Rare ontheweb Posted August 3, 2023 #1 Share Posted August 3, 2023 (edited) This has to be about the 4th time they sent it after the original was sent. Every time I get one of these e-mails, I have a sinking feeling in my stomach that the flights have changed. Will we have to get new seats this late? Will we have to let the new flight know we want vegetarian meals? And every time is exactly the same. BTW, our flight out to the cruise is tomorrow.

I read that somewhere else that is why it happened to someone else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I called and confirmed the change, checked also to confirm my seat was the same as well. All good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have also received emails from the airline saying "your flight has changed," and it's never been a cancellation or anything dramatic. It was usually a change in the schedule by a minute or two. Once it was a change in the flight number, and another time they substituted a different kind of aircraft. Didn't affect my travel plans AT ALL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I in fact just called NCL a little while ago because I had some questions. And after asking and having them answered, I noted that every time they sent me the airline stuff again, I worried that things had changed and we were going to have to get seats assigned again and let them know about vegetarian meals. She then looked at our flights and said nothing had changed and wondered to why they sent them several times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omahabob Posted August 3, 2023 #8 Share Posted August 3, 2023 They switched from peanuts to almonds, so everybody had to get new confirmations. Probably just a system thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WickedRed Posted August 3, 2023 #9 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Feel like I've been getting my Air Confirmations once a week since they were assigned. Brightside, I haven't received any emails about watching the muster drill again yet. Still have 9 days so that can change. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent999 Posted August 3, 2023 #10 Share Posted August 3, 2023 It is, of course, one thing for people here to know "what" NCL is doing. What I don't get is the reason behind the belief that people on an Internet forum could explain "why" NCL does something. Is the expectation here based on the belief that NCL reaches out to CC members to inform them of the reasoning behind their corporate decisions? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omahabob Posted August 3, 2023 #11 Share Posted August 3, 2023 No, but sending out additional air confirmations is hardly a corporate decision. Quite often people here do know why NCL does things a certain way. So, what's the harm in asking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been told by people on Cruise Critic that anytime you log into your NCL account online, that triggers another mailer/brochure from them in the mail. And I wouldn't doubt it. Anytime I log into my American Airlines app to check on an upcoming flight, I get a notification in my Google calendar that my "flight has changed." I offer that as a possible explanation for why contacting NCL about ANYTHING might prompt them to tell you things have changed, when in reality, they haven't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably just a system thing. Almonds are more expensive. They have to cut cost again, so it's back to peanuts. Wait for your confirmation email. (Then they'll change it to a piece of cracker) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just got the watch the muster drill video reminder for the first time today, in fact 2 of them sent 1minute apart. Flight if tomorrow, cruise is 2 days after that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
