barric Posted November 26, 2022 #1 Share Posted November 26, 2022 We are 63 days out from our Dawn sailing. For 11 days, the Thermal Suite pass is $259. Is there any history of the price going down as we get closer to sailaway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ggTexasGal Posted November 26, 2022 #4 Share Posted November 26, 2022 I had the same thought! Then I realized that OP is booked on the Dawn (which has fewer "bells and whistles.") Prices can vary greatly based upon: ship, itinerary, and duration of cruise. None-the-less, if I wanted to utilize the Spa Suite during an 11 day cruise, the $259 seems reasonable by today's standards. (Break the cost down by the number of days. If used only 6 days, it would be under $44 per day!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCL does not run "sales" (like Royal who sends out "sale sale sale" emails 4-5 times a week from the second you book). 7-day passes on the bigger ships have gone up over 60% this year and are running around $339 on our last few cruises (i.e., prices are going up). $259 for 11-days is reasonable for today's prices.

MagnoliaBlossom Posted November 26, 2022 #6 Share Posted November 26, 2022 The thermal pass prices have really gotten ridiculous. My husband and I are “spa rats” and usually get a pass, but it’s now frequently cheaper to get a spa balcony than it is to get a balcony and buy the pass. I certainly love those heated loungers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missnd Posted November 26, 2022 #7 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Price for my upcoming 5 day on the Bliss was recently $229. I'd say $259 for twice as many days is a pretty good deal! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As others have mentioned you are more likely to see a price increase or a sold out situation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zzdoug Posted November 29, 2022 #10 Share Posted November 29, 2022 Do any of the NCL ships have separate gender-specific wet areas that are clothing optional? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare DCGuy64 Posted November 29, 2022 #12 Share Posted November 29, 2022 I'd pay that, too. On our upcoming 9-day on the Epic the price was $313 per person. $259 is a freakin' bargain for 11 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I recall, Dawn's steam/sauna are in the locker rooms. I'm a gym rat and I only know they are there because the locker rooms were the nearest restrooms and I'd used them a few times. So, my knowledge is only from passing through so to speak. Whether they are clothing optional or not, I'd assume they are seeing as they are in gender specific locker rooms. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect that the Thermal Suite, like Vibe, has become part of a "Haven lite" experience that more people are seeing as an alternative to the much, much higher prices of Haven. I wouldn't be surprised to see those prices continue to climb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
