At 12:00 am EST, on the first open up day to reserve. This is only if you can stay up late. Some would do it in the early morning - 6-7 am. Make sure to also book shows.

Also new to NCL...............you have to make reservations for "Shows" ?

How do you even know what shows will be available 4 months in advance ?

Thanks

Most restaurants are cruise casual and allow shorts for all meals. Depending on the ship, a few restaurants require long pants and collared shirt for men.

 

 

There are no formal nights.

I will be on the Epic.

Will be happy to dress casual every night..............no "formal" nights on NCL ?

Have only been on Princess & Celebrity cruises lately and has been 12 years since my last time on NCL. What is normal evening attire for men in main dining room or specialty dining ?

Also what about on formal nights ?

Thanks.

The package covers the first $15 of the drink price. You pay for anything over $15 (plus gratuity on the difference). Some martinis and premium liquor will exceed. See bar menu on this link. https://boards.cruisecritic.com/showpost.php?p=55866369&postcount=162

Does not include Ice Bars, room service, package sales, bottled water, ship specific promotions or beer buckets, designated super premium brands (subject to change), bottled wine, mini bar purchases, fresh squeezed juices, Lavazza coffee beverages, wine dispenser, energy drinks or vending machines.

This means all Martini's are over $ 15.00 and you then pay just the amount over $ 15 plus tip ?

They don't even list them on the bar menu shown on your link.

Also you cannot sit and order ANY drink at the Ice Bar with Beverage Plan ?

Looking for a resort offering a Beach Pass for the day. Only looking to swim with access to an umbrella/chairs that also has a restaurant/snack bar. A swimming pool would also be nice. Spent the day with the above amenities about 8 years ago but forget the resort name.....only remember the iguanas walking around the bar. Thank you :)

I have never cruised out of Port of San Francisco. It shows the Star will be the only ship in port that Friday in May but Princess recommends no flight before 12:15. I plan to take a taxi to airport after clearing customs.
