MichiganBrewski Posted December 22, 2014 Author #26 Share Posted December 22, 2014 That's an interesting tidbit right there, at least from previous reviews. I didn't find many Britain style items, some cigarettes from the uk but it seemed as though they had a big stock of rccl apparel, trinkets, etc. available for purchase.

MichiganBrewski Posted December 22, 2014 Author #27 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Here come the compasses... Day 1 I apologize if they are blurry. If you cannot read them well let me know and I will Re upload a better picture. I have to take photos of them with my phone and use the app because my scanner isn't working :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichiganBrewski Posted December 22, 2014 Author #28 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Crap. They didn't turn out well, let me give that another try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takevtr1 Posted December 22, 2014 #29 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I will be sailing her in Aug. 2015. Can't wait to hear more about this ship as we normally sail Carnival. Sailed once on Serenade of the Seas, but mostly Carnival. And to the person who posted about St. Kitts, I am sorry to hear about your visit. I have been there many times both on land vacations and cruise stops and never once felt unsafe. It is a beautiful island with great beaches and a very active nightlife.

mickev99 Posted December 22, 2014 #32 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Yes, the compasses are too small to see, unfortunately. I always have to download stuff to photobucket and then share from there. I was wondering if the had the show "Once Upon a Time"? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missymatt Posted December 22, 2014 #33 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Was there a special for dining the first night at a specialty restaurant? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it works. I did not see that show available. We went to all of the shows except for the farewell show. We went to the headliner (very good) the ice show - "freeze frame" and the comedy shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichiganBrewski Posted December 23, 2014 Author #35 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Was there a special for dining the first night at a specialty restaurant? None that I had noticed but I will check the compass for day one and let you know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norwane Posted December 23, 2014 #36 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Hi - Thanks for answering our questions! Did you feel like the drink package was worth it? Were the specialty restaurants open for lunch on any or all of the days? Did you try Chops or Giovanni's and did you like them? Any idea who the CD will be in April? :confused: What was your favorite and least favorite parts about the IOS? Thank you!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were the specialty restaurants open for lunch on any or all of the days? Did you try Chops or Giovanni's and did you like them? Any idea who the CD will be in April? :confused: What was your favorite and least favorite parts about the IOS? Thank you!! I found the drink package to be very much worth it. Never had to worry about how much I was spending and I never felt as if I was drinking just to make up the money. I easily cleared my $50 a day :D :) I cannot recall if any speciality restaurants were open for lunch but I can check the compasses which will also be posted soon. I did not try either of them. My favorite part was the ship itself, it is in great shape and well kept up, my least favorite part was probably the crowding of the windjammer and lack of open tables. I'm sure this is partially because of the other guests on board who seemed to have left their basic manners on land, but I don't let them ruin my vacation.

Rare BillOh Posted January 5, 2015 #41 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Happy to answer any questions! May do a short review. I had the premium package is anyone has questions about that. It seemed they changed the logo shop/duty free already from its time in England. Seemed to be Americanized again. Feel free to ask anything and I'll try my best to answer! Any mention of them adding the Coke Freestyle machines to this ship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
js Posted January 6, 2015 #42 Share Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) Saralee, we are a cruise away from Diamond and have been for quite a few years since we have been sailing NCL. If you enjoy suites, I will tell you to please book a Haven Suite on one of the newer ships. The Suite Life on NCL is fabulous. We have our own restaurant, full large bar, haven area with small pool, jacuzzi, sauna and spa treatments are also available. We also have our own outside deck where haven crew walk around with water spritzers, fruit skewers, etc. During the day snacks are also available by the Haven pool. Champagne sailaway and two wonderful concierges are able to get you hard to get reservations and change times for dining with a smile and a phone call. We will be back on RCCL in January and look forward to returning to the cruiseline but since you may be shopping around, try NCL that has a dedicated Haven area. Sorry you didnt have a great vacation and thank you for posting. Edited January 6, 2015 by js Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
js Posted January 6, 2015 #43 Share Posted January 6, 2015 MichiganBrewer, thanks so much for your review! Im sailing Indy over NYE and cannot wait!

Good to hear that the logo shop is back. I truly don't understand the Americanized concept....it is the company's logo shop and should be the same for all sailings, unless in Europe they can't sell 'logo merchandise' -- which would make no sense.
