I'manewbie Posted October 11, 2023 #1 Share Posted October 11, 2023 We are sailing on the 10/15 NCL Encore. I just recd an email that they are canceling our Choir of Man reservation. Has anyone else recd this or am I just special? They suggested we go to the ticket office on deck 6 but never mentioned if there was another performance of CofM that we could catch.

Hope this doesn’t mean that we won’t be seeing it at all (but I suspect that might be the case) Disappointing because i was already thinking the entertainment on this ship seemed pretty dismal. (I enjoy production shows on ships). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perkolater Posted October 11, 2023 #4 Share Posted October 11, 2023 We're scheduled the next week (Departing 10/22) received the same email today. Wow. NCL continues to provide less and charge more. May be time for us to consider other cruise lines in the future. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

backsbanny Posted October 11, 2023 #6 Share Posted October 11, 2023 I cant believe all the cutbacks that NCL has done. I cant believe that my once most beloved cruiseline has changed so much. I cant believe that i have booked 7 future cruises and none is on NCL. I always loved NCL but currently NCL is the worst value for money unfortunately. I really wish in the future to once again board on one of my most beloved ships just like the Bliss, Getaway, Pearl and so more. Currently the only thing that resembles the good old NCL is just the hull paint unfortunately… 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare www3traveler Posted October 11, 2023 #9 Share Posted October 11, 2023 Read your notice more carefully: It says to go to the "ticket office on Deck 6"-- NO SUCH PLACE!! The THEATER BOX is on Deck 7 Something is wrong somewhere and you are being given the wrong information. I would take this letter on board with you and take it to the Box Office.

As a couple that drinks heavily on a cruise, loves specialty restaurants, and are pretty much happy with any entertainment, no other line comes remotely close to the value for the money that NCL does. In our opinion, of course. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

backsbanny Posted October 11, 2023 #14 Share Posted October 11, 2023 Have you check Holland America have it all promos? They give you specialty dining there as well.Check also all included on celebrity, they will not give specialty dining but their beverage package is great, covering even coffees, bottle of water etc. For me the best value of NCL is their good latitudes offerings for platinum and above. I always enjoyed their 2 free specialty dinners. I love Cagneys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Liljo22 Posted October 11, 2023 #15 Share Posted October 11, 2023 Or hear me out.....it could be the current performer contract ending and the new performers not ready. Choir of Man was not on the list of cuts. Why wouldn't it have been on this list if it was going to be cut before the others on the list ended. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got every possible early perk you can get. A bit better than NCL, but at twice the price. [ok, that's a bit of hyperbole, but it is far more expensive per day than a comparable NCL cruise] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

durberville Posted October 11, 2023 #19 Share Posted October 11, 2023 These are the 2 last cruises of NCL Alaskan schedule. Probably something to do with that. (Contracts). I doubt they are cancelling the show on other sailings…. I’m still bummed. Music here and there in small spaces and game shows sure don’t make up for losing a big production show in the theatre. 😤 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schmoopie17 Posted October 11, 2023 #20 Share Posted October 11, 2023 We're bringing friends who have never cruised before on our Escape cruise next year. We specifically told them about this show, so they better have it. Where else can we get free beer? Oh, wait... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaworskym Posted October 11, 2023 #22 Share Posted October 11, 2023 I got the same email for 22 Oct. Did a little digging on Facebook and saw the cast of COM gave their last performance on the Encore 4 days ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InfrequentPNWCruiser Posted October 12, 2023 #24 Share Posted October 12, 2023 I was on the 10/1 to 10/8 Encore sailing. We were at the Friday 10/6 Choir of Man show and at the end , one of the cast members yelled out that this night was the last night that they were going to be there. Thought originally they meant for that sailing but it sounded more final, so it appears that they may not be back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
