Thx. I just have never seen it or anyone eating in Vibe unless they brought it in from buffet!

February 2022 Encore.

Bird, I truly enjoy reading your reviews when you post them. Informative and fun! But I do love the quiet(er) atmosphere if Vibe and the service I get from the bartenders. I've tried Spice H2O, and I get more enjoyment from Vibe. So I guess we'll disagree here.

Unfortunately the thermal spa can get busy and loungers can become occupied for long periods of time. Vibe simply has a lot more loungers. The pool in the thermal spa is not big, certainly not big enough for lap swimming.

Yep. But I look at the cost as a valuable asset to my vacation experience.

This would be great if it's true. But my 5 previous Vibe experiences had no menu. Maybe it's a new thing...but it's possible that the repis giving you some erroneous info.

That is weird. Do you have the yellow “1” on your first day of your itinerary?

I had to click on the day 1 itinerary to show it.

No lunch served. But you can go grab some stuff!

Nice! I immediately went to check mine too!

Whic ship and date in March?

Glad you have someone at NCL you have confidence in Gary! I need one of those!

Trust me, you’re probably right. But if there is a sure fire way for me to show paid in full, I’m pursuing it! I know you’ve called twice, and that in itself would drive me nuts. I’m so grateful I got someone on my first attempt who knew of the new process, booked my Vibe passes, took my money and sent me my email confirmation ( which my TA also sent me a copy of the next day!).

Sorry, I would be stressed out about that. I’d call until someone took payment and I received email confirmation. My own peace of mind I guess!!!

I appreciate you responding because I'll be monitoring it in my future sailings. I really was told I didn't earn any while onboard this last trip. I think I just chalked it up to "another" casualty of a changing world!

Wow, that's great! I sailed Encore in February and didn't get any stars for my gift card purchases. And I used my Apple Watch Starbucks app! Thx for correcting me, and I will make sure to get those stars on Prima!

They take Starbucks gift cards but can't redeem or add Starbucks stars. I always load up on some gift cards before I go. You can prepay your gratuities before you board. Go to your app or reservation at NCL.com.

I think we will see some sellouts!

I believe it. As word continues to get out, it will be wildly popular. The fun part will be the folks who are trying it for the first time:.reactions from passengers who have not experienced Vibe will be fun to see. We will see some sellouts for sure!!!

I also heard that. Surprising.

Laszlo! The original YouTube video of Escape Vibe that got me hooked!

There would be a whole lot of people upset if this was an error! Have you done Vube before or just stick with the Haven sundeck on previous cruises?

Nice job! Congrats, and it’s a relief, right?

I was able to book for my March 2023 Prima cruise. No issues.

Some guy on Escape a few years ago yelled at my wife in guest services line that she was rude and almost knocked him down while running for Vibe. My wife insisted that she didn’t do anything of the sort but repeatedly apologized, trying to smooth it over with this total stranger. I finally told him to knock it off, everyone in line was getting a pass, and just chill. Best part? We were all in Vibe together all week, and he bitched non stop about what a waste of money it was. The next Escape cruise we got stuck behind a group of 25 who fanangled their way to early boarding because ONE of their group was in a wheelchair. It was a family reunion. Of the 25, 22 got refunded on day two because they didn’t like that they couldn’t smoke in Vibe. it’s the best people watching spot on the ships.
