I think you made a mistake. It should read, "No one should be racing go karts before drinking".

Familiar with this -- someday I might get to use it. What happens if you haul all your luggage to this line, rather than leaving it with the porters?

Wow. I'm just a few points short of you, and I've never.once.ever had a discussion with other passengers on a cruise about status level. Very odd.

I didn't say they'd appreciate it, I said they'd accept it, as opposed to getting nothing. Which was my entire point in my comment that started this. Good grief. Reading comprehension, please. Maybe it was just an anecdote because you called me an ugly American? And couldn't a server in Europe do exactly that with my Ugly American tip in dollars? Too late.

We're not being hostile; we just want more data points. What it is lately with all the snowflakes? Why are you so rude? Why are you so combative? Why are you so hostile? Why don't you just accept what I say as truth? Good grief, people. It's the Internet.

Let me see if I understand you correctly. You believe that a server in the US would not accept a 20 Euro note as a tip? What do you think they'd do, throw it in the trash bin? Are you being serious, or intentionally obtuse?

Correct facts, wrong conclusion. Panama will always allow whoever pays the most money. In most cases, that's a cruise ship.

Status is status. I don't understand what you mean.

Where did you hear this, exactly?

Well, at least ONE of you caught that I was only talking about TIPS. Yes, any server in the US would accept Euros as a TIP, as opposed to receiving nothing. Money is money.

One can dream. We're on a 21-day and will hit Platinum on day 8. Oh well. Maybe I'll get my pin to throw in the drawer with the rest.

He/she is around. Find them and get your frickin' laundry. I will never be confused with a karen, but if my favorite shirt is gone for 3-days: Houston, we have a problem. 😆

What?! What did your room steward say when you asked about it?

We sail in 10-days. What makes you think this? They're just changing casts, as usual. And thank you for the review. We can't wait.

Call me an ugly American, but if all I have is US Dollars, then you either except them, or get nothing. Tell me who won't take Dollar tips, anywhere. Seriously.

I thought I responded to this last night, but "poof" it's gone. Go figure. So, let's try it again. NCL can't publish something that doesn't exist.

Easy answer, no. But if you want this thread to go off the rails, ask if you can order a virgin drink on your package and give it to your kid. Hilarity ensues.

Thank you, very much. So much better than most any other post on this board.

Truer words never spoken. Sleep well.

Just a small capsule of this thread. Fascinating.

I recall you posting this same story, more than 2 weeks ago. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I didn't believe you then, and I don't believe you now.

Exactly. If you want pretzel bread every night for dinner, tell them you want pretzel bread every night for dinner. If it isn't there, ask them why the pretzel bread isn't there.

Holy Bejeeesus.

Chief? VIP? Does not compute. 🤣

Boom. That, as they say, is that.
