So I will ask again, where does it say on any NCL ship to throw your towels on the floor. Did you even read what you posted? Many say in that opinion post you posted they consider this rude to the house keeper. I have NEVER seen a sign on a NCL ship nor in any hotel. I do know the old urban legend that clearly its a sign you want new towels to leave them on the floor. However every time I have cruise fresh towels are always replaced and don't do this. There was a sign in my balcony cabin on the Epic in January 2024 that said something to the effect of hang up towels to reuse, put on floor to be exchanged. Similar signage has been in every hotel I have stayed in over the last 5 years. Edited March 29 by zqvol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I just stay in dumpy hotels, but I have always stayed in hotels that had a sign to dump used towels on the floor if I wanted new ones. To me, it's just a normal and customary thing to do. On Norwegian, I've had stateroom attendants tell me to put them on the floor if I want a new one. I don't recall a sign or lack of a sign. I am pretty sure there is a sign...you know, save the environment, re-use the towel, but if you want a new towel, throw it in a heap on the floor. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we ran out of towels and she was unphased by it. Since you're back in the thread, would you be willing to post your cabin #? I like to be prepared.

Standard for a decade, sign or not. If you want towels replaced, put them on the floor. If they're hanging on the rack, they will stay there.

LatinaInTexas Posted March 29 #32 Share Posted March 29 Will be on the Encore first time in May. How were the wait times to be seated at the MDR? Last cruise I reserved some dining times because we like to eat at a certain time. This time there is no option to book dining times in any of the dining rooms.

From experience, book MDR for the first night, for sure. It's a cluster. We didn't have more than a 5 to 10-minute wait at the MDR's after the first night. Also, if reservations aren't available online, use chat, or call. You will get them. Edited March 29 by IAcruising 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we were on the Encore last month, we also were not able to make MDR reservations before the cruise. Once on board, we were able to make them immediately. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just basically kept telling me to do it when I get onboard🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
