NCLH Laid off all the Ship and Land IT depts
schmoopie17 replied to SRQMom's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
Actually, I'm a steerage kind of guy. Plus, I'm too frugal/cheap/miserly to do the Haven. As I've said before, the whole ship is going to the same places. No need to spend more than is necessary to get there. -

Oh, no...the horror! When NCL goes under/bankrupt, what will become of the CC NCL page? There goes my social life.- 78 replies

We're Cheeseheads...but we're not too picky. As long as there is cheese of any kind, we're generally good with it.

EIGHT YEARS between shipyard visits? Is Norwegian Jade due?
schmoopie17 replied to dmwnc1959's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
We were on the Jade in February and we tried to leave it nice and clean for you. We loved the Jade, probably more than any other NCL ship we've been on. Take the ashtrays out of the bathrooms and the "No smoking in bed" signs and it's close to perfection. Oh yeah, de-smoke the casino and it would be even closer to perfection. -
Entertainment - what actually happened

I'm just hoping they don't pull the plug on it on the Escape before September. -

We have neighbors from Croatia. They always talk about how beautiful it is and that we really need to go. After seeing your pictures, I feel like I need to Split and get there ASAP. -

Debating on which Itinerary (Panama Canal)

Actually, for us, it will be a twice in a lifetime experience. 😜 See you on board... -
2026 NCL Cruise Critic cruise (proposed)
schmoopie17 replied to schmoopie17's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
I agree. We've gotten off track a bit. Music is nice, but it's not even close to the top reason we cruise. I like the idea of @cruiseny4lifeto compile serious (or even semi-serious) folks to get the ball rolling. Of course, finding a cruise/ship/itinerary/length/departure port, etc., that the majority would like could be a daunting task. But it's been done before... -

Now you've done it. Created serious Deja Vu (not the Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young kind) with this picture. When on the Jade in February, we parked our butts on the two end seats (by the green part of the bar) every night at 4:15 for 14 nights. Our favorite bartender would have our drinks (Cosmo with a lime and Bulliet on the rocks) practically waiting for us. Yes, I know it's a different ship, but the layouts are identical...especially in Bar City. Great memories... -
2026 NCL Cruise Critic cruise (proposed)
schmoopie17 replied to schmoopie17's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
It would probably be our last NCL cruise. We're doing NCL for the Mediterranean in a couple of months and the Panama Canal in 2015. We would like to try other cruise lines to spread our wings, as it were. -

I believe it was actually chocolate, rather then espresso. But chocolate martinis also have an upcharge. She asked the bartender how much extra it would be. He said something to the effect of, "Don't worry about it." She put her card on the bar, he brought the drink, and walked away. After she finished it, he came back and said, "I see you liked it. Want a refill?" Naturally, being the chocolate lover she is, she said yes. She kept her card in plain sight, he brought the refill, set it down and walked away. Just one of the benefits of tipping your bartenders well, I guess. -

Sure you can. Mrs. Schmoopie had a couple of them courtesy of our favorite bartender.
