That is correct. In theory you can eat at the specialty restaurants every night if seating is available. In practice that's not going to happen, but one night that you are very likely to find space available is the first night of the cruise.

I think a backpack would be OK. BTW...the Intrepid opens at 10am, so you don't have to get to the cruise terminal very early.

The two piers are next to each other. Pier 88 is at 12th Ave and 48th St, Pier 90 at 12th Ave and 50th St. It will be obvious. Looking at the port schedule it doesn't appear that any other ships are in port on days in October when Venezia is there, other than on October 4th. You can drop off your luggage with the porters...but of course keep your carry on luggage with you. There isn't any luggage storage at the Intrepid Museum so you can't bring anything more than a very small carry on to the Intrepid.

A one way adult ferry ticket is $10.

Park at the cruise terminal.

You may want to correct a couple of errors on the last slide in this post. Assuming the stated number of staterooms and the passenger capacities of both ships are accurate, with 1,109 staterooms Millennium has 3.18 times the number of staterooms and with 2,662 passengers Millennium carries 3.97 times the number of passengers.

An egg cream has neither egg nor cream in it...other than the cream inherently present in whole milk .

I think they're referring to the service fee for making the reservation, not the cost of parking, although that fee is actually $11.95, not $10.

You're asking a question about how to do something that is in a post made over four years ago. However the process was done four years ago could have...or more likely probably has changed. .

Yes. It looks like I was wrong. I think the Bermuda Tourism Authority may have some incorrect or at least confusing wording on their website.

It's not open. Latest information on the Fairmont Southampton website says Waterlot Inn is planning to reopen on December 3, 2024, but I wouldn't count on it. Last I ate dinner there was years ago, and I thought it was the best restaurant I had tried in Bermuda.

I thought the Sunday surcharge was set at 50% for any number of passengers when fares were increased earlier this year...but I could be mistaken.

I think the departure times on that sign are for the return trip . The 2:15 trip would work out to getting you back on the ship at about the 6.5 hour mark, which would be 3:30 pm. On the days with two departure times listed they probably have two excursion start times.

And apparently you were lied to. Staff are fed BS lines to use when customers ask questions. NCLH senior management have made very public statements, in shareholder meetings and in Wall St. earnings calls about cutting back offerings in their dining venues to cut expenses.

On ncl.com they call the excursion "Clearwater Beach Triangle". I find it hard to imagine that NCL would run a complimentary shuttle because the ride on their ferry is already free for all their passengers...then if you threw in a free beach shuttle for everyone the only difference between what you get at no cost and what you get on the $199 excursion is a beach lounger and shared umbrella. Bad enough that they charge $199 for the excursion, but I would imagine when excursion passengers found out they essentially paid $199 for a chair all hell would break loose at the shore excursions desk.

I wonder if that sign is for NCL's shore excursion ($199 !) passengers. The excursion includes transfer to and from the St. George's ferry dock, and lounge chairs at Clearwater Hard to believe they would provide that shuttle for free.

Wow...obviously I haven't seen or heard about that !

I'd recommend that you eat at the Frog and Onion Pub in the Dockyard, which is in easy walking distance from your ship. There are other restaurants in the Dockyard too. Taxis from Hamilton to Dockyard will be hard to come by on Sunday night, and will be very expensive due to the 50% Sunday taxi fare surcharge. There wouldn't be anything else to do or see in Hamilton on a Sunday.

No...I've never heard that or seen anything about an NCL shuttle to Clearwater Beach. I'm certain you're mistaken. The only reliable way to get to Clearwater is by taxi. Bus service is too infrequent.

Because it's been sitting in the freezer for who-knows-how-long.

HAL haven't done that itinerary for years and I believe they no longer even have a ship capable of getting in St. George. In 2024 HAL only has four Bermuda cruises scheduled and all berth at Dockyard.

It's about 12 miles more driving and maybe 20 to 30 minutes more time to go to the Hyatt Regency rather than the Courtyard. The Hyatt Regency is about three miles closer to Cape Liberty than the Courtyard...but probably about the same driving time due to having to drive in city traffic in Jersey City.

$45 per day.

Assuming you're asking about beaches in metropolitan San Juan, in my experience none of the beaches are very calm, but Isla Verde Beach is probably the calmest of the major beaches as I believe it's somewhat protected by a reef. In comparison, Condado Beach has much rougher waters.

It's the other way around. When Orange route public ferry service was suspended for a while two years ago it was to rebuild Hunter's Wharf to accommodate the front-loading public ferries. https://www.royalgazette.com/transport/news/article/20220808/st-georges-ferry-suspended-2/
