Did you try champagne, was it also easily available in P+?

I love how NCL goes: everything by the glass included. And then: oh well actuallyyyyy, not EVERYTHING is included. 🫢

I prefer Escape, but Epic is nice too.

Good to hear that at least the Pommery is widely available.

They still advertize for Pommery Rosé, was that one available?

FAS, FAS Ultimate, FAS Premium Plus. 😁 Just double checked, I have the Frea At Sea Plus, which includes the Premium Plus bevarage pack. Not that I want the whiskey, I just want the champagne and starbucks :D. But good to know I have all drinks by the glass included, so they can make me some exclusive cocktails too :D. Premium Plus Beverage Package Includes all beverages by the glass (top-shelf spirits, cocktails, beer and wine), select premium bottles of champagne and wine as well as unlimited Starbucks® coffee and speciality drinks, bottled water, soda, juices, and more.

We are talking about the FAS plus here, the one that states that all drinks by the glass are included.

Wait, you had to pay a surpluss even though the FAT Ultimate states that all drinks by the glass are included? 😕 Seriously NCL, what are you doing...

Any new experiences by now, someone? 😄

I will really never understand why they sacrifice that much outdoor spacing for a f*** (pardon, my french) carting course. Imagine what they could have done with that space. It's a huge waste of outdoor space for just 1 activity.

No, I don't tip. Even when the meal was 'free' or included.

I prefer Escape as it has more things to do and more outdoor space for dining and drinks. However not if that comes at a X2 price. I also love the Epic, so if you can have half the price for +- same itinerary, then I'd pick Epic easily.

Even though I would highly recommend visiting Bruges as being a beautiful fairytale city, I do get your point. This is not a change, it's a whole new cruise.

Hate it how they keep raising prices but bit by bit are reducing the services. no more turn down of the cabins Buffet opening hours Less champagne/whiskey available ... Not the way to go, NCL!

I did a minimum bid as I'm solo traveler and thus have to pay for double occupancy for the upgrade. Let's hope I get lucky 😄

Outrageous by NCL. 🤬

This is bad news if the main dining rooms won't have champagne...

That would be ridiculous... What's the point in getting the P+ if they scrap all benefits. NCL, step up your game!

I agree with you, but when you bought at $30 (like me :D), you do hope that the stock will go up a again. I might need some time to recover my $1500 loss at $100 per cruise lol.

Good luck with that 😅

Yeah but then can't expect their P+ customers to have to go a specific restaurant to get a glass of brut Champagne. If you advertize it as 'all champagne by the glass' then I expect to have champagne available in all restaurants and most bars. And no a rosé is not acceptable as 'standard' champagne, there should be a brut availabe and the rosé should be the extra, not vice versa. I probably won't cancel as I will probably enjoy the rosé Pommery but I do hope that i will be widely available across the ship and not in just 2/3 restaurants/bars and that a regular brut will be available too. Otherwise I'll probably complain onboard to get a refund.

To be honest, Veuve is a bit overrated and there are plenty of better champagnes out there, just sad that NCL is not open to what they are replacing it with. Pommery Rosé might be a good champagne but a rosé is not what a general champagne drinker wants, they want a regular brut champagne and a rosé is a nice extra for when in the mood. A bit sad there seems to be no brut option out of the box. I found a wine menu from 2022 and it has several champagnes, but probably already outdated as it still has Veuve by the glass for the main dinging rooms on it.

So what kind of champagne is available on the ships and in which restaurants/bars? Can someone clear this up to me cause I read all kind of things. I assume that the Pommery Rosé is the only chamapgne coming per bottle, but I hope there are still champagnes by the glass in the bars/restaurants available too? I literally upgraded to premium to be able to have glasses of champagne all day long and not only per bottle at dinner.
