Does anyone know of a private van driver who would take people from St. George to Horseshoe Beach.  I have group of 20 arriving May 13-15.  Just need one day May 14 to visit a beach other than Tobacco Bay.  

Anyone onboard Regal right now?  Wondering who the band is that plays dance music in Atrium  and also the piano player on board/

Does anyone know what band is playing onboard the Regal right now?

We are sailing October 31. 2019 and would like to know what band is playing in Atrium for dancing.  

Sailing Oct 31 on Regal.  Does anyone know if Beatlemaniacs are still playing onboard?

We are sailing Oct 31 on Regal and wondered if the Beatlemaniacs are still playing in atrium.  Also, how is the piano bar entertainment.  First time we went a few years ago it was jam packed every night.  Last time we sailed last Oct, very boring.

I booked Empress out of Bayonne and now notice that itinerary has changed to arrive in St. George first.  Does anyone know why this happened and if ship docks there or do we tender in.  I was excited about spending more time in Hamilton.  Feeling sad.

thanks, sounds adventuresome.  

Thanks for everyone's input.  Uber works!

Anyone know of best economical way to get to Brooklyn Terminal from Grand Central Station

Hoping Andy Stewart reads this and helps out image of NCL.  Right now first impression for clients is "lousy customer service".

I have finally have 

 gotten fed up with the hold time and lousy recorded message.  If NCL wants customers to hold on forever.....please put on a different message than Ahh Huh, etc no one cares about finding their hallelujah after waiting over half hour on hold!!!

So true.  NCL is not giving away free airfare.  They just build the cost into the cruise fare and make it look as if it's free.  I really dislike this promotion as we prefer to book our own air and choose the airline, connection points and times, etc.  We usually drive to NYC, so I don't even need airfare on those cruises.  If they are going to continue with this promotion I really wish they would offer at least some OBC or something if you decline the "free" airfare.  

People are being fooled by all these FREE offers which are really higher fares or service fees attached to cruise bill - poor unknowing passengers.  Time to wake up and not pay for someone's Free air!

That depends on the stateroom, some offer all perks as included in the fare, some allow you to pick the perks you take.  In my case (a Studio) I only got to pick one perk.  Flights from my airport with this perk (for a Pacific Coastal cruise, 2 one-way fares) were insanely high, I did better having my TA book them independently and picking a different perk.  For those with all perks, I guess they'd just somehow tell NCL not to book the airfare.

Prices are much higher for 2020 out of NYC on Bliss and Gem because of this FREE air being paid for by all of us!

how do you opt out of free air benefit?  I was told rate is same for sailing.   

There is a substantial increase in the price of cruise on Gem Feb 14  2020  out of NYC since this past Jan/Feb season 2919.  I believe that cruises which include free or reduced airfare are priced higher to cover this perk.  THERE IS NO FREE LUNCH!

Is it me or does this seem unfair.  Cruise rate for passengers not flying into port is same rate as people coming into NYC from Dallas or other areas of the country flying free!  Why?????

Are the Choir of Men still performing on Escape?  

nickle and dimed to death!

Biggest complaint was the crew!  They were crabby, overworked apparently.  We were not treated nicely.  Many of the crew members were curt with passengers.  I have never experienced this before.  Dining staff hardly could understand english language.   Being a Platinum member and having booked many groups on NCL, I found this cruise Jan 20 to be chaotic!  

Just off Escape Jan 20-Feb 03 Southern Caribbean with a group.  We lost the first day with the wait in terminal, really late luggage arrival (like 1 am) and minimal cabin steward service due to last outbreak of norvo virus.   All crew were busy cleaning, sanitizing ship and not paying the right attention to guests!  Constant spraying of stinky chemicals for one week made people with allergies and asthma stay in cabins.  The crew work heavy duty masks, but not even a written apology from captain for the big inconvenience this scouring caused!   We all realize it is for our own health benefit, but we really put up with a lot of grief and over worked crew members who were not nice to us! I have always sailed NCL, but now because of unprofessional crew on board this ship, I am rethinking my loyalty.  

Does anyone know the name of female singer who imitates Tina Turner?  We last saw her a few years ago.  Fabulous!!

This was one talented lady who entertained in atrium and did a finale show in theatre at end of cruise.  Dynamite Tina Turner impersonator!  Wish she was still sailing....

Sailed out of Southampton Sept 10, 2018 and captain had to change our course, consequently missing three ports.  We were sent a letter stating that each passenger would receive credit of $200 each for this revision.  Has anyone received this refund?
