  1. I called and cancelled our Mediterranean trip for Sept. prior to final payment even though we were technically covered by Peace of Mind . We received a full refund within 3 weeks . Our airline had cancelled our flight as well  Made me sad but had to do it. First time ever . We have since booked a March trip to French Polynesia . Hope that works out .

  2. Okay. So we cancelled our September 2020 Mediterranean cruise . We were just fine with a FCC . Just didn't want tp lose our money . ( No fiscal judgement please ) . As it turned out we were refunded for the cruise in less than 3 weeks.  Still happy with NCL and planning to cruise March and possibly in the Fall once itineraries shake out .

  3. Still awaiting our FCC . I spoke with my PCC yesterday and was told it probably was going to take a couple of more weeks as NCL is swamped .We canceled Apr. 1 and originally was told 7 business days . My cruise next certificate was returned in 2 days . Guess I'll just to watch and call again .Really would like to have this all settled .

  4. Our first time to Rome we used NCL hotels . Pre cruise we stayed at the Crowne Astor . It is convenient to the Vatican but further out from other sites eg. the Colosseum . They do offer a shuttle for a few Euros . Keep in mind the cruise line  charges per person . Post cruise we stayed at the Hilton Airport which was very convenient . I think it depends on your level of comfort when booking stays independently .

  5. With the 30% "discount" some cruises are . For example, our Med cruise was booked at $2599 for a BC balcony . Same balcony with discount is $3689 . Now cabins prices can fluctuate until final payment b to show cost before "discount" to have risen to $5500 + and put a slash through that price is just silly . In checking 2021 trips I'm not seeing that . We've sailed NCL for 13 years and have seen prices vary but this promotion is reminiscent of buying the Brooklyn Bridge .

     

  6. We elected to take a cab this time from Logan . Found that the taxi price was within $1 of Uber . Keep in mind this was solely from the airport . When we stayed elsewhere in the Seaport we have used the free Silver line and it was fine . I guess it also depends on the number of bags and if it's easy for you to handle them .

  7. We used Hotwire to book the end of Oct. 2019 . We stayed at the Yotel . The room was very small but extremely functional . Every inch of space was efficiently used . Very clean and staff was pleasant and helpful . Cost was @ $ 225 for a Thursday night stay . It;s a Seaport location .

  8. It was. When you get off the ship you walk through the shopping area . At the end of the area make a left and there is a fleet of buses . Price is posted . The driver clearly stated how often we could get a bus back . If I remember they did a run back every 30 minutes but they will tell you .

  9. We took one of the open air buses to Cane Garden Bay .Cost was $8 pp each way . They had facilities with chair rentals . There were a number of places to eat and drink on the beach . Very scenic drive and our driver narrated what we were seeing . Water and beach were really nice.

  10. Just  came back from a 14 day on the Gem . We started out in a deck 11 inside and watched prices on the gty balcony and availability so that we would have a sense as to location . So an additional $150 pp + all the promotional perks ended up in a deck 8 fwd . balcony . It was a quiet location with no issues . We have done this 2 other times and the balcony locations were good . Hope your recovery continues well and you are soon up and about .
