  1. Hello!

     

    We booked our Nov. 2016 cruise on the Jewel with a TA, however we were hoping to arrange our pre-cruise hotel and transfer to port with NCL. We are traveling with others that booked with a PCC so we want to try and get the same transfer to port and stay at the same hotel.

     

    Is this possible, has anyone done this? If so, how did you go about doing so.

     

    Thanks!

  2. We've sailed in 10664 twice now. The only noise and vibration issues we experienced were during docking. Honestly though, we didn't find it at all annoying. Other than that, nothing at all. As for the weather, depends on where you're sailing. We sailed to the Caribbean last November and it was wonderful!

     

    Thanks!! We are sailing in November as well. 13-20! We have been to the Riviera Maya in August and it was a bit too hot so we are hoping for a little more bearable heat!! Thank you!

  3. I sailed in an aft suite on the Jewel years ago when she was new and in the mediterranean. It was the best location. I didn't think it was noisy. I just booked the Jewel again for Mexico and we are aft again, this time in a mini suite. Wish I could be back in the suite we had. Relax and enjoy your first cruise. You will get hooked and this will definitely be the beginning of many more cruises.

     

    Thanks Dorthy! When do you sail?

  4. Hello!

     

    I am new to cruising, and have booked a Aft Penthouse Suite (non-haven) on the Jewel for Nov. 2016.

     

    I am now obsessively pouring over threads to prepare myself as well as I can for what to expect, and how to not look like an obvious rookie cruiser when it's time for our trip =)

     

    In light of that, can anyone advise if we will be subjected to any above average noise or vibrations in our cabin, particularly when the ship is docking. I have read this is an issue in Aft cabins other ships and just want to know what I should expect.

     

    **As a side note, anyone who has cruised this itinerary on the Jewel in November, can you comment on the weather and sea conditions? Or suggest me to a thread that has that info. NO luck in finding what I'm looking for.

     

    Thanks again!!!

  5. For at least 2 nights we are dressed and ready for our night out, before sunset and enjoy wine on our balcony while we watch the sun set. (and saying a silent thank you that we get to witness such wonder in such a setting)

     

    I love this idea and think we might implement this as a "ritual". We're cruising for the first time and staying in a SF Suite on the Jewel, can you have glasses of wine sent to the room? Or do you bring your own bottle or grab a glass and then head back to your balcony?

     

    Thanks =)
