Few Cruiser Questions!? Last NCL was 2011. Help?

[caddykid12]

Hey all. Havent cruised NCL since 2011.

 

I have 8 latitude points right now. I am currently booked for a 14 day cruise on Breakaway and booked 9 months advance giving 14 more pts...so giving me 28 total points (for such cruise) will i become silver for THIS sailing? Or still bronze... and wont add the points to my status until your cruise has ended? Carnival makes is where if you are changing levels during the cruise. U start at the newest achieved level for the full trip.

 

Casino wise... cashless/ticketless? Money in and.... slip out. Or money gets uploaded into a players bank? 1500 slot points for Drink Card?

 

Juice and coffee station's [on breakaway] elderly grandparents. Is the free juice and coffee only located in buffet? Or are there other places for them as well to get the drinks included with thier fare?

 

Do you have to complete online checkin first to view excursions? Cant seem to find it on NCL.com once logged in. Only packages shown are in room gifts or bon voyage packages. Wanna view/book a few b4 they sell out potentially.

 

Thanks everyone for the help. Im sure theres been a few changes from my last NCL trip. Just wanna be on the right page when i go. All lines are different.

Not Carnival, on NCL you don't get your new status until after the cruise is over.

Juice and coffee are located in the buffet.

No, but things do not all appear at once, they come in slowly. You should see everything about 90 days out.

Unless this is a Transatlantic, you will earn points after your first leg, then after your second leg (14 points each).

Cash in, ticket out. Or pull your card it and will be loaded on your card.

 

1500 points for a drinks card. That's $7500 in regular slot play or $15,000 in video poker play.

Juice and coffee station's [on breakaway] elderly grandparents. Is the free juice and coffee only located in buffet? Or are there other places for them as well to get the drinks included with thier fare?

Not exactly sure what your question is. There are juice dispensers in the buffet for breakfast. They switch to Ice Tea and flavored waters after breakfast. Coffee in the buffet during operating hours. O'Shehans 24/7.

no reason not to check in.

Have a great cruise! The breakaway is a beautiful ship!

Thanks both of you. So free juice and coffee is available at o'sheeans too? Would help grandparents as they are fwd ship. Rather than having to walk to garden cafe.
