Try laundry sheets! I started using them at home since they were more eco-friendly and they would be great for longer trips, since they are solids and very compact. I use Earth Breeze but there are others out there. I've done quite a few long (3+ weeks) trips where a lot of bag schlepping is required and having just a carry on and personal item is much easier.

Princess has washing machines on a lot of their ships. I did a little over two weeks with a 21" and a personal item. PM 🙂

Nice review, thanks! I am curious about the typical hours of the YC pool and sun deck. Is it possible to use a hot tub in the evening? PM

Thanks! I'm following - I'm a first time MSC and YC solo in January. PM

I have two (lace up) pair. They are comfortable, good support, and fine for my wide forefoot. My canvas ones develop a funny squeak, but the suede don't seem to have that. I still like their look, though. PM

Hi, I am new to MSC and did the status match using my NCL Status. That gave me Gold status. I usually use a travel agent. Will the agent be able apply the 5% reduction for past passengers? I see it on the MSC Website, but not when I check with an agent's website. I will get them on the phone to set up everything anyhow. Thanks for any help, PM

Dawn had the L'Occitane in the suites as well. While returning to my cabin one day I saw the stewards had huge bottles of the products on the carts for refills. We were in a two-bedroom and I actually thought the body lotion was really nice. Contractually speaking, putting something other than the specified brand of product in the bottles would be very bad for NCL. L'Occitane would not want its brand degraded. PM

It was quiet most of the time, though we had only 1300-1400 on our cruise. It may pick up during tasting events. They have the wine menu on iPads, which I assume are kept current.

We were regulars at The Cellars on Dawn. Castello Banfi Brunello was our go to. And Veuve of course.

We used FCC to book a cruise but will have some largish (like 2k) amount left over. Cruising again isn't really an option due to lack of vacation days. NCL's site says we can use this for shore excursions. Do we call NCL to do this or use our TA? We haven't finalized the cruise just yet, but we are just 75 days out. Or has anyone had this remainder refunded? We have been cancelled 3 times before this. I have really tried in good faith to use this, but it is not working out. Thanks, PM
