podgeandrodge Posted July 10, 2021 #1 Share Posted July 10, 2021 Anyone else gettting "UH-OH.LOOKS LIKE OUR SITE NEEDED TO TAKE A SHORT VACATION. 500 - Internal Server Error" on NCL EU site, when trying to view cruises (search etc. works, but when you go to view details of the cruises) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiefMateJRK Posted July 10, 2021 #4 Share Posted July 10, 2021 Probably a lot of folks on their weekends waking up and realizing that cruising is real again and they don't want to miss the fun. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted July 10, 2021 #5 Share Posted July 10, 2021 Nope. No problems today. Looked at our existing reservations and looked for a new cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I checked USA site with a VPN and it's fine. Only EU site. Funny, EU site main page says 'explore 447 cruises'. US one says something like 368. Hope that's not an omen!

This past Monday NCL changed the "account name" or "user ID" for a large number of passengers. It seems to have affected anyone who had been using their actual name as their account ID. Try your email address (including the "dot com" part) as your user name and you should be able to log in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes there are legal requirements in one country which are different from another. Sometimes it's just a matter of customary practice or expectations. As an example, sometimes they offer two B2B cruises as a combined cruise to passengers in one country, but only as separate cruises in another. That would add an extra listing for the first country that doesn't appear for the second. There probably are several other possible examples that could add up to dozens more listings in the UK than in the US. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would they count 3 cruises for bookings offered from 3 different departure ports? Seems to me, that would have be counted differently and could account for the additional cruises. Correction, I think the number would only be 2 different ports per cruise. Edited July 10, 2021 by All-ready2cruise correction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casofilia Posted July 10, 2021 #19 Share Posted July 10, 2021 Mine is working in NZ; I know you asked about EU but thought I would butt in!! However could I suggest that you never use your full email address anywhere on Cruise Critic; I think it is a prime site for spammers to trawl.

Seems to me, that would have be counted differently and could account for the additional cruises. Correction, I think the number would only be 2 different ports per cruise. So, for the hell of it, I looked into this. It seemed strange that they would market individual cruises in different countries in terms of numbers, as they go from the port they go from. So..I counted by ship the cruises on the EU site, then the US site. Differences still 368 vs 447. Duh! The reason for this is that the EU site includes the "Fly & Cruise" packages. When I removed them, it's the same number of cruises. Exactly. Which, when you think about it, sorta makes sense. Anyway, there's 15 minutes of time I will never get back! 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Customary practices, customer expectations, regulatory requirements, or some other obscure reason had to be at the bottom of it.
