How soon can I expect airline tickets?

We are purchasing our airfare through NCL, and just wondered how soon before the cruise they get your airline schedule to you.

Generally they don't assign the flights until about 30 days prior to the cruise. You may not get them until 2 weeks before you leave.:eek:

That makes advance planning a little tricky,doesn't it...the sad thing is that we've been wrangling with NCL over these tickets now for two weeks. They quoted us one price but billed our credit card $1875 more than what they quoted! I called every day until they fixed it. That just showed up yesterday.

 

Thanks for the info.

Keep calling -the sooner you get your flight info the sooner you can go online or call for seats. If you don't do it in advance you could be all over the plane at check in.

I guess it depends on the cruise. We are on NCLA Pride of Hawaii in July, and got our airline info today, two months and one day before sail date. Good luck!

NCL is usually around 30 days, and NCLA is usually around 60 days.
