PattyWinters503 Posted August 15, 2021 #1 Share Posted August 15, 2021 One of the wonderful things about cruise critic is the ability to meet people and greet them! Over the decades I have run many meet and greets. This was by far the most fun and energetic and upbeat meet and greet ever! The crew and officers were sooooo excited to be back at sea. We even made up some swag for them to show them our appreciation. We had a poster made and we all signed it for the crew! We had a lovely gift exchange as well! Great trip and great meet and greet! NCL provided their BEST hors d’oeuvres , flights of beer snd cocktails and the DJ! Thank you Cruise Critic and NCL!!

snorklinbarb Posted August 16, 2021 #4 Share Posted August 16, 2021 What a great event you planned and the officers certainly did go all out, aided by a very enthusiastic group of servers and bar staff. Actually looks like a wonderful party! Lots of familiar faces - thanks for putting up the photos and videos! Congrats to your daughter on her accomplishment! What's up next on the cruising agenda?!

Shellbelle28 Posted August 18, 2021 #5 Share Posted August 18, 2021 @minnievanmommie HI there! Looks like your meet and mingle was fantastic! I am organizing one for the first post-shutdown sailing of the Bliss (Mexican Riviera, 10/24-31). I was wondering if you had any issues getting into touch with the ship events coordinator since crewing the ship was underway while planning? Any tips to share?

We did do a slot pull it was a 30 dollar but in. Sadly we walked away with only 13 bucks each but we had such a good time. I gave away some little prizes. The casino gave us some bottles of wine to give out also. It was a blast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
