2026 NCL Cruise Critic cruise (proposed)
schmoopie17 replied to schmoopie17's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
Eagerly awaiting the release of their newest ship in the Dishwater Class, the Palmolive. -

They can try to Getaway from the ribbing, but won't succeed. We, on the other hand, will be joyfully joyful on the Joy. I just realized that NCL has two ships named after dish detergents. -
We always book our specialty restaurants as soon as the window opens up, As for MDR reservations, we've never made one. We always show up at the dining room when we're ready and we've never waited more than a couple of minutes (if that). Usually walk right in.

New Orleans will be a madhouse when they debark, with the Super Bowl on February 9th. But I guess I can understand, since my Packers will be playing in it. -

Having a job is overrated. (Coming from someone who has been retired since 2015)... Seriously, I'm bummed about not meeting you on this cruise. But there's always 2026... -

If NCL comes out with a 2026 itinerary with Kotor, Corfu, Split, Dubrovnik, et al, we may be first in line. -
We were on the Escape for a TA a in 2022 and are back on her again in less than three months. Needless to say, we like that ship.

Well, the cruise that @cruiseny4lifeand hubby have booked is not yet within final payment. Maybe a little arm-twisting might be in order. -

So...if I'm not mistaken (highly unlikely, I know) it looks like we're close to locking in the Feb 6, 2025 Joy cruise through the Panama Canal for Schmoopiefest? As noted, we booked this a while ago, hotel and plane reservations already made. For those who can't make this one, we could also plan Schmoopiefest 2026, as well. -

It would definitely be a cruise. -

To be honest (or as the kids say...TBH), this would be ideal for us. Mrs. Schmoopie has her heart set on going to Croatia in 2026, so if everyone could work it out to do this one in 2025... -

Feb 5-21. From LA to Miami. We also did Miami to LA in 2019. -

MSP is a long way away. We're in the southeast. We typically fly out of ORD...we hate that airport but they have better choices and lower prices than MKE. -

We're booked on the Joy next February for a Panama Canal cruise. If anyone wants to push the date from 2026 to 2025, that would be an option. Although, it's 15 days, so probably not too many takers. -

You're not getting off that easy. Looks like we need to stick with NCL to get the lowdown on your fabulous self. -

110 degrees is child's play. Try golfing in 116 degrees. Been there, done that. Will not ever do it again, especially since I suck at golf. (But, as they say, it's a dry heat). -

We don't necessarily need to focus on NCL if other options arise. Although it would be nice to utilize my 10% Veterans discount...as well as our newly arrived at Platinum status to score those awesome chocolate-covered strawberry halves. -

Hoping you end up joining. I used to live in Paradise Valley (as well as other AZ locations) and would enjoy exchanging summer desert survival stories. -

As per usual, I have nothing important to say. Just bumping this thread back to page one to give @cruiseny4life and his spreadsheet more exposure. Truthfully, we may have already maxed out. But that's okay. We have the makings of a fun group. -
NCLH Laid off all the Ship and Land IT depts

If NCL is going under/out of business, someone better tell the stock market. Stock is up over five percent today.
