We always by liquor on our last night to use up our OBC.

In Joy Haven this past February and had umbrella and no binoculars. There was also an umbrella in our non-Haven Suite a few weeks ago also on the Joy.

Agreed! We are one and done for that time period. We were on the Escape during their first NYE sailing.

Great! Thank you. I am going to book it today.

Thank you, again, for your information.

Did you take the first morning train or the later train that NCL promotes?

Another question: I know this change goes into effect January 1, 2023, but if you booked a cruise before the price increase but sail after January 1st, do you still get the water?

So if you have two in the cabin taking the PBP, the free six pack of water comes out to $28? Or do you get two six packs?

Thank you very much for the detailed information it is very much appreciated. I just want to confirm that on the morning train, our luggage would be checked in and then will end up in our cabin.

Per person or per cabin?

Thank you! All of the websites were getting me confused as I am always leery of fake websites. We will definitely spring for Goldstar and I will look into the Kenai Fjord wildlife tour.

Thank you for suggesting the earlier train. Thank you for suggesting the earlier train which we are going to do. I just want to make sure I am using the right booking site, Alaskarail.com. I see that there are another sites Alaskatrain.com, Alaskarailroad.com or Alaskatours.com. but I believe they are vendors. Also, if we take the earlier train, the luggage will definitely be tagged for our cruise as I see NCL offers the later train.

Wonderful news! Thanks, as always, for the update.

I could be mistaken, but I believe Haven goes first, then people with physical disabilities. When we last traveled with my dad, we had to wait until after Haven boarded.

At first, I did not think I would like the idea of the same menu every night, but after seeing the menu, I do like it better. For us, there are good options (dessert could be better). In the past, I always had to research what nights we wanted to eat in the MDR based on the menu. When we stayed in the Haven this past February, we ate there four times, and I got the same meal three times.

Thank you!

How much is it if you get permission to invite a non-Haven guest to join you for diner in the Haven?

I thought the same thing when we boarded the Joy two weeks ago. They also used that parking for the overflow then.

As always, looking forward to following your cruise. Have an wonderful time!

Just wanted to say welcome back to the NCL boards!!! Since we were interested in a Celebrity cruise a while ago, I have kept up with you there.

Do they show up where the CruiseNext certificates show up?

We just opened the link they sent about ten minutes before the appointment time and then the proctor came on on-time . The proctor emailed us our official results immediately. The whole process took no more than 15 minutes.

Agree with above responses---we have used them twice and it was very, very easy. I was worried the first time and had our young adult son on hand just in case we needed help to figure it out when the testing time came. Then when we used them again a few weeks ago, I felt confident my husband and I could do it on our own.

Just got off the Joy last Tuesday and we stayed in a penthouse suite. The only significant difference is the cabin size. Not all embarkation ports recognize the priority check-in and embarkation you are suppose to receive. If you want a much bigger cabin and balcony, then it is worth it. If that is not important to you, then stick with the club balcony suite.

The Joy had coke products on our sailing last week. Really enjoyed my rum and diet coke.
