DITTO!!! 5 weeks and counting. I think I have everything covered for my crew of 17... waiting for one more package to arrive from NCL, but aside from travel to/from the pier, my spreadsheet looks like I have it all covered (fingers crossed).

 

I can't wait! I SO need a vacation.

We're 25 in total, made up of two main families and a bunch of inlaws and outlaws - we just set up our transportation. Originally we were considering driving (well... the men folk were I should say).. but we (the wives!) changed our (their) minds :p I see you're in Dutchess... I'm in Putnam

The door leading to the bow(if you can find it) is marked something like "crew only".

I believe it's a respite area for the crew.

If you happen to be wondering/wandering, the door is not locked (hint hint).

Got few family members on that ship right now. My father called me from her while she passed under Verrazano.

 

Sucks I could not be on it, but I will be on Epic 7/6/14 sailing :-)

None of the crew doors are locked. And most cruise lines (NCL included) take a pretty dim view of passengers wandering around in the crew work areas. Not to mention the bow is the one area the entire bridge staff, Captain included, will be looking right down at you! I would not go out onto the bow.

Yes, honorable pax would not go out onto the bow.

But I've heard that, when returning to NYC at pre-dawn, passing under the Verrazano,

it's a great (unnoticed) place to be. And the Captain and crew have other things to do.:)

I would not recommend !

I like to be as high as possible when going under a bridge. Why would some people want to be on the bow?

I consider going into crew areas very rude. Some of these areas are the only place where the crew has time away from the passengers. How would you like someone barging into your living room?

Woohoo. It's gonna be soooo much fun. Hope the weather cooperates for sailaway :)

Been waiting NINE LONG MONTHS for this cruise!

Happy Cruising!
