genman36 Posted December 29, 2014 #1 Share Posted December 29, 2014 FYI - Mistake on My NCL Background - My wife and I are booked on the Gem for a 10-day cruise leaving 2/27/15. In the website under My NCL, I have the option to pre-pay the DSC. Below is the text I found. I does not make sense, I say it should read $12.00 PP, per cruise. Pre-Pay Service Charges Add Prepaid Service Charges Why is there a service charge? The convenience of pre-paying service charges allows you to plan your budget prior to your cruise giving you additional freedom while on board. A discretionary charge of $13.33 per person per cruise day for all guests 3 years or older will automatically be added to your onboard account. Your service charges will total $240.00 for all guests, for your entire cruise. Total Service Charges: $240.00 Add Prepaid Service Charges The total is correct - $240 = $12.00 x 2 x 10. The text appears to be wrong. Has anyone else noticed this? Genman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cliffd64 Posted December 29, 2014 #3 Share Posted December 29, 2014 As far as I know the DSC is still $12 per person per day... Perhaps they are planning to raise it soon? Have no idea why the info on the page would be wrong... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColinIllinois Posted December 29, 2014 #4 Share Posted December 29, 2014 $13.33 would have been for two people for NINE days doing the math in my head. The total is fine though so I wouldn't worry about it. People have talked about that before here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdvmd Posted December 29, 2014 #5 Share Posted December 29, 2014 I remember this being discussed too. No worries, it is $12 per person, per day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Got Tequila? Posted December 29, 2014 #6 Share Posted December 29, 2014 I think this issue came up on certain GEM cruises once they switched them from 9 to 10 days. I'm not sure why it hasn't been fixed, the issue has been around for awhile now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
