Oakman58 Posted January 12, 2017 Author #176 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Can you only use the sun deck on 18 and 19 if you have the posh pass or can anyone use it? Thanks! Posh only takes up a portion of deck 18. The biggest part of it is open to everyone. The forward part of deck 19 is part of Posh but there is an area for everyone on that deck too. Be careful, apparently deck 19 is clothing optional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BABYJOSIE98 Posted January 19, 2017 #185 Share Posted January 19, 2017 We are leaving tomorrow for our Saturday Epic sailing! So we all have the UBP so do you still sign for drinks and have the option to leave more of a tip?? Can you have some $1 bills and give them a cash tip?? Just wondering what is best. I know it always helps service to tip the bartenders and our group is really good about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLACKBURNROVERS Posted January 19, 2017 #186 Share Posted January 19, 2017 So we all have the UBP so do you still sign for drinks and have the option to leave more of a tip?? Can you have some $1 bills and give them a cash tip?? No longer signing for any drink. Just hand your card. You can put a $1 or €1 over the bar if you wish, but I have always found the service is excellent anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We used one dollars bills to tip the servers and they really seemed to appreciate it. Any drinks you order while the ship is still at Port Canaveral will be taxed and that will show up on your final bill. Have a great cruise.

Niffernay Posted October 31, 2017 #193 Share Posted October 31, 2017 After the show we went back to our cabin and called it a night. I didn’t notice our towel animal that night until I looked up, we had a bat hanging from our ceiling. I want one of these!! ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oakman58 Posted March 7, 2018 Author #198 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Oakman, I recently discovered your NCL Jade review and am now going through your other reviews. Thanks for sharing! I truly enjoy your humor and your reviews are great!!! Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk Thank you I'm glad you enjoyed it. At the end of this cruise I swore I wouldn't do another cruise on one of the mega-ships. They were just too big for my liking. And then a cruise on the Epic came up that went to ports I've never been to and on top of that the cruise offered good perks. So what did I do? I booked a future cruise on the Epic. At least I know exactly what to expect this time. The cruise is in 2020 so I have plenty of time to cancel if a better cruise comes up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
