Yup, we have bought or had spa passes a dozen times. I can count on one hand the times I have seen teens in there. Its a quite place

On our 12 day on the Getaway in the Haven I order surf and turf minus the surf 3 nights. On two of those nights they brought me two filets without me asking

I remember reading your review, it was great!

We have sailed the Gem 4 times in the past (twice in a suite) and love the Gem. I like the size of it, has never felt crowded. We are passing on Thermal Suite passes this time around however I think its one of the nicer one's for the size. I love the Great Outdoors, probably one of my favorite places on the ship to have breakfast or lunch. We debated between the Joy and the Gem. NYC is only a 90 minute drive for us vs Boston is 5 hours, the Joy when we booked was cheaper. However is really wanted a smaller ship and are looking forward to at stop in Bar Harbor. This will be the last year NCL stops there unless something changes

Actually Haven and Suite guest (Suites on the Jewel class ships) not including the old Mini Suites.... I forget what they are called now

Two weeks before us on the Gem. I'll be looking forward to any review you write on Bermuda. June is the perfect month in Bermuda

What is your sail date?

The NCL Concierge email is .... norwegianconciergedesk@ncl.com I contacted them last week and got a response in 45 minutes

Personally I would do easy walk off. Get it line early and the elevator should go quick. It can get pretty crazy and yes having an AirTag will help. I had to use it in this mess

Its Friday Lol

Thats very strange, when I click on the link it goes to Long Bay Beach.... See screen shot https://www.google.com/maps/place/Long+Bay+Beach/@32.3041525,-64.8719346,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x8a2d173d67eb36e5:0xc52c311a27fc06e3!8m2!3d32.304239!4d-64.8716954!16s%2Fg%2F11bw832rq7?entry=ttu

Long Bay Beach is pretty calm and much closer to the cruise port https://www.google.com/maps/place/Clearwater+Beach/@32.3041982,-64.8731103,584m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m6!3m5!1s0x8a2d6d85032cb229:0xc2333fb654b1b8b1!8m2!3d32.355727!4d-64.6598386!16s%2Fg%2F1td48__g?entry=ttu

How are you getting to NYC? Are you parking at the port? Porters both in front and on the roof of the terminal (parking lot) will have luggage tags if you can't print them out. Have a great time

I'm with Kim, we have used H20 three times in the past, will be four in June and have never been disappointed. If money is tight rent kayaks or paddle boards and go to the little islands about 1/2 mile away

Thanks

Thanks! Do you happen to know if they rent chairs at Warwick Long Bay? I know they have a parking area but never paid any attention if they have a concession stand or not

Or should I say concession / chair rental hours in June? Haven't been able to find out when they open up. My wife and I normally get there at 7am, walk way down and sit on towels. However we are going with friends who need chairs Thanks

Probably take to 2025 just to do the dredging alone for the pier. I wonder if all the permits have been applied for yet?

Not true all the time. The Joy sailing to Bermuda from NYC is cheaper than the Gem sailing to Bermuda in the same month - week

If we are staying in the Haven the newer ships by far are better. If in a suite or regular cabin I'll take a Jewel class...... a lot less people and a larger pool deck. First is the itinerary......

I too am surprised when I see post from people wanting to know who the Captain is on a certain ship, who the officers are? I check in to a hotel and wonder who the manager is. I guess I don't get it

If you need to contact the Concierge Department via email here it is norwegianconciergedesk@ncl.com Our cruise is not until June but I was thinking about what we would like. Sent them an email this morning and within 45 minutes I got a nice reply back stating our request

I believe it, the week we were getting off the Getaway in January 2023 our room steward was cleaning 16 cabins. She was very happy to be going home that month because right after that NCL was switching over to the once a day and adding cabins. She said if she was there she would be cleaning 22-24 cabins a day including 8? Haven Spa cabins

Its funny whenever I have mentioned about building a pier at GSC it was followed by 50 comments about how it could never be done, it would cost too much 🤣

I'll throw a monkey wrench into your question. I bought these tags because I liked the size, I then configured my printed tags to fit them. I made a template and just drop the new info in every time we cruise https://amzn.to/4cPdF6E
