dexddd Posted March 9 #2 Share Posted March 9 How has indulge seating been? Nice enough to sit outside? Did the ship have an anchor up front on deck? Viva has one bit Prima looks like it is missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Texas Realtor Posted March 9 Author #3 Share Posted March 9 surprisingly I have not been to indulge yet. No Achor. Definately nice enough to be outside. A little windy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ontheweb Posted March 9 #4 Share Posted March 9 Is the Donna Summer show back? If not, have they submitted something for it? Is there a lifeguard? On our cruise this summer there was one, the first I had ever seen on a cruise ship. The rules still did read that there was no lifeguard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mking8288 Posted March 9 #17 Share Posted March 9 TIA and enjoy your cruise ... fellow cruisers on next month's Prima roll call wished to know (should you have time to explore and find out) how is the digital library collection (using the free Libby App) and does it have a good variety for access. How's the MDR dinner reservation and seating working out onboard, is there a longer than usual wait to get seat (next month, we cannot pre-book MDR dinner for parties of 5 or less, only 6 or more can be reserved in advance) and if they are separating passengers with reservation and the rest (walk-ups) If you can, near Guest Services - Deck 7 Mid/Fwd is a TV display, showing the ship's management team, including the Captain, Staff Capt, General Manager, Chef, CruiseNext, Head of Housekeeping and other "department" heads currently onboard. Kindly post that information (take several photos & upload them to post here will work great) - thanks. Any whisper from the CruiseNext team about upcoming promotions and specials, best book onboard now "deals" that's not available routinely as "sales". Ship's navigational channel is slick but were showing very limited information last November when we're onboard, i.e. missing "live" data about air temperature, wind, sea state, ETA arrival to next port (distance to/from traveled between ports - not consistently shown) ... asked & were told NCL is in the process of upgrading the systems. Can you comment on that, thanks. Appreciate efforts in taking out during your cruise vacation to post and answer questions to help others "stranded" at home and/or on land.

I heard others talking about it and I think it is going to happen. I will let you know. The fantastic host and his wife mentioned during our show last week that this was the end of their contract. He was so "game show host" that we said they'd have a hard time finding someone as good! Guess they didn't 😞 . It was a fun hour. Set pieces are identical to the show. Very good production value.

Rare Texas Realtor Posted March 9 Author #23 Share Posted March 9 So far no issues with gettin seated for dining. We have 9 and were seated as soon as we were ready in Commodores last night. Food was great. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martink45 Posted March 9 #24 Share Posted March 9 We were there last week and was disappointed that Summer was NOT performed. However, the shows, especially Rumors, in Sid Normans were really good. Did not see any cookies. Cagneys was ok but not quite up to our standards of home or Capital Grill or Ruth's Chris. I think keeping meat for a week and having to cook for so many folks is probably a very difficult task. Le Bistro was best meal for the week. Indulge can get very busy right around noon, especially on sea days. Enjoy!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
