Will there be more cruises departing from Quebec City in Fall 2026 announced?  I only see a 10 day option.  Or will this be it?

Thanks!

Is there much to do on Sapphire Princess for a 2 year old?  I see the kids' club is open from age 3.  We aren't really interested in dropping him off, we can stay with him.

Could I trouble to ask if you could snap a pic of the paddling pool and play area onboard for small children?  I see an area on the deck plan but I have yet to find a photo.

Hi there!  Do we wait until we get onboard to request a crib or playpen for a toddler to sleep in or is there a way to request in advance?  We booked online without a PVP or TA.

Does anyone know if it is 18 (like the Bahamas) or 21 (like the ship)?

Just post the link to the info

FOUND THE INFO!  But don't know how to delete this!

We are sailing in October on a 4 day itinerary on the Glory with Faster to the Fun purchased.  What options are available for lunch when we board?  I dread the packed buffet lineups as we will have a small child with us. Any suggestions?

Is it 18, like in Bahamas, or 21, like on the ship?

Where did you get the coupon?

Do you know if you can just go to resort the day of?

For the British Colonial, I just emailed them and they said you can get a pass if they are not already sold out at the gift shop in the lobby for $66.  I don't know anything about a coupon, though, sorry!

Can one buy day passes at the British Colonial on site?  How much are they compared to the $66 per person on resortforaday.com?  Only thing about buying online is you must pay upfront and if the weather is bad, I guess you are out of luck?

Hello, anyone been recently to Arawak Cay?  How is the beach and restroom facilities?   I know the Fish Fry is the main event.

I could be mistaken, but the program for under 2's is just times when the room isn't in use and you can bring your child there and stay with them and allow them to play.

Yes, I believe that’s right. Thats why I was thinking we probably don’t have to register?

Does anyone know if we must register for this program?   My daughter and I are taking my 13 month old grandson and saw they have some time slots for under 2's to have play time in the play room.  Also, do the Family programs require registration?

Any favorite spots to get a few drinks and snacks on the beach?   It'll be our first time, myself, my daughter and a toddler.  I don't want to taxi without a carseat or take an expensive excursion when we are unsure how long we will stay.

So does each coupon represent one glass of wine?  Or do they hold the actual bottle for me at a certain location?  Since I likely won’t drink the whole bottle at once 🤪

Also - how does it work if we eat in the buffet one night?  Going with my grandson and not sure how he will fare with a long dinner every evening. Do I bring a glass with me?

We almost never get Cheers and routinely get Cruise the Vineyards; typically the Premium. We enjoy wine and usually don't finish our bottle at dinner so there's often a 'room bottle'. We cruise so often that keeping the alcohol consumption down is paramount.

How does that work?  Do you have to carry the bottle back to your room after dinner?  I don’t understand how it works at the “main bars” either that it indicates on the website.

Considering going on a cruise out of LA with my daughter and grandson this fall. I’m wondering how people with babies get around as I used to Uber but am a little hesitant to use an unknown car seat.  I usually get a hotel near the LAX airport but would like to pop over to Santa Monica for a bit as we would arrive the morning before the cruise.

Its as safe as any city bus ever is. Use your judgement and be aware of your surroundings. 

 

You can select Ubers that offer car seats which is personally what I would do in this situation. 

I was mostly wondering if that bus went through a particularly bad part of town.  I’m a little leery of using a car seat without knowing its recall status, if it’s been installed correctly etc.

Hi there, my daughter and I are considering a cruise out of LA this October with a baby in tow and staying near LAX - we arrive the morning before the cruise.  Is the Big Blue Bus line safe for two women and a baby to take to Santa Monica during daylight hours?   We want to avoid using Uber due to the need for a car seat.

How was the shuttle service to Ketchikan and back to Ward Cove?

Can anyone recommend a shuttle service or something we can use to get from the airport to hotel to port?

Yes, that is the NCL way, and I'm pretty sure the other lines as well.  I have an app called Shipmate that has a price-tracking feature.  I'm not 100% sure if it's accurate?  It just notified today my cruise dropped 6% so I've asked my PVP to look into that for me to see if that's true.  If others know of a better app, I would be all ears!

When you took the excursion to Ketchikan, did they provide shuttle service to and from Ward Cove?  I’m looking at the pub crawl just to avoid the shuttles.
