  1. they will be more cutbacks, increase in pricing and overall quality decline. all of the extra money will go towards shareholders and other higher corporation people. this always happens to every company.
  2. it depends on the ship and the cruise next staff if they allow +1 that are not platinum
  3. it might get posted here or you need to check the website every now and then
  4. 1. yes 2. you should be fine with the small bottle 3. they are pools towels you can use, they are in your room and if you need more towels, there is a towel station by the pool 4. tender
  5. i have an expired future cruise credit return back to my account. seems strange
  6. Also noticed the same thing too. i also have a future cruise credit that expired many many many months ago return to my account. seems like a glitch
  7. Aqua is a brand new ship that was just reveled today, the ncl website is not the greatest with showing all of the new itinerary using the search tool. here is the aqua ta in march 2025:
  8. it should be easier to book solo cabins now that Norwegian has recategorize all of the cabins fleet wide having studio, solo inside, solo oceanview, solo balcony
  9. if you are using platinum coupon and do not have any free at sea dinning (as in you decline it when booking) then it is a little different as you can not book them for free. they will require payment when making the reservation for the fixed priced restaurants. no issues with booking al la carte restaurants when platinum
  10. highest staffing levels of an cruise ship. what kind of pipe dream is norwegian smoking?
  11. for my cruise in march, the steakhouse is now 49 dollars per person and Bonsai Teppanyaki is 42 dollars per person
  12. make sure you booking dinner reservations in the correct order. with the free specially dinning package you need to book fixed price restaurants like Teppanyaki and Moderno first and al la carte restaurants like cagneys and le bistro last. if you book things in the wrong order, the system will make you pay if it thinks you dont have enough dinning credits with your page . you will need to call again and tell them to remove all of your dining reservations and then rebook the restaurants in the correct order If Teppanyaki only shows availability for 4 or more people then that means that time slot is kind of full, try selecting a different time or date. When i book Teppanyaki i always select for 2 people and i never charged anything
  13. The destinations gives a hint that the ship will be doing sailings in NYC
  14. yes it is a deposit on your cruise confirmation pdf it appears as a payment
  15. on the cruises ive been on it it seems to depend on the bar tenders and waiters. some still print out the receipt that you need to sign and some just scan the card without printing the receipt. when i was on the escape, i saw bar tenders swipe the card and then throw the receipt the machine printed in the trash can
  16. your onboard account statement in the app and what guest services prints out is like a credit card statement that shows tobacco road 0.00 for drinks, you can ask the wait staff for a receipt if needed but they usually don't have it on hand right away
  17. Every year Norwegian raises their prices and they are currently the highest at 20 dollars per person I wont be surprise to see Royal increase gratuity next year to 20 to match Norwegian. eventfully most of the major cruises like carnival will follow and also increase their rates
  18. its just another marketing game to get people to buy a ton of certificates. i only need 1 or 2. that's all i need, dont need more. whenever i try buy, they always do various upsells to try to get me to buy more
  19. St Thomas is due to Crown Bay that Royal has prefer berthing rights as it is exclusive for Royal corporation. Not other cruise ships can dock there so that berth is always available to them. no need to deal with any other ships at Havensight For Cozumel, ships dock at the International Pier near near the Carnival ships dock that is a few miles down the road from the main city of Cozumel
  20. on my escape cruise last week they had to retake my photo and i was able to leave my glasses on
  21. i think it depends. if a lot of people signed up for the tour and they had to do it in 3 groups then that means no for additional person that is not platinum if the tour is not filled up to the maximum capacity then they might allow a non platinum. it also depends on the cruisenext person too and if there is any open slots. every cruise will be different
  22. i did two cruises on the venezia and i have 2 more booked. the only thing i hate about the venezia is there is no easy way to get from the pool deck area to outside area above the pool deck due to the retractable roof. like going from deck 10 to deck 12. it can be annoying trying to get to deck 12 due to only one set of elevators that is the forward elevators. there no mid or aft elevators on deck 12 and no mid ship stairs either. Deck 12 only has stairs at the forward elevator bank and at the aft
  23. 2 MDR: Taste and Manhattan Room. both have the same menus
  24. Wheel of Fortune is slowly being rolled out fleet wide and is the replacement for most of the shows that got canceled.
