ew101 Posted January 9, 2022 #1 Share Posted January 9, 2022 The new 8.5/11 NCL brochure arrived in the mail. "Feel Free to Take a Peek at Your Next Vacation." I notice no one in any photo is wearing a mask and the black stack smoke has been carefully airbrushed away. I get it these were printed in October, but my reading of the Lanham Act of 1946 Lanham Act - Wikipedia would seem to indicate these should have gone to the recycling and not the post office. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RYMOMA Posted January 9, 2022 #9 Share Posted January 9, 2022 So then every magazine out there should be recycled for false advertising. airbrushing of models and false articles toss it all… it will make my job at the post office easier…. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

complawyer Posted January 13, 2022 #15 Share Posted January 13, 2022 ok, since i havent gotten this mailing, for the sake of argument i'll assume you are correct... so what! no masks, no smokestacks thats the fault of the photographer did the brochure give you the correct information about cruises, ports of call, and prices? if so, isnt that what a brochure is for? did it include false or inaccurate information? methinks you dost protest (way) to much. if you think there is a problem, either throw away the brochure, or book with a different line. while i agree there is a lot to complain about with ncl, dont nit pick. as they say:"dont sweat the petty stuff, and dont pet the sweaty studd) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diver2014 Posted January 13, 2022 #16 Share Posted January 13, 2022 I thought it was a beautiful, well made brochure. But keep in mind, this IS the Cruise Critic forum so anything goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of sweating and beautiful, I think the 'passengers' in the brochure were way too good-looking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckyinpa Posted January 13, 2022 #19 Share Posted January 13, 2022 airbrushing of models is just awful! also one home show i watch puts pancake face on all the realtors, even the men! they look like dolls. who likes airbrushing, ick? all natural is the best so if the NCL ad doesnt have natural then i think we need to burn it! 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
