Ever been on a cruise out of the Med? Southern Europeans are notorious for cutting in lines. These trips also attract a fair amount of Asians and in their culture it's an endearing quality to push people aside when trying to get someplace.
Say what you want about Americans but no doubt we're still the most patient and polite people, for the most part, on earth.

I highly recommend the Foodie Walking Tour.
Reykjavik Food Walk - Local Foodie Adventure in Iceland 2024 (viator.com)
It's a great way to see the City and learn about some of its history. And of course, tasty food.
There's a shuttle bus that runs between the cruise port and the Harpa Concert Hall where the tour begins. Great fun.

I took the Escape out of NYC last September to Maine and Canada for 7 nights. Literally days before departing NCL posts an updated itinerary which ADDED a stop in Newport. Personally, I loved the change and enjoyed that port. I did meet some people who were pretty upset about losing a sea day.
Common thread is zero explanation from NCL for the change in plans. That's just how they roll. Or sail).

Calm seas scare me. I need some motion. Sleep better as well.

I'm a solo traveler with a flexible schedule. I'm interested in booking an Alaskan sail this summer. My big requirement is securing a balcony cabin. I'm wondering if anyone on here has had any luck with last minute bookings to Alaska in terms of significant cost savings and cabin choice. TIA.

None of the ships sailing out of Tampa will have the Solo Studio cabins as newer ships can't fit under the Skyway Bridge.
As was mentioned earlier, NCL has new pricing on all cabins for solo travelers.
-
I'd mention to the tour guide your schedule to get on board. Just to be safe.

Internet on board no matter what upgrade is pretty useless other than downloading emails without attachments.

I just had my 1st Studio cabin experience on the Prima with one coming up on the Escape.
The space is very well laid out with a good size bed. I never slept so well.
I enjoyed having the lounge down the hall for morning coffee and some sweets at night.
As mentioned earlier, NCL has a Solo meet every afternoon at 5 ( i really think they should make it a bit later) but it is a great way to meet new people and open to all class cabins. I highly endorse the Studio Cabin.

I was on Prima June 15th, Iceland to Southampton. I've been fortunate enough to cruise itineraries from Mexico to St Petersburg with several cruise lines and my voyage on the Prima rated among the best trips I've ever been on.
The interior of the ship is stunning, the crew couldn't be more helpful and Indulge is an amazing and well executed food concept.
Booking a cabin directly underneath any major gathering place or venue gets little sympathy.
Lesson learned is always check the deck plan.

Is there a fee to buy chips with your Sail Card on NCL?

Just booked the NCL Prima, Studio Room from Reykjavik June 15th 10 nights, Iceland, Norway, Amsterdam , Bruges ending in South Hampton. I will add a few nights in London.
I've never stayed in a Studio before and can't wait.

Just back from the Paradise. The buffet was one step above prison food.
-
Do they allow passengers to bring snacks on board? Nuts, chips, dates etc.?

Perhaps if we understood how you wish to use the internet, we could better advise you on which plan would be best for your needs/desires.
Send and receive emails. No big attachments, video etc.

I'd appreciate any advice/feedback on the Wi-Fi plans offered on Carnival. Is there much difference between basic and premium option? I'm looking for, hopefully, reliable service to send and receive emails. TIA.

do they require proof of positive test to get refund?

I'm considering trans Atlantic to UK . Anyone here do this solo and what can you tell me about the experience? TIA

Has the casino been removed? Can't seem to find it on the deck plan.

Any of the ships have Craps?

I've never sailed on HAL. Do all their casinos have Craps?

Does anyone know CCL's current policy, if you miss embarkation, can you even board the ship at another port? As I stated, since Covid, X doesn't allow you to. If you miss embarkation you miss your entire vacation.
There are no other ports. LOL
