stefmaia Posted February 15, 2020 #2 Share Posted February 15, 2020 I don't think I have ever heard of a luggage limit on the ship itself. If you are flying to embark , you may want to check on your airline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted February 15, 2020 #3 Share Posted February 15, 2020 (edited) They don’t really care number or weight of suitcases. Just tip the porter accordingly. Airlines charge hefty fees though. Edited February 15, 2020 by BirdTravels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gershep Posted February 15, 2020 #6 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Interesting. I never heard about only 2 pieces of checked luggage per person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's on NCL's web site, in the "Prepare for Your Cruise" section. Here's what it says under luggage: Quote Bag Allowances Each guest is allowed two pieces of checked luggage with a 50-pound maximum each, same as airlines. Luggage should be clearly labeled with your name, address and contact number. https://www.ncl.com/freestyle-cruise/prepare-for-your-cruise/what-to-pack In all my years of reading this board, I've never, ever, heard of this being enforced. (Is it possible no one has brought that much luggage aboard, hence no discussion of this? ) I have no personal experience with this, because we've never had more than one checked suitcase each.

If you log into the portal and try to download the documents there should also be a feature to download luggage tags. Basically its an 8 1/2 by 11 or A4 paper form that you fold into a luggage tag. Commonly used when you book to close to departure and they don't have time to mail out luggage tags. I would just use the extra tags and call it a day. At drop off the porters don't check the number of bags per passenger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something often overlooked....... you will have to store those extra suitcases in your cabin and sometimes it gets cramped. There's room under the bed but stewards don't always get under there to clean so be warned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually put 2 on each luggage on different handles on the off chance one of them gets ripped off in the process of getting to my cabin. Nothing stops you from printing out more though.

I guess that American Tourister gorilla commercial had a deeper impact on me than I thought. 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing stops you from printing out more though. This is the best approach. We sail multiple times a year and always hav Le a tag on the top handle and side handle of each case. There have been a few times (not many) when one of these tags are missing when the bag gets to our room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted February 16, 2020 #15 Share Posted February 16, 2020 They really don't count your bags....so don't worry overmuch about that. It's really the airlines that limit you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
