Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. My apologies if this question has been asked. I am one adult traveling with one minor ... no others in the room ... How does the purchasing of the drink plan work ? Thank you in advance ...
  2. I have not traveled Holland America in quite some time, sailing NCL most of the time. My apologies if these questions have been answered in other posts. Traveling on the Nieuw Statendam later this month. 1. Do the room stewards clean / tidy up the room once or twice a day ? 2. Is there a fee for room service ? 3. Does the signature beverage package include the coffee shop and / or speciality teas ? Any tips would also be appreciated. Thank you in advance.
  3. My take on some of these benefits ... we were most recently on the Gem ... we are Diamond. "Dinner With An Officer" is usually "Dinner With A Crew Member" (should be renamed) ... our last dinner was with one of the hostesses from the casino on Valentine's Day. I think the choice of day was deliberate to weed out those wanting a "romantic dinner" ... we were also told that those "chosen" are by lottery ... is it a perk then ? "Wines Around The World" was very disorganized ... I felt like it was their first time doing this. There were four stations and you had to stand to sample the wines and they would rinse your glass above this large container ... too much "splish-splashing" and handling of my glass for me to feel comfortable after coming out of a Covid pandemic. Everyone then rotated to the next station. Four wine people would speak at the same time. We left. "Mixology Class" was AMAZING. It was held at the great outdoors bar. It featured all of their "sustain" beverages ... all yummy!
  4. I have a cruise scheduled to sail early February. I realize that I can not ask for any reimbursement if the price of the cruise goes down. Here is my question. The price of the next category cabin went down a few hundred dollars less than what I paid. I called and asked if I could switch cabins and how much would it cost me. I was expecting a small service fee for the changes. Again I did not ask for any money back although I paid more for my cabin. The agent said it would cost me $4,000 to upgrade. I terminated the conversation. Is this a new policy ?
  5. I would appreciate if a recent NCL Gem Full-Suite [not haven] passenger could advise if the special / exclusive Breakfast and Lunch perk is still available ... if so, what dining room is now used. The NCL website does not appear to include the Breakfast and Lunch perk as a Full-Suite amenity ... only butler and concierge service. Thank you.
  6. My apologies if this question has been asked. What are the differences (mainly dining) between a Suite or Haven on the Gem. I know things have changed within the past year but I am out of the loop. I realize the Haven areas are exclusively for Haven guests (and rightfully so) but what are the perks of being in a Suite ? Thank you in advance.
  7. we will be sailing on the Celebrity Solstice this month ... Please excuse if these questions have been asked before ... we will be staying in Aqua class ... Thank you in advance ... 1. Are "on demand" movies comp or is there a fee per movie ? 2. Is a PCR test acceptable as long as it is two days before embarkation ? I am vaccinated and my local pharmacy has results in 24 hours. 3. Is the comp laundry bag per person or per cabin ... We are both elite ?
