Yes, every NCL ship that I know of has meetings for Friends of Bill W. and will help you find meetings in the ports you are visiting if you wish.

 

And, NCL also has Friends of Dorothy meetings.

I've seen the Friends of Bill W. meetings listed on the schedules. Are the Friends of Dorothy meetings listed as well?

 

Thanks!

Ive seen them both listed in the dailies on every ship. Call me silly, but can someone explain what those groups are for?

Hubby and I are 99% sure we will be on Norwegian Sky February 16-20, 2015. How do I find out from NCL about the meetings, and is there a way to make contact with AAers prior to the cruise?:)

The meeting times and locations are posted in the dailies, so I would post a request for the Sky's recent dailies to be posted here. As for knowing who attends AA meetings ahead of time, the fact that it's anonymous comes in to play;)

Welcome to Cruise Critic!

You might want to post something in your cruise's Roll Call. As you are obviously comfortable with this, somebody else may post. Have a great cruise!

I haven't seen any Friends of Dorothy meetings mentioned specifically by that name recently. They are usually referred to as an LGBT gathering.

If you click on Message Board Forums above, and then go to the last section on CC Groups, near the end of that listing is Friends of Bill W. That might help you.

Yep, things have changed to more open direction in the last few years - on some ships both names are on the same row.

Friends of Bill W. at 5:30 pm

 

Friends of Dorothy at 8:00 pm

 

Looking at all of my dailies, it's the same time everyday.

Just like I said, it has both titles on the event time row, "Friends of Dorothy" and "LGBT gathering". Some ships use only latter, very few only "FoD" anymore.
