kathiewe Posted December 11, 2017 #1 Share Posted December 11, 2017 We will be sailing on the Getaway 2 weeks after DH's 45th in March. Since we will be busy with life ahead of our cruise, would like to plan a few birthday surprises while we are on vacation. Any suggestions of what we could do are welcomed. We have excursions already booked, so looking for ship based ideas. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeBTN Posted December 11, 2017 #3 Share Posted December 11, 2017 If it’s in the budget, upgrade to a suite. Specialty restaurant for a “birthday” dinner (my vote is for Le Bistro). If he’s into massages, a couples massage on board. Buy decorations through NCL and the room will be decorated for his birthday. Some of the romance/celebration packages include some of the above items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabRat Posted December 11, 2017 #4 Share Posted December 11, 2017 I was just looking at these myself for my DW this spring. https://www.ncl.com/onboard-packages/party-packages or https://www.ncl.com/onboard-packages/romance-packages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruise4kicks Posted December 11, 2017 #5 Share Posted December 11, 2017 For my SO's 50th I brought a slew of decorations for the cabin. I made a spa appointment and decorated the room while he was gone. It was over the top! Stuff hanging everywhere. The steward got a big kick out of it, too, and hung around the hall to see his response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Jo Posted December 11, 2017 #7 Share Posted December 11, 2017 We were on Escape last week and purchased Vibe passes. There were three birthdays that I knew of and two of the spouses arranged to have birthday cakes brought up to Vibe on different days and some snacks also. It was fun to have everyone join in on the birthday fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldguysandgalls Posted December 11, 2017 #8 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Perhaps you can arrange (in advance) a 'surprise' invite from the Captain for your husband to visit the bridge of the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garycarla Posted December 11, 2017 #9 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Perhaps you can arrange (in advance) a 'surprise' invite from the Captain for your husband to visit the bridge of the ship. Not to put a damper on things, there will be quite a few folks on board with birthdays, anniversaries and honeymoon. Visits to the bridge, with or without the captain are difficult to get Decorating the room is a great idea. As tours, cakes, etc... I guess that depends on what is "cool" to your husband. Hard to say without knowing him a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that it may be difficult to get that invite but worth a try and if she succeeds she can tell her husband "do you realise how difficult it was to get this for you".

jdvmd Posted December 11, 2017 #11 Share Posted December 11, 2017 I go to the Dollar Tree and get Happy Birthday stuff. Much cheaper than the package. Have your TA request a cake through NCL. We are celebrating two birthdays next week on the Escape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
