just off CB 6/3 and we had no problems - Deck 8 Emerald Ocean View - well used cabin - needed carpet replacing years ago but cabin steward kept it clean.  Invited to the most travelled cruises luncheon and enjoyed a good steak - 3 glasses wine (no cocktail)!!  A officer ate at every table (supposedly to hear negative gossip on Princess!!!)  Coffee was quite good in buffet we noticed.  Ate in restaurants when menu appealed to us otherwise up to the buffet which opened at 1700 hrs every night.  Casino very smoky and crowded - did not know you could do a slot tournament if you earned 200 points on the first night - have not seen that before.  So all in all it was worth the $75 we paid (casino offer).

enjoyed your interesting post - can you advise if there are kettles in the cabins please?  thanks a lot

We had no email or anything else and went to our assigned cabin on boarding Regal in December- door said welcome ..... and we were about to go in when a staff member appeared and said oh no you have been upgraded as this is a covid cabin for isolating staff !!! would have been nice to get a message/email or whatever but nothing - could have been very embarrassing !

thanks for replies - looks life buffet is the only place to go!

Anyone just off Rhapsody can tell me if I can get a free cup of coffee at Latte-tudes - early am or will i have to go up to the buffet? I know I can buy it but have joined the no extras club!! :D:D:D

i am not worried about it one way or the other but when it is pointed out in another thread that you could not remove it i thought i would point out that was incorrect info thank you very much!

on the costa atlantica april 24 you could remove the service charge by producing your passport before 2200 hours on the last night of the cruise. i was with a couple when they did have them removed from their account

book ahead on nationalexpress.com - bus service has always been on time - 2 hours - £8 return for over 60's -then taxi from bus station to ship approx £5

$65 for night in coast vancouver airport hotel in august - $82 with taxes

We had it in our cabin, we were in a penthouse suite, not sure if its in every room.

this freestyle packing is taking up more room than formals......

cannot find it in the threads but can I hope for body lotion or the like on ncl ships?

trying to cut down on my baggage........

thanks
