Guests on board?

[Hikini]

Has anyone ever been granted the privilege to have guests on board while in port? I'm specifically asking because while we are cruising on an NCL ship, we'll have family on another NCL ship with a different itinerary. However, on one day our paths will cross and we'll be in the same port at the same time. I wondered if it is ever allowed to have guests come on board. Since they are also sailing NCL…..or is that just silly to think it's possible, especially after 9/11?

I would suggest that you contact Guest Relations in Miami and ask them. I would give them the details of both family groups and ask them if it is possible.

You can always hang out on the cool sofas they put out under the canopy on the dock (and potted palm tree) near the ship's gangway!! :D

I know this was done on Celebrity in Bermuda, but under special circumstances. The arrangements for guests to board the ship were made in advance. I would think it should be doable considering all are NCL guests but definitely ask in advance.

I would say go ahead and ask. The worst they can say is "no" and, stranger things have happened.
