Nothing great at the shops in Norfolk.  Stay on the ship enjoy the spa the the free drink.   And yes I leave close to Norfolk so I know about the shopping and dining.  Unless you want to see the Wisconson which takes an hour so so.

Virginia beach is ok but not worth it   Go to the shops close by and the Wisconson  and then enjoy the ship  Best advice

5It will be great.  I have been doing some checking and what I have come with is about 60% full.  We are going in a day early staying in port near terminal at a BandB.   Coming back to Rome and spend a couple of days there before returning back to Virginia.

We are on the Sept 13 cruise as well.  Look forward to the trip.  We booked almost 500 days ago.  Now only 30 to go.  Are going in the a day or 2 before?

I am not sure but when I went back and check what I paid for our shore excursions e did get the credit for being platinum but I did not notice the $50 credit for each shore excursion.   Do we get it as room credit?  Should I call NCL?

You can get with NCL and tell them you want to go up to 2 days before and 2 days after.  We always go a day in advance to give us a little less stress.  You get the credit for tranfer to ship but hotel and getting to ship is on you

We live close by Norfolk (20 min).  You will not make it to Williamsburg so dont even consider this.  The cruise ship will dock close to the Wisconson and a great food and shopping all within walking distance.  The McCarthy museum is a good thing to see but other than that not much to do for 4 hours that you have time for.

Good question as we are on the same cruise.   you have the first drinks

Any idea where the getaway is at right now.  We are 5 weeks out I am hoping the crew is getting there shots as we speak.  Hope everyone stays safe.

butabeach we will see you on the 13th.  

With all NCL having roughly 60% or so on thee first couple of cruise I was wondering if they will still have bidding for upgrades.  If so when do they start 60 days out I thought.

We will be on the first cruise with the getaway, Sept 13 out Rome.  Any idea how many guest will be allowed on the ship?

Encore for me.  Tortola is the best, going to Jost Van Dyke.  The best beach in the world.  Do the bar walk, great time on the beach

It all worked out.  Yes having a fixed cost seem to make a charge from the start.    I never had used the chat on email but the service worked out great.  

I would go with Tapanyaki, Q, cagney and LOs Lobos

We went ahead and used the call the agent on the web site and she was able to get the reservation for us.  Real easy.

we booked at 120 days out

We have 4 with the cruise and we have purchased 2 additional dinners.  It was kinda weird as the first night we tried to book was Moderno and they tried to charge us.  I went ahead and booked other dinners and all went well.

We are booking our dinners for our Med. cruise in September,  no issues on all our dinners except for Moderno.  We have 6 total night pre paid but they keep wanting to charge us for that dinner.  Any ideas?

We have cruised all over the east coast and west coast and notice the Pacific is a little rougher than the atlantic going to San Juan and other places.  I would like to know about if they have rough seas doing the med.  We are going on a 10 day cruise with another couple and she got sick sick on the Pacific cruise.  So I was wondering if the Med is any rougher or calmer.  Thank you in advance for your help  

I saw a number of news releases the have the first Med cruise being Sept 13 on the getaway.  Yea we are booked and both of us have received our shots.  Ready to go.  Hope this works out well for us all those who are ready to start cruising.

Also the airlines have included having mask on up until Sept 10.  We leave on the 11th but I am sure I will keep my mask on during the flight until we are back to normal, what ever that is

We have a cruise booked on Sept 13 on the getaway out of Rome.  I always check prices before we have final payment and when I do a mock booking it says no longer available.  Do you think it is glitch or booked up or what. I week before and week after will not let us try and book.

cancel this meant getaway

Our cruise is set up for in Sept in the med.  We got a email changing one port and now the breakaway is no longer on NCL for any cruise for this year.  Any ideas

Was looking for the best ideas on transfer from Rome to citavecchia, taxi or or other ideas to get to the port.  We are going in a day before our cruise so looking for help.  Also would like ideas for hotel ideas as well.
