Spend a minute on the phone when they call and you might get a better price. I did. 10%

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the app is free on the ship. No fees and it shows you everything about your cruise. Texting is not included for free. IMessaging is a different story of course.

Thank you. That makes sense, but is disappointing! Ship looks to be beyond full.

Thanks. I'm still seeing this on my screen. 20 days till cruise. Blazing Boots Imagine yourself bellying up to the the best country bar at sea. You are all invited to Blazing Boots - a first class tribute to pop country showcasing songs f ... Complimentary Reservations are not offered.

So we can't reserve shows anymore online? Only once onboard or not at all? Thanks.

With a 7 year old take the Balcony! After 10 pm you have to pay for kids clubs. Not much on the TV. Unless You will be going to bed after kids clubs closes then the Balcony is perfect for the reasons others have posted.

Yes crazy cruise prices. It is a 10 year, but a bottle here is around $80.

A double of Whistle Pig Is $84.00 as are some of the others. I believe XO was $120.00 if I remember correctly. Just a couple of those pays for the whole week.😎

Taxes and fees change with the ports and you don't have to take free at sea.

They had the same promo back 2018 when you were on the Dawn? Tips were a little less back then.

Was the ship sold out? That makes a huge difference.

Le Bistro for sure. Just don't sit us outside the Restaurant!

Thanks! Just bought 2.

Great Lounge with great service! Tip well and they will remember you all week! Enjoy!

What tricks please?

I have noticed that Incognito will show taxes and some travel sites that take you NCL. It is a pain. Just show IT!

Thank you everyone for the info and tips. I did see everyone's posts on the making sure you book the right category. We have almost always booked a BB or BA. Our upcoming cruise a Balcony room was $1,200.00 more then OV. Was going to bid, but it is selling out fast! We did get a 10% discount so it was around maybe $900 more. This card would have been nice a month ago. These are the terms that confused me! Terms & Conditions: Offer may be used by individuals, participants in qualified group bookings, by single guests and for use with 3rd and 4th guest bookings. This is a cruise only offer. Offer applies to individual bookings and based on double occupancy. Thanks again everyone.

Just signed up. Should have a few years ago! Question. The room upgrade for 30,000 points. Is that per person? The first 2 and then 30k for a third person? For a total of 60k for 3 people in one room? Thank you. Been reading some many pages and could not find the answer.

Ok let me post this so everyone can understand. We showed up and they said she couldn't go in! We had a reservation! She was embarrassed and felt bad. She is a smart, beautiful teenager and a little shy. She did NOT go to the buffet.! She came in with us after a 5 second phone call. It is not about the money! She simply in no way could eat that much food. In the French Restaurant she had the Lobster Thermidor for about $59.00

Once in 5 cruises my daughter sailed free, plus taxes and port fees and DSC. This cruise it was around $800.00 plus the DSC at the end. In the 15 or so times we have been to specialties your saying they didn't follow protocol? Again just trying to help other families for this change in ONE specialty Restaurant.

Read and learn. Every dinner location has a kids menu. Parents can order off the kids menu! Sounds like some of you have never offered your family a bite of something? OK SURE! For those that think we stole something from NCL good for you. We have stayed in the Haven 3 times and have paid our fair share!

I love the comments. So my daughter gets on the ship as a child! She cost only $200 less then us to cruise on said ship. She gets none of the free meals, internet or $50 shore excursion money! If you READ what I posted, she WAS NOT giving a hard time at 3 other Upgraded Restaurants! Not sure how your family shows up at a specialty reservation? The 3 of us showed up TOGETHER! She was told she could not enter unless we paid $70! A 15 year old girl that is about 100 pounds can't even come close to eating that much food. For those that can eat 3 meals at Teppanyaki by yourself, good for you? NO ONE at our table finished their meal or the table across from us. I guess you think this was our first cruise? 5th NCL, 5th time at Teppanyaki! No charge last year or the 2 years before that. I was trying to help other family's with future plans. You can judge all you want!

So on 4 NCL cruises and always having our daughter join us and share without issue until last week. Last week on the Escape we were told out 15 year old COULD NOT eat off the kids menu and it would cost $70 for her to join us. We explained that she had joined us in 3 other Specialties without issue that week. They said 10 and under for kids menu???? A quick phone call and My Daughter almost crying and saying she would just go to the Buffet they said ok. She orders a Burger and watches the show. End of meal server bring 2 bills. One for $0.00, the wife and myself. One $70 and change for my Daughters Burger?! A very calm talk with the Manager had the bill removed. She said back in October the change was made, but of course NO ONE was told about it. She said if we had talked to her first then My Daughter could have ordered her meal at no charge. I will tell you 3 full meals could feed 5 people without issue. Food was great, show was awesome as always! Did miss the Tenderloin and for $70 is a CRIME! No salad this time, it was coleslaw? Strange indeed!

That's what was missing last week on the Escape! Well I had more Potato's and Veggies instead I guess.

So we drank 14 bottles of Aqua Panna. Bottle of Veuve every night with dinner. Every high end spirit I could get. No Blue on the Escape that I could find. Not in the Haven this time though. Funny Hennessy XO was $50 per. A double with tip would have been $120.00. CRAZY! Macallan, Whistle Pig, Blantons were all flowing at some bars. Best rum drinks ever!!!!!!!!!!!! We got our moneys worth for sure. Could we have done without? YES! Regrets? NO! OH with room service charges now we made 2 trips a day to Starbucks. I don't visit them at home, but on the ship for FREE!
