Jumping Ship: Celebrity to NCL
Palmetto Pilot replied to DoubleEntry's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
I think the Royal Caribbean group is pricing themself out as a whole. Carnival and NCL are absolutely more of a value, at least on paper. -
As an airline pilot there is nothing more I despise than drone operators.

Palmetto Pilot replied to mitsugirly's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
We've done RCCL and Carnival in the meantime but we need a change. Back to where it started, I suppose. -
MITSUGIRLY's ENCORE pictorial and extensive REVIEW
Palmetto Pilot replied to mitsugirly's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
I'm really enjoying your review. We're on the Encore in a week for our anniversary and NYE. My last NCL cruise was the Norway and Norwegian Sea in the early 1990s. -
Our 1st NCL cruise. Anyway to get points for it?
Palmetto Pilot replied to Jose Zalfadilla's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
my first cruise was the Norway in 1995, I did 2 more NCL cruises in the 1990s had a paper latitudes number and all that mess. Didn't cruise again until 2004 and NCL would not credit the cruises. It's a bummer for sure. -
Join us to and on the NCL Encore Dec 3rd 2023

Munich airport is closed now and buried under snow! Good thing you didn't go to Munich! -

How long to they typically stay up? Will we see them on a NYE cruise? -
Coast Guard closed Port Canaveral
Palmetto Pilot replied to Eastern flygirl's topic in Royal Caribbean International
well, it's certainly closed now. -
out of about 50 cruises the Mardi Gras was probably the absolute worst ship and most disappointing cruise I've ever taken. Too many people, not enough crew. If you like waiting for everything then I'd say the MG is for you.

Fresh off the Mardi Gras-thoughts & review
Palmetto Pilot replied to kelkel2's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
I agree the Excel Suite gratuities were every expensive for what exactly? At least on Royal suite class you get twice a day service. -
Royal Caribbean allowed 18-year-olds to buy beer and wine years ago when I was 18. It was awesome having a beer with my dad. Unfortunately, carnival doesn't allow this.

Mardi Gras/Celebration Vs. RCCL Oasis Class
Palmetto Pilot replied to SoBe2010's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
I'm Diamond on Royal as well and generally my preference is Royal. We like the Sky class experience and all that the Oasis class has to offer. I'm by no means loyal to any particular company and we're headed out on the MG next week. I'm apprehensive about the amount of people and small size of the ship in comparison to the capacity. We'll see... -
Fresh off the Mardi Gras-thoughts & review
Palmetto Pilot replied to kelkel2's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
I'm gald to know the kids club was excellent. We're sailing next week on MG with the kids and they always look forward to the kids clubs on every line we sail on. I am worried about feeling crowded on the ship. MG is significantly smaller than Oasis class on Royal Caribbean but just about as many passengers at double occupancy and max occupancy.
