What happened to Cyn874??

We want to have a bottle of Bailey's in the room for our morning coffee. Our TA called princess and was told that it had to be ordered when we are on the ship. Has anyone done this? You can pre order other booze for the room on the Princess site but not the Baileys.

Nice review! We were also on this cruise and are from West Michigan too! (Ludington Area)

We had a great time but we did have a coupe of issues. We had the Beverage package and the issue we had was that if you wanted a drink you had to go to the bar to get it. Service away from the bar was poor to non existent.The exception to this was Tobacco Road. Service at all the bars was always good.

I was Excited about the District Brew House but really there are people that might want a beer before 4:00 in the afternoon. It seemed like it was never open and again the service away from the bar was terrible.

This was our experience but I hope yours was better.

The other thing is that I wanted a hat or T shirt that had the ESCAPE on it. It seems that NCL is missing an opportunity on this as they don't sell stuff like that unless I wanted a coffee mug. I noticed this on other NCL ships as well.

My apologies for hijacking your review.

Congratulations and Happy Birthday. It was nice meeting you both at the Chef's Table.

We had a great time on the cruise too!

Thanks everyone. I think we will just meet up on the ship. What deck do we board on?

Can you check in at a different terminal than what you are assigned? We are assigned terminal B and my Sister in law is assigned terminal C. We are arriving around the same time from different directions and would like to meet up before boarding the ship. Any good spots to meet up?

Does anyone have a picture of this lock/latch on the Harmony? Oasis used a triangle type key.

With all the changes that are going on does anyone have first hand knowledge if they are still offering Martini tastings. Specifically on the Dawn!!

How is the Battery Warf?

I may still be writing his by Nov 14th. We are going away on a fall foliage drive next week to Northern Michigan and I'll lose three days of posting.

 

Thanks again,

Norris, Enjoying your review and your pictures are bringing back fond memories of our cruise a couple of years ago.

Where in Northern Michigan are you heading? Some great breweries and wineries up here!

Lemon Drop martini before dinner!

We just returned on Saturday. We were in 8150. It is on the same deck as the restaurants on the waterfront and easy to get to most places. It was quiet. The balcony is kind of small but very usable. We were right above the shuffle board court on the port side. Would I book this cabin again? Sure if the price was right.

We didn't go from the port but from our hotel on Las Ramblas. It was only supposed to take 20 minutes but turned into almost an hour with traffic. We were a little stressed. They also recommend arriving almost two hours ahead of your flight for international travel. I would rather be waiting at the airport than in a taxi stuck in traffic!

Last March on the Star we had a group of 10 of us. We were all in suites except for one couple (their first ever cruise). I emailed the pre cruise concierge and asked if they could join us at embarkation and a breakfast or two at Cagney's. They were given VIP Status and enjoyed all the suite perks we did, except the butler. I also mentioned that we were all there for our daughters wedding cruise. Good luck and enjoy your cruise!

We just returned from two weeks on the EPIC and had used RomInLimo for all 3 of our stops in Italy. Our drivers Giampiero, Rolando and Elisabetta were great. The guides hired by RomInLimo were very knowlegable and pleasant. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again. Had a great time and hope to return.

I would like to see a standard title format for the roll call (date, ship, itinerary, etc.) (2/20/2010 Pearl Caribbean), so that it would be easier to locate a cruise and date! Just a thought.
