feel a little samey, and we had 4 nights eating in speciality - maybe that was the reason.

But we felt the food was good - I have attached a couple of photos - as always they never seem to do it justice - the lobster I was disappointed with.

We was on the Silhouette last week and can confirm we had lobster in Murano - which was cooked tableside.

Lobster in the MDR wasnt anything special - they had this has an extra bar the last Chic night.

The zero proof premium selections are NOT included in the Classic package.  Yes if you call and declare one is sober they will downgrade the classic package to a zero proof package for that person.

 

Children by there age are sober - so therefore they should be able to switch - bet they wont let them.

same here - cant access move up for Aug cruise.

I have always had notice via email if its been reject and accepted, although this has been with NCL in past.

i think there is a misudertanding.

I believe you are talking about the daily tips of $17.50 per day rather than the tips associated with the drinks package.

the all included package is better value than just buying the drinks package - even with the wifi which you say you wont use.

Thank you for the review.

Was following and enjoying the info and pics - looking forward to August when we get to sample what she has to offer.

Hi All

We are new to celebrity and have just booked for 5th Aug from Southampton - this is the 1st time cruising out of the UK despite living here.

Just checked my reservation and noticed that we have "celebrations" as showing on the reservation - we have no birthdays etc but we was told that that the booking included wifi, drinks and prepaid tips - is it this?

We did this last summer - we waited until most people had got off the ship, and the taxis knew most of the bigger fares had gone - then it was 25 euros for 4 in a taxi to the train station - then train to Pisa

it was cheaper than the NCL shuttle this way and we had plenty of time at Pisa.

On way back from station it was a case of flagging or getting a taxi which was dropping off.

We needed two taxis as there was 8 of us and it was no real hassle.

We would like to do hike on this route - however our arrival is 2.30pm in Malaga and it all aboard for 8.30pm - this is in August - do you think this is doable?

is the link - if it allows it.

Got back from this cruise on Saturday - and all I can say was the weather was perfect. Hot enough to enjoy the sunshine, and the pools where being used.

Defo 4 - we have just done a week on this cruise and my parents are doing two weeks and have 2 formal nights this week as well.

The formal nights are on the evenings of the sea days.

Got back from Azura on Saturday - it is 2 formal nights for a 7 day cruise.

I have checked with cruise line and you are exempt if under 18 - but refrain from wearing jeans.

Quick question - assume the formal night rules are the same across the fleet.

Would a 14 year old be expected to wear a jacket and tie.

TIA

my money is on Carnival Paradise - she was my first cruise - and she was tired back then.

I was quite specific with my question.

 

You were specific with your question, in the same way they were specific with their answer....

As long as you have checked in online - I think this aspect is impossible with a charter flight (I wish it could be done - if you manage please let me know).

I have been unable to check in on line, I fly chartered from Birmingham

My parents who are flying from Manchester have been able to check in online - there flight is scheduled.

I think this sums it up - check flight radar for your flight number....this will show if it flys the same route daily - this will be scheduled.

The other way is to do a false booking enquiry on Jet2 - to see what flights are available on the date you fly - if your flight isnt their then its either sold out or its chartered.

Thank you for the response.

Our flight is a charter, so guess no luck on that front.

Good to know though.

Thankyou to everyone who has taken the time to reply, we are staying in a hotel the night before ( Britannia or Doubletree ) so we can take advantage of using jet2 twilight check in , I did not want to book a hotel just in case flight was changed.

Many thanks once again.

Sorry what's the Jet2 twilight check in.... 

We are on the same cruise as you, but flight is from Birmingham and I am contemplating a hotel for the night before - if there is an option to check in early and leave the luggage that would make the hotel stay more attractive.

Just so you are aware of flight time.

We fly from Birmingham on 31st Dec and the flight is 6.15am Jet2 - based on that flight time, you would be looking at overnight stay, if traveling from NI

I was on the epic 7th Aug for a week.

I didnt see them doing anything to rectify the problem with the H20 and spice area.

I believe the issue is soot from the funnels, falling on customers - but cant confirm.

Given that no apparent work seems to be being done - this may continue for sometime.

As a result of the closure - the pool bar is very busy - they do try and do a pop up bar to ease - but for us the $50 OBC was a joke - has the impact was of such that the pool area is very busy.

Just got an upgrade advantage email

 NCL Epic sailing on 07th Aug Barcelona

From an inside on mid deck 11 to a large balcony on deck 12 (B6) for £130pp

Very pleased with this as this was just in the poor bid range.

Roll on Sunday
