Hi everyone!  Thought I'd post this to see if anyone else might be onboard (or considering it).  We've got a group of 4 from Palm Springs.  Some of us have done 3 or 4 Alaska trips in the past so if you have any questions let us know! 

Hello there everyone!  

I'm excited to go on my first Holiday Season sailing this year!  We will be onboard the Bliss from Long Beach to the Mexican Rivera - anyone else going to be onboard & at the Friends of Dorothy Meet ups? 

We know of 2 other cruisers who will be on board.  We met them last month on an Alaskan trip & they booked this cruise onboard.  Photo below from our recent trip on the NCL Encore .

Hello everyone! 

Very excited to be hitting the waters again soon.  Anyone joining us on the August 28th trip on the Encore out of Seattle? 

Hello everyone! My partner and I are excited to be joining some of our extended family on a little getaway this summer to the Mexican Rivera & wanted to see if any other "family" might be on board.

Little about us - we're newish to California & live in Palm Springs. I'm Will - 33 & partner is Justin 40, we'll be joining my aunt and uncle/2 cousins from the Bay area.

Hope to find some other LGBT folks on board!

Great review! We're headed out on the Gem in a few weeks & can't wait for the thermal spa, I had a very similar discovery process on my first NCL last year.

No problem! Have a blast! I heard great things about that itinerary from some of the folks we met in Alaska!

How would you rate the classes? I normally take Flywheel or Peloton classes so I'd love to take some during my upcoming cruise but dont' want to spend the extra money if it's not a good class.

I wish NCL had the Flywheel studios like Royal Caribbean does, that way I know what I'm getting.

I can't answer all of your questions.. but I can answer a few!

1 - I was in Alaska, so there wasn't any concern of it being hot for me.

2 - We didn't have any issues with folks doing this, one of the things that is nice is the group is the same everyday.. so you can start to make friends in there & people are respectful because they know they have to see you tomorrow, the next day, and etc.

3 - I think it was open from about 7am - 8 or 9pm I can't remember the exact time, but I know we were in there one night and it was quite dark.

It was a great experience and worth every penny!

I totally agree with most folks on here.. Book it! It was great, one of my favorite parts of the cruise.
