Just booked - package deals?

[mirage2u]

I just booked the Pearl out of Tampa and booked a balcony cabin that was supposed to include all 6 of their offers. Where does it show that I got all the packages? Any other tips would also be appreciated; I haven't sailed Norwegian for a while.

Our confirmation lists it under the add-ons section.

I don't see an add on section. I'm a bit nervous, guess I'll call them tomorrow

It should look something like this

[mirage2u]

I don't have that on mine and i think it's because I booked a guaranteed cabin.

Did you book with a TA or direct with NCL.  If with NCL just the 800 number and request an aminity update for your reservation number.  Not sure about the TA.

Did you book a sailaway or a regular gty balcony because there were no balconies left to assign in that category.  I'd call now they are still open, sounds to me like you booked a sailaway which is no perks at all

[mirage2u]

I just called them. I booked a sail away so no perks. Now to decide if I want to upgrade for $1000...

Thanks for the feedback!

are you saying $1000 for 2 or just $1000 per person? If for 2, yes, I would take it. $1000 per person, that is a decision you have to make based on how much you want those perks? It is good you called. Otherwise you would have been in for a huge disappointment.

$1000 total. I'm not sure we would end up spending that much onboard. My boyfriend can drink a lot but I don't. Plus we have 4 days at port and only 2 at sea. I think between our drinks, 3 specialty restaurants, and internet for 1 of us, it will be less than $1000. I won't use the excursion credits. I am very comfortable researching and booking those not through a cruise line.

I did just get an offer to bid on a mini-suite so the ship must not be filled to capacity so I will continue to watch the price. Maybe it will go down and I can upgrade and get the perks.

It might be $1,000 more in fare, but you need to add the gratuities in ... another $500 for drinks and dining packages depending on the length of the cruise

NCL's "free" packages aren't anywhere near free considering what you have to pay additionally to qualify... and then pay more in tips on top of that.

The drink package is a good deal even if you are a "casual" drinker but you will pay $134 each additional for gratuities on the drink package and a $15 gratuity charge on the Dining plan so that $500 is more like $650.    3-4 drinks a day will average about $45-$60 (including gratuities) or approx $400 per person in beverages alone ( if you are not drinking "top shelf").- Internet is another $180 per week and a  3 meal dining plan is $94.60 per person... . You have to carefully consider apples to apples.   Keep in mind the UPB also includes soda and non-alcohol frozen drinks.   So, even if you keep your drinks to a minimum and don't buy internet minutes you will still spend about $500 per person on board.

That's nothing new.

Isn't it hilarious how the 6 "free" package deals keep expiring, but then a day later a new email comes and the deals are back on again.
