Good for you!  As soon as I got the email, I went to the apps and it took hours for the offers to show up. Most all were sold out.   By any chance would you be able or were you able to combine it with a cruise next certificate if you had one?

This will be my first NCL cruise. Since the NCL rewards were released I have seen them reload and be available at the refresh time each day. I also saw some people post that they had called and were told both people in the cabin could each use a $ off reward but it hasn't been confirmed by anyone actually booking yet.

My confirmation said admin fee but it was just the cabin cost that was the same on the website minus $750. Technically you can all it an admin fee because it says it on the confirmation but it's not the $20pp per day people are charged on comped cruises I hear about.

 

I also got Free at Sea, 50% off flights for solo, and used my $300 CruiseFirst. The 20% off Diamond status discount from Caesars Rewards was not combinable. I don't anticipate an issue with the shareholder benefit since it's not a comped cruise.

 

Here's my breakdown (Cabin aka Voyage fare was $1063.50 inside guarantee for solo)

you can use the shareholder benefit on comped cruises.  so yes, you shouldn't expect to have any problems with using it on your cruise.  Were you charged a solo supplement using this?

Just grabbed the $250 award today.  Will book later this week and see how it goes. Now all my reward points are gone, but the cruise I want is only $199pp anyway 🙂

not 199. 199 is without free at sea.... so its just a bit more than this 🙂

My wife and I each bought the 750.00 off coupon hoping to use both coupons on the same cruise. NCL casino said no today. They say we would have to buy two separate cruises. Bummer, this could get expensive.

Wow I keep checking every day for the 750 off which is the best deal in my opinion. By any chance do you know if that 750 is refreshed every day, if so, what time?  I’ll stay up till midnight if I have to.

It looks like that one might actually be sold out. Just check it when it gets refreshed each day. There’s a set schedule. There’s a chance it might get refreshed off schedule but the chance of you grabbing it is very slim at that time.

 

Maybe my post earlier was against the rules. Google “daily myvegas refresh times”

here's my experience:

 

Sunday I "bought" the $250 voucher from the Konomi app.  

Monday - called the Casinos at Sea Number. Waiting about 10 mins until I got connected to a great agent.  I was apparently her first redemption, and she was happy that I was patient through the whole thing.   She had a problem bringing up the code, but after she entered my Latitudes number, the voucher was already attached to my account. 

I then threw a spanner into everything and got the Free at Sea Plus - yet another thing she never booked before.

 

but it all got done.  just the strange thing on the invoice under requests was for a Congratulations cake... 🙂

The $750 off award was the only one not offered this morning. Dang it.  More hunting tomorrow.

How long did it take you to get enough points.  I've heard of this app before, I don't gamble really,  but $750 off a cruise would be nice.  At first, I thought you could redeem right away, but looked at the wrong points.  Looks like the millions of points you get for free get converted to the premium ones, then you use those premium ones.  But man.. 750,000 points, that's a lot of playing slots on a game.. ha.

See my above posts.. Just wondering, so is it a legit $250 off a cruise?  Let's say you find a 2 person, balcony cruise for like $2,300 off peak these days.. plus their fees, etc, would you expect pretty much $250 off?

Yes.. straight $250 off the cabin price. 

so travelling solo, my cabin was 458 plus taxes/free at sea grats... and they took 250 off that making the cabin 208 + axes/free at sea grats

By playing all 6 myVegas apps to their full daily points limits, you can earn roughly 35,000 Loyalty Points per day.

I have a friend and both her and her husband each had the $500 off. Today she booked and was able to use both their $500 off for one cabin. They got a straight $1000 off.

I don't know if you just can't use 2 of the $750 off but the others you can. Or if she was able to use both because she booked an expensive cruise, maybe there is a certain spend threshold that had to be met to use 2.

She was also able to stack a $500 cruise next certificate on top of that.

Might be worth trying to call again and maybe get someone that will let you use 2 or at least tell you why you can't in detail.

Can the $750 off be used on an existing reservation or does it need to be a new booking?  And I read that the reward needs to be used within 60 days.  Does that mean you must cruise within 60 days or that you must book a cruise within 60 days?  Finally can the reward amount be used as the deposit on a cruise?

New reservations only.  you have 60 days to redeem the reward, but can sail anytime.

 

I do not believe this can be used as a deposit, because it's reflected as a discount in the cabin price, not as a payment.
