While you guys discuss "waking the dead". I just want to put it out there...I've won on both the claw and key master.  Sorry for the interruption. 🙂 

Could never get a drink at the slots. Tried the casino bar for the freebie. No luck, ended up buying a drink.. Play the tables..Drinks galore!!!

Has anyone used this company for an all inclusive resort for a day pass in Freeport.   I found them on a Google search and they are about $15 Cheaper than the other sites.  Anyone have any information about them?  It just seems too good to be true.  Want to make sure they are legit. 

 

 

I have used them a few times at other destinations. Never had a problem and will use again.

I'd call again! I cancelled on March 8 for an April 8 cruise. Received my FCC certificate on March 16. 

Hopefully at the least it will get your FCC moving along.

Is what is as many rebook Easter/Spring Break(& others) for next yr as drives some prices higher. My Bookings on same Cruises/dates this and next yr Fall are all cheaper then was last 4yrs. Other dates, now received $3000 in price drops on 4 Cruises in last 3.5 weeks.

There actually was limited availability in certain cabin categories😮. Which does make me think that people may have already  rebooked for next yr. I'm not worried and will wait. This was to be our first RC cruise.

I find Royal Caribbean is least expensive the earlier you book. Did you book further out last year. $400 increase doesn't sound all that bad. 

I booked in October 2019 for April 2020. Had 1 price adjustment in December and that was it. Never saw it cheaper again.

Yeah we have three booked this year and have been looking at taking the 125% but it’s a losing proposition.  I take pride in finding really good deals and I guess all the deals I found are like 175% below market.  Also concerned what will happen to my money if RC files for bankruptcy protection.  They might still be sailing but what about the money I let them keep?  Not sure if it’s worth the 20% since it benefits me nothing.  

I'm stuck with the FCC. Cancelled a couple days before they did. Tried asking with no success. I too, take pride in finding the best deals. Makes me sick to my stomach thinking about losing my $. If I could I most certainly would take the refund. Hate having thousands of dollars tied up in credits.

So decided to look at next year. Same time frame (Easter), same ship, same itinerary, same cabin and surprise...The price is $400+ more 😪

they let you pay the overpriced transfer to the Airport, shame you NCL.

 

 

Especially since it was already going with the guest that were already disembarking.

Royal is the only line to extend the cancellations so far.  Carnival was suppose to announce today but have pushed an announcement until Monday.  NCL and Disney have not mentioned an announcement coming but I'm sure its coming.

I was on Royal for April. Cancelled before the cancellations and yep slapped myself for not waiting so that I could get a refund vs FCC. I saw the delay with carnival, another group of friends are waiting patiently. We all work in the school system. Our spring break is cancelled on top of the nasty virus..

Nothing! I'm not sailing but keeping a look out for friends awaiting cancellation announcement 🤞. No way can I even fathom them, to even consider, people coming into the city for departure. 

I can not even imagine that they will allow cruises to depart from NYC on 4/12.

Booked with a huge OTA.  Charge was direct to NCL  

One might think that you would at least get an email from OTA or NCL or both saying by the way your cruise is cancelled and we will be in touch with refund details.  How long does it take to write and send out an email like that to all impacted passengers?  Just a tiny bit of customer service can pay dividends down the road.

Read this.......

https://www.ncl.com/travel-alert/coronavirus

Guests who are booked on voyages with embarkation dates from March 18 to April 11, 2020 are asked to contact their travel professional or contact us for more information.
Guests will receive a 125% refund of the fare paid in the form of a future cruise credit, which can be applied toward any future cruise through December 31, 2022.

I certainly would start with the OTA. 

Same issue! I cancelled 3 days before announcement. Tried today to either get the 125% or refund. Denied on both parts. From reading here didn't think I would, but had to give it a shot. 🤔

It’s completely true-I think someone would be lying if they cruised now and weren’t worried at every sneeze when the drs say constantly those droplets are how it’s spread. I really hesitate to get on and worry the whole time...

Yep! I asked myself....self will you be able to sit comfortably at the bar, without taking out your clorox wipes and wiping it down? or not freak out in the theater if a person sitting within 10 ft of me coughs or sneezes? Just cancelled our very special April cruise. ☹️.

Are you doing it because you are sick?  I ask because there are multiple studies showing masks only protect others from you, and not the other way around.

Unless you have the new fancy special mask (which I doubt)...

Since the masks only protect others from you, if your sick. Wouldn't it make more sense that everyone wore one. Then no one would would be passing around there germs🤷‍♀️

loyola00" I know me....will be worried the entire time and not enjoy myself."

This is us! I want to go and relax. I'm worried that I will be so on alert to everything, that I will be stressed.

"Maybe someone logging on today has not read the many discussions before".

 

Thank you! Good to know! I've read that they do not have to be purchased prior as no discounts, but not the size matter. I'm good with 8 oz, but hubby will want more.

I was just saying to my husband. Don't take the advertised sale seriously because once you start clicking you won't find that price. It's like they have 1 cabin at the starting price and that's already booked before the sale starts 😕

I've seen both video's. The back view one (where the GF squats at a pillar) in my opinion is MORE proof that the GF knew the window was open. While just as distorted as the other one you can see GF lean over railing head downward and head turning left & right and down again before picking up child. It appears he had the child leaning against him on his right before moving her further out in front of him. Possible feet on window sill than sitting. She is held there seconds before she disappears. I truly believe it was a horrible accident, but one created by the GF who put her in the dangerous position. I think the possibility that had the lawsuit not been applied. The  accountable actions of what the GF did would have been left to a horrible tragedy.  

What I find horrifying after seeing video and pictures is the fact that he didn't put her on the railing as I thought but instead put her on the windowsill, beyond the railing, either standing or sitting (with her legs hanging outside the ship).  Complete negligence and reckless behavior by the grandfather.

Pier # 2 would be the only walkable one from 17th. street. All others are much too far.

Ahhhh Didn't even give the distance between the piers a thought. Just looked where pier 2 is. Thank you!. We will be utilizing uber/taxi LOL!

It was all sidewalk.  Had one street to cross (Walgreens on corner) but you had a crossing light and a couple of streets inside the port area. Met people getting off the ship and walking to their hotel  and some on their way to buy supplies. 

Thank you!  🙂

We stayed at the Holiday Inn express on 1 Dec. their shuttle for this date was $9 per person. We like to walk so walked to Pier 2 which took us 18 minutes.  Each pulled a  suitcase and walked leisurely

Thank you! Good to know. We like to stroll so a good possibility. Was it side walk most of the way?
