    Never happened to me.

    My PCC changes dining times for me (if available) with a two- minute phone call. Or even a voicemail left on her line after hours.

    I like to read my Kindle in the studio lounge in late evenings when it is very quiet. The fruit and cookies help.

    I didn’t care for Q, having tried it twice. Just my opinion. I get 2 free at sea dinners, 2 Saphire Latitudes dinners, 2 dinners from the offered upgrade, and one dinner with an officer. So the whole week is accounted for. Q not in the plan.

    I like reality television . I would like to see “Married at First Sight” replace a production show.

    Housekeeping cleaner at an upscale NYC hotel recently told me less than half of guests leave tips. Evidently $300/night for the room is ok, but $3 (or $5) for the housekeeper is too much.

    I have booked 3 nights in Reykjavik, before flying to London for 3 nights, then flying home.

    Looking forward to two weeks on the Star this summer from New York through the Canadian Maritimes to St. Pierre, Greenland and Iceland.

    January in the Caribbean? I would absolutely recommend the Epic. You will be enjoying its expansiveness every day.

    It’s not that bad. It’s just not very good.

    I don’t believe it is rude when you leave a theatre (for whatever reason) as quietly as possible with minimal disruption to the performance and to other attendees.

    Unfortunately, I have been disappointed the two times I tried it. Better options elsewhere on the ships.

    Interesting. In 10 NCL cruises, typically arriving between 12:00 and 1:00, I have never seen the open MDR more than half full and I have always been seated immediately. As for what to do, I am never without my Kindle.

    Uber is not expensive and takes you quickly in comfort right up to the porters who take your bags on board.

    I have cruised on the Prima and Viva and greatly enjoyed them. I look forward to the Aqua’s maiden voyage in 2025.

    In my experience, NCL has offered duplicate lessons and games (with a director) only on transatlantic cruises. The pool in the small haven is a swim-against-the-current endless lap exercise pool. It is about the only place in the fleet to get in a real swim.

    No.

    Don't like the price? Don't buy the cruise.

    My (adult) daughter will be sailing with us out of Miami on the Gem next month in her own club balcony suite. It will be her introduction to cruising. Is there any way to send flowers to her cabin upon embarkation?

    Bring a Kindle. Read a book.

    But in the NCL app under “My NCL” credits are shown as expiring in 2099.

    Took a 7 day Med cruise out of Rome in late September on the Viva. No sea days. Never charged tax on drinks.
  23. FLAHAM
    I had a highly enjoyable Mediterranean cruise on the Viva in October. I recommend it.

    Another vote for a studio over an inside every time.

    I know that many people enjoy the escargots and onion soup at Le Bistro. I don’t. I find the only flavor of the escargots is the garlic while mopping up the liquid with bread. The soup is thin and the cheese wholly inadequate. It doesn’t come close to crusting the rim of the bowl and it, too, is lacking in flavor. I acknowledge that both are popular choices.
