oregonian123 Posted February 1, 2017 #601 Share Posted February 1, 2017 If you booked today 2/1/17 nine months would be 11/1/17 Thank you. That is what I thought. So, on the Latitudes Chart below, we can only get the extra Insiders point AND the extra point for booking 9 months out, if we book on the Breakaway, Epic or Spirit, book for dates after Nov 1 and book it by tomorrow, Feb 2, right? The others are too late for us to book to get both, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uniall Posted February 1, 2017 #603 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I've booked a 2019 cruise and had to take my second choice of cabins because someone else had already booked my first choice. Yes, and what is the point you're trying to make?? I have three 2018 cruise booked Jan 10, 2017 all for suites. I will get a bonus point for each night since they are suites. I will get another bonus point for every night since they were 9 month early bookings made before Feb 3, 2017. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That people have book cruises for 2017, 2018, and 2019. It is not just 2017 and 2018. There is even a cruise in 2020 I am interested in, but they have not opened it for booking yet. I hate waiting until the last minute to book a cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What has that got to do with your eligibility to receive early booking bonus points? The issue being discussed is whether any booking (it must have already been bookable or will be bookable before Feb 3, 2017) made on sailing 9+months in the future before Feb 3, 2017 will still get early bonus points? The anwer is YES. ooorah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orleanscruiser Posted February 1, 2017 #607 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I might have missed it in the FAQ. Does anyone know how dinner with the officers will work. I am platinum plus, and cruising on the Escape May 27th. How do I find out the details of the Concierge Service, Priority Restaurant and Entertainment Seating, Dinner with Officers, Behind-the-Scenes Ship Tour, Priority Tender Tickets and Priority Disembarkation? Simply stop by the CrusieNext desk in the Atrium and your CruiseNext team will give you all the details you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So people got concerned that early booking bonus points would not be awarded to 2018 cruises. Then it was said that early booking bonus points would be awarded to 2018 cruises. But it is clear that people are booking in 2019 also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that any cruise available for booking before Feb 3 Will be good for early booking bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else read on NCL's FB page that Platinum and above will be able to bring 1 case of 12oz bottled water on board but must receive prior approval from Guest Services?

Landl cruiser Posted February 2, 2017 #612 Share Posted February 2, 2017 I've been informed by two middle management persons that my 2018 bookings will receive the 9 month early booking bonus points. That is my understanding also. We have three booked for 2018 and expect to receive the extra points. Not that it matters much to us, we will already be at the next level.

"Manic Mode" was probably a more correct term. I (and many others) had to quickly separate facts from fiction and rumors. Then, we had to ascertain available options. Finally, we had to determine a plan of action and execute it in any available window of opportunity. Now, that I've completed those steps, I can sit back, breathe, and relax in the knowledge I'll reach Ambassador level within 16 months. Then, "She who must be obeyed" and I will learn if we're allowed to take our 7 day award cruise on Pride of America in the late fall or early winter 2018.

TheDougOut Posted February 2, 2017 Author #614 Share Posted February 2, 2017 The Ambassador free cruise... so you don't get any promotions? If that's the case, by the time I add in UBP and SDP, isnt it more like a small discount cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've heard, you will have to take the complementary cruise within one year of attaining Ambassador level. Also each cruiser who graduates to that level is entitled to a complementary cruise. Oh the challenges we meet when we have to find two cruises to book within the next year:rolleyes:;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
