roger001 Posted July 15, 2015 #2 Share Posted July 15, 2015 It's a big ship. Explore decks 6, 7, and 8 from end to end. Walk around the waterfront, deck 8. Go up to 15, 16, and 17 to check out all the outdoor stuff. Or just go drink Mojitos at the Mojito bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LrgPizza Posted July 15, 2015 #4 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Go to your cabin. Go to the muster drill. If you are finished with lunch early, and the ship is still only a little full, go enjoy the water slides while there aren't any lines. Pack swimsuits in your carry on.

missdixie Posted July 15, 2015 #5 Share Posted July 15, 2015 What I like to do is explore the ship. Lots of exploring to do. The ship is big. Be sure to read the daily for events you might not want to miss the 1st day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wndmom Posted July 15, 2015 #6 Share Posted July 15, 2015 I'm eating lunch, then getting a drink while my boys try out the water slides. You could also check out the spa or kids club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansolosmom Posted July 15, 2015 #7 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Out of curiosity do they have everything open so you can check it out? Can you look at the thermal room in the spa? Can you check out Vibe? the ice bar? When we were on Princess they had a bingo type card which listed places on the ship to visit. When you visited the spots (spa, gym etc) they stamped your card and at the sail away you could put your card in a box. They drew cards out of the box for prizes. My mom won $25 OBC. I don't even know if they still do that but I thought it was a great way to familiarize yourself with the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Medtech2 Posted July 15, 2015 #9 Share Posted July 15, 2015 We like to go by the Spa for a tour and sign up for drawings. If you're interested in a Spa pass you would want to get it early. As soon as cabins are open I like to unpack before muster and sailaway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenjer Posted July 16, 2015 #10 Share Posted July 16, 2015 We bring on swimsuits, sunblock and 1 beach towel. After eating lunch we hit the pool and water slides. Most people are checking out the ship and waiting to get in their rooms. Both will be there later and its a great time for the kids to hit the slides with no lines. about a hour before Muster we head to our room get ready for muster and unpack if the luggage has come. Go to muster, go to sail away, go to dinner, then walk around the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiamondGirl83 Posted July 16, 2015 #11 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Hi can anyone tell me what time you can get on the ship? I have a fly cruise booked and will be staying over the night before so assuming I will get picked up early on embarkation day. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a fly cruise booked and will be staying over the night before so assuming I will get picked up early on embarkation day. Thanks We like to arrive port terminal about 10:30 ahead of most of the crowd. Check in begins about then and moves quickly. Boarding usually begins about 11:30. You will have a low boarding number and be in the first groups probably. Then just explore the ship, eat, drink, people watch and rooms are usually ready 1 or 1:30 ish. Vacation has begun!

DiamondGirl83 Posted July 16, 2015 #13 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Sounds great. I cannot wait! As I've booked a package NCL will arrange taking me from hotel to pier. Just hope it's early so I can make the most of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
