  1. Yeah, Tee shirts with the NCL LOGO, and the name of the ship, with a picture of the ocean and some fish. That would be cool. I'd buy one.
  2. We could leave comment cards with guest services saying that passengers want cookies, and not to reduce or discontinue them. Maybe the cruise line will listen. I hope that they do.
  3. I hope that there will be cookies on the Jade this year. We will be on her.
  4. From what I heard, the Viva & Prima ships are smaller than the megas, but they crammed to many venues on them, and they are too small. That's why we prefer the Jewel class ships. Yes they have fewer venues, but they are large enough to accommodate without crowding. We also enjoyed the JOY, and would sail her again.
  5. NCL has Freestyle dining, which means that you can dine where you want to, when you want to, and with whom you wish to sit. That said, you should make reservations as soon as possible for the specialty restaurants. When we go to the MDR, the wait is never too long. We get a table for 4.
  6. We have always seen veggie items on the MDR menu, sometimes we tried them, although we are not vegetarians.
  7. At the Meet and Greet, one of the officers said that NCL does read Cruise Critic to find out what the passengers' thoughts are. So, I will say bring back the cookies and keep them coming.
  8. If I had my choice of the Gem or the Joy it would be a hard decision. I like both ships. The Gem has the Great Outdoors which is an out door part of the buffet. It has two pools, whereas the Joy only has one. There is more entertainment on the Joy, such as the Cavern Club where we watched "The Beatles" perform. In Q there was a vintage Broadway performance. In the theater, we had 2 great shows. I'm not sure if the Gem still has song and dance shows. Magicians and lousy comedians don't interest us, if that was they reduced it to. Since the Gem sails from Boston, we will sail on her.
  9. Heels hurt my feet to I always wear dressy flats and sandals.
  10. NCL does not allow diapered unpotty-trained babies in their pools, although they do get in. There is signage to that effect near the pools. Even swim diapers are not allowed.
  11. Please keep us informed as to whether the passengers were able to reboard the ship at the next port.
  12. We only book the ship's excursions for this very reason. However, since the passengers were driven back to the ship while it was still there, the captain should have let them reboard.
  13. Hopefully, the cruise line will take care of the employees.
  14. Good to know. I saw an episode of Mighty Cruise Ships, in which Captain Carl Gunnar Hammerin was Captain of the Joy.
  15. Making cuts then raising the DSC does bother me. I don't feel that the raise was necessary, but the crew does work hard to provide us with a great cruise experience.
  16. I ask them to serve me both halves of the bagel. They are so tiny.
  17. I know that major changes to the Observation Lounge were made. Hopefully, they didn't ruin it.
  18. We didn't set foot in Starbucks.
