Looking at the Entourage daily schedule from Last June (Bos - Bermuda in Bermuda Sun - Tues):

Sunday arrival in BDA 10:00 am Entourage opened at 7:00 pm ( Air Hockey at 7:00 / Arts & Crafts 8:00).

Closed 9:00 - 10:00 pm

10:00 pm - Prank Hour 

11:00  pm - neon Ping Pong Tournament

Monday Opened at 7:00 pm closed 9:00 - 10:00 pm - reopened at 10:00 pm. 

Tuesday Departure 4:30 pm from BDA

Entourage opened at 3:30 pm

Closed 6:30 - 9:30 pm

Reopened 9:30 pm

Hope this example helps.

I just don't like the pass-through corridors / pathways blocked by the stop, look, listen, folks. 

I prefer to tip with rolls of pennies... so the recipient feels the gravity of the gift.

Our TA pulls it a week or so before final payment date ... in case there is a credit card issue they can follow up with us.

Bigger Trash receptacles and steward hallway patrols are going to be needed.  With three or more in a cabin the trash receptacles are not currently big enough in cabins to sustain 23 hours of debris. So folks are going to put full trash receptacles and cups, plates, saucers, etc. in the hallways...

With a tour starting at 7:45, your tickets delivered to your cabin will probably say meet at 7:30 on the Pier; likewise your snorkel excursion will say meet on the pier at 8:30 or 8:45.

Back to the OP: We got the email as well.  Now if NCL would only (timely) notify us that Grand Turk and St Maarten have been cancelled from our February 17th cruise...  that would be great. Maybe they are waiting to cancel Puerto Plata on us too... That way they can be environmentally sensitive by only sending one email...

The bio bay luminescent kayak tour from San Juan is pretty good. 

YOU should fly in early and tell your husband ... you hope to see him onboard.

Just saw a person being removed by stretcher to an ambulance from what appears to be an NCL ship docked in Bermuda this morning.  Any idea why?

I heard it had something to do with port fees.

I'm way confused now....so they are allowing me to buy Two (250) deposits and apply them to one cruise onboard. So I give them my CC for a $500 charge. ---They then give me what? It states I get $250 in onboard credit. 

Does that mean I can use that 250 credit and only pay 250 on my CC for the deposits? 

yes.

Yes, they do.  But it's a single lane, and they can only push the snow to the end of the pier. What can happen (if it snow while you are away) is a ridge of snow is formed on either side of the plow path. When the snow freezes and thaws it can create a hard frozen ridge you need to either clear (with a shovel with a metal edge) or back over it (and hope you have clearance). Port staff sands / salts the spiral road way up to the parking deck. I could have made a lot of money shoveling folks out years ago... but wanted to get home. By the way, for fourteen cruises in February from NYC this has only happened to us once.

Problem solved: It was a new waiter... His name was Frank, Frank something.... oh yeh... Frank Del Rio... j/k.

Beef Tenderloin.

It looks like they took the slots out of Bliss Lounge.

FIrst: Washy Washy, Happy Happy.

Thanks for updating us on the dry dock. Between the lack of cabin updates and changes to our itinerary (Feb 17 - 27, 2023). I'm kind of meh about our upcoming cruise on the Gem.

I would estimate that we stepped into water two feet deep on our last NCL excursion to JVD

Thank you all for the menu and photos.

I think there is an email address out there (LatClerical @ ncl or something) to faciliate transfers without calling

We booked onboard June 30 and received 10% off... Had the reservation transferred to our TA and he is giving us OBC... and used the NCL MasterCard... 

Alaskan cruise roll calls are generally slower.

I believe for Bermuda it is $50 per day. 

Glad you made the ship.
