Thanks for everyone’s feedback. I have paid the DSC and will tip extra when I feel it is appropriately deserved.

May I be so bold as to ask what the DSC means? I will, in turn, look for the NCL forum you mentioned. Feel free to ask me any wine question as that is my regular banter.

Hi All,

We are first timers doing the NCL Baltic cruise booked in the Haven and I am confused about the service charge they want you to prepay. When I spoke to my cruise consultant he said he tips beyond the service charge when in the Haven section on NCL. So, my question is, do we just bypass the service charge fee and tip according to service? I am from the service industry so TIPS to me means “to insure proper service” so I have no problem tipping well, I just want to clarify.

Thanks so much BostonGal35!

Hi All,

First time cruising ever! We are doing the Baltic Sea Cruise in Aug/September. The Norwegian cruise website says allow 5 hours from port to airport. We reserved a haven spa suite which is supposed to give us priority embarkation and debarkation. The boat shows 7AM debarkation so we should take a flight after 12PM, however, I would really like to take the 10:20AM flight out of Copenhagen. So, my question is, would this flight be too risky leaving that early? If so, are you pushed to get off at exactly 7AM? The next flight is 2PM and I don't want to sit at the airport that long. Thanks so much!
