Got the same Mail for Germany today, too

It seems identical to what is offered on the US website. GTY cabins receive no promos but get their cabin at a great price. For those who don't drink or want speicalty dining, it's a great deal as long as you don't care where your cabin is located.

 

Is there a question here or just an announcement? Just wondering if you're looking for confirmation of info...

 

Cheers

Not looking for any confirmation, I posted the confirmation.

 

Does the US site include the daily service charge?

[Iggy68]

The 'just cruise' price makes the other prices look exorbitantly expensive. Is it my imagination or have the other prices gone up to make 'just cruise' look like a bargain? I feel like I might have been priced out of the NCL cruise market

All the prices are just the base rate + taxes.

They get the daily service charge ("DSC") included in the "Just Cruise" fare, whereas it is an additional $13.99 per person per day in the US and Canada.

Well...I tracked a few cruises...and most of them the new just cruise prize is more or almost the same (10-20 cheaper) than the X Cabin b4...so you basicly pay the same or sometimes even more (100 on one cruise) and you dont have the UBP included anymore...

 

As far as I see it...no reason to book just cruise...I rather book with my USTA...get to choose the cabin...will still check b4 every cruise...

 

And not to forget they increased the service charge from 18 to 20...

 

I could have understood just cruise if they dropped the prices ... but it is an increase...

 

Btw on all my tracked cruises they raised prices for the normal cabins...

 

Wow
