Plus Upgrade Question
cruiselover19811981 replied to cruiselover19811981's topic in Princess Cruises
We pre purchased water on our NCL cruise last month in the Mediterranean. It was nice to come back to the room and have cold water in our mini fridge. I think this will be a good idea on this 2 week Caribbean sailing as well. Thanks for the info. -
Plus Upgrade Question

We just did a 9 day sailing with 300 shared Internet minutes. I look forward to our annual cruise, so that we can all unplug. Since sharing is an option, it will suit us just fine. -

Plus Upgrade Question
cruiselover19811981 replied to cruiselover19811981's topic in Princess Cruises
Great advice, much appreciated. Our children are teens. I don't mind paying the $14.99, but the option of splitting may be something to consider if it's just a casual lunch after an excursion day. We are all in one cabin, so I think it makes the most sense to purchase the Plus for hubby and I, and then pay as we go for the Alfredo's or any other casual dining. The soda packages aren't worth it for our children. Even if my son has 1 soda per day, it's not worth the package fee. Regarding Internet, we may purchase 1 extra device and thus between the 4 of us we would then have 3 devices, 2 with the Plus package for hubby and I and one as an extra paid. More than enough. -

Agreed. Thank you. -
Plus Upgrade Question
cruiselover19811981 replied to cruiselover19811981's topic in Princess Cruises
Yes, thank you. But the casual restaurants included in the Plus would still have a charge for our kids if we decide to go altogether, and only 2 of us have the Plus perk. -
Plus Upgrade Question
cruiselover19811981 replied to cruiselover19811981's topic in Princess Cruises
Ok thank you. Just trying to figure out the most economical way here. My daughter doesn't drink anything carbonated. Even the zero alcohol or soda only package would be a waste for her. So if we decide to go to the specialty restaurants included in the Plus package for my husband and I, it seems it would be more feasible to pay the $15 charge to have the kids join us. -
Plus Upgrade Question

Should we purchase the Plus package for the two adults but not the kids, what happens when we all go to the casual or specialty dining? Will the kids be charged a la carte? -
Plus Upgrade Question
cruiselover19811981 replied to cruiselover19811981's topic in Princess Cruises
To add to my original post, can we purchase a version of the Plus package for our children at a lower cost so they have the same perks, aside from the alcohol? -
We will have our first sailing with Princess next August, but it will be our 9th cruise. As Princess newbies, if we upgrade to the "Plus" option, it applies for the first 2 guests, which is fine as my husband and I believe it will be worthwhile on the 14 day sailing. However, our children will be ages 15 & 17 at the time of sailing. Would we have to add them to the Plus perk, or are there other packages for them? Obviously, they don't drink alcohol.

Do any other cruise lines offer teachers a discount?
-
How do you take advantage of this? I am an educator in Canada, I teach high school. Too late for this time, we sail next week, but in future bookings is there a teacher discount code? Proof needed, etc?
-
Reservations will not be available until we board. Any idea how much this tour costs per person?

Anyone have current menus?

NCL current officers? Anyone have that information? -
Looking to bid on a Forward Facing Haven Penthouse With Balcony. Currently have a category B6 balcony stateroom. We do not have Free at Sea What benefits would we gain if the bid is accepted? Perks? What extra charges, other than our upgrade bid would we incur? E.g. extra gratuity to the concierge or Butler?

Excursion Sold Out?
cruiselover19811981 replied to cruiselover19811981's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
Thanks for the replies. We booked our bucket list excursions with NCL well before final payment to Cinqueterre, Pompeii, and in Ibiza. However, we were told by close friends that Cannes to Monaco by train is very easy and doable as a DIY excursion (our daughter is a huge F1 fan), so when booking our original excursions, we figured we would take the train ourselves and spend a couple of hours in Monaco before heading back to Cannes for the ship, with a large enough window before all aboard time. Now that the date is getting closer, and seeing it's a tender port, I was just exploring options again and that's what brought me to this post. -
There is an excursion I'd like to book for our July cruise in the Mediterranean. It is only allowing me to add myself, and not the other three members of my family. It shows the price of the excursion next to my name, but shows $0 next to my husband and kids' names. Does this mean there's only availability for 1 more person? Would phoning NCL help, or am I wasting my time?

Considering NCL- a few questions
cruiselover19811981 replied to kelkel2's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
The Escape was a fun vibe ship when we first did it in 2016, when the ship came out. We are headed back onto it this summer in the Mediterranean. Very cool bars, including the Sky Bar and a glow party. Specialty dining includes a Tapas Bar type restaurant, a French cuisine restaurant, Food Republic which is a fusion of foods, a Steakhouse, a Brazilian grill type restaurant and Teppanyaki. I know I'm missing some. I'm not sure on a maximum # of beverages per day, but the drink list of what's included is attached below. 790164-BEV_Package_Flyer_UOBP_PPBP Update_V7_no_crops.pdf -
Questions NCL Escape July 18, 2024

Another question regarding the Mediterranean cruise would be the port fees on drinks when still in port. Wondering what they would be. -
