NolaZach Posted October 24, 2014 #1 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Booked this two day cruise. Looking at Cagney's or LeFouret for one night. But I see that you can't get the drink or liquor unlimited deals. So I was wondering what else don't they do? Do they normally have similar shows and music?

computerworks Posted October 24, 2014 #2 Share Posted October 24, 2014 The same shows and very much lounge activity. Usually no room service and the minibar is emptied on weekend cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cliffd64 Posted October 24, 2014 #4 Share Posted October 24, 2014 There will be no latitudes gathering... You will not receive typical latitudes benefits you might expect if you are Gold or Platinum... (i.e. the free dinner in Le Bistro for platinum members... and so on). Typically, because you haven't visited a foreign port, there will be no customs declarations meaning there is no limit on cigarette and alcohol purchases. Other than that, your two-night cruise will be like any other... There will be entertainment and activities you would expect. You will notice the staff will not be as invested in you as they would in a larger cruise. Service in specialty restaurants will be worse because capacity will be full for the most part from open to close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tymike Posted October 24, 2014 #7 Share Posted October 24, 2014 The biggest differences I remember was no room service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garycarla Posted October 29, 2014 #9 Share Posted October 29, 2014 You don't get to relax. First night is getting settled. Next night is getting ready to leave. With that said, if you realize it is just a party trip, then go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barb Nahoumi Posted October 29, 2014 #10 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Also no porter service, may sound silly to bring up but my mother was surprised lol. That makes sense, you would not need more than a carry-on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pixiedustdawn Posted October 29, 2014 #11 Share Posted October 29, 2014 That makes sense, you would not need more than a carry-on. Except some are staying onboard for the next cruise too. You can ask for someone to help if the need arises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mizLORInj Posted October 29, 2014 #12 Share Posted October 29, 2014 In 2013 we began to have to fill out a customs card to hand in once leaving all cruises to nowhere. They are now checking how much liquor and cigarettes people purchase. You also pay a tax on the liquor on board (not sure aboug ciggies--didn't notice cuz I didn't buy.) We have always had good service and enjoyed everything on the 1 or 2 nighters. Just a fun weekend getaway. I think they're great. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishbait17 Posted October 29, 2014 #13 Share Posted October 29, 2014 On our last two-nighter on the Breakaway, there was no room service, even for suites, and they would not unlock our minibar. One time thing? Not sure. Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLSteve11 Posted October 30, 2014 #14 Share Posted October 30, 2014 You can't book any shore excursions:D:rolleyes: Actually, 2-night cruises out of south florida usually go to Nassau for the day (or possibly GSC for NCL), so you do get shore excursions (and customs) down here.

cb at sea Posted October 30, 2014 #15 Share Posted October 30, 2014 On a 2 day, you can't relax....it's unpack, and repack. A 2 day cruise isn't worth it, unless you live within 2 hours of port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's there to pack besides toothbrush and clean undies ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barb Nahoumi Posted November 1, 2014 #17 Share Posted November 1, 2014 What's there to pack besides toothbrush and clean undies ? I'd probably book a B2B and stay aboard for the next cruise. 1 or 2 nights are not enough for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B4andAFT Posted November 2, 2014 #18 Share Posted November 2, 2014 I'm with you, Barb. You'll never catch me on a two nighter. I need at least 7 days. Twelve or fourteen is even better. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
