Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Thanks blue_water, our NCL ship arrives in Tortola at 8:00 am. I'm not sure if I can make the 8:30 am outbound Sensations ferry time. I even thought about taking the outbound Speedy's at 9:00 am, and the return Sensations ferry at 1:45 pm. The times would be perfect, but now I'm scared about taking two different ferries, and if it would complicate my journey. I decided to just bite the bullet and buy the NCL ship excursion. Thanks for your help.
  2. Thank you, I decided to book the NCL excursion for the same reason. Unfortunately this cost our family of four $376, compared to DIY which would have cost $172. Would have been nice to save the $200 but the ferry times just didn't work for me.
  3. I'd like to try to DIY the Baths excursion, however when I look at Speedy's ferry schedule, the last two return ferries from Virgin Gorda are at 11:30 am and 3:30 pm. My NCL all aboard time is 4:30 pm so the 3:30 pm ferry is too close for my comfort, yet the 11:30 am is too early. Seems like they should have something in the middle like 2:00 pm. Does anybody know if there are any return ferry options around 2:00 pm?
  4. Perhaps, but the air travel chaos is now, but they wait until 2023 to enforce it. Also, why would the current terms and conditions state $25 pp when they are actually charging $100pp. See here: https://www.ncl.com/about/terms-and-conditions/promotions
  5. A bit of a shocker today. I booked 2 cabins for our family of 4 on a cruise departing from Athens Greece in May 2023. Used the 2 for 1 airfare promo and saved a ton of money on flights. However the travel agent informed me that NCL charges a fee to guarantee that both cabins will be on the same flights. This is officially called the "Travel With Guarantee" program and the cost is increasing from $25 pp to $100 pp for 2023 cruises. Really, a $400 fee to guarantee my me, my wife, and 2 kids will be on the same flight? Normally I wouldn't mind but this is a flight from Kansas USA to Athens, Greece. I expect 20 hours of travel and 3 flights to get there. Buyer beware of this $400 penalty. First time trying NCL after many cruises on Royal Caribbean and Disney. Not off to a good start here. This is kind of a bait and switch as, the terms on the NCL website says the fee is only $25.
