The special 2 extra dining pkg upgrade and the FAS+ upgrade pkg aren’t combinedable - when you bought the FAS+ pkg the former pkg is nullified (and monies refunded or brought into the latter). Happened to me when I cheekily bought the 2 special first and waited a week before buying the FAS+ upgrade for our 11day transatlantic on Viva in Nov. Didn’t work, so I ended up buying 2 extra at regular price. if you need more, you can purchase them on board. But check out the MDR first - they’re often good. -

That’s THE NCL newbie card - the colour, the shell, and there is no Latitude status line. -

About 4.5 hours. It's a very scenic journey. -

I think you're supposed to check-in at train station an hour before departure. So they can take your bag and check you in and give you ticket with seat number. It's like checking in and boarding a flight. -
I would suggest you do the Briksdal Glacier with Troll cars. When Greenland was switched to Norway on our July 2022 Star cruise, the Shore Ex offered limited excursions at a very short time and sold out fast, but I was able to snag a noon tour from an excursion center in the white building on the right as I exited the ship. That tour was one of the best excursions I'd ever been on. Yvonne, your Dad would have loved this excursion as riding on the Troll car was great fun. That included a short hike to the glacier viewing point. I managed to complete the hike with my bum knee. Next time we go to Olden I'm going to drag DH on that excursion (he missed it as he broke some toes falling down stairs on the very first evening of the cruise!!).

@sarlin perhaps you might want to wait until you receive the surgery date before proceeding to cancel cruise, etc.

No Rain Gear???? Good luck! By the way, there are lots of great rain wear to be sold in the Ward Cove cruise terminal at Ketchikan - at reasonable prices. -
Do you have the surgery date? I think you need it for insurance - if it takes place before your cruise date.

Von is correct. The NCL chartered train leaves from the airport. -

True, the colour is unique to the ship, you might want to print the tags in colour if there are two (or more) NCL ships in port at same time.

For all our 29 NCL cruises, we have not received any luggage tags from NCL, not once! I just print out our own from the eDocs.
