FYI, because I would have appreciated this feedback.

We were scheduled to cruise on the NCL Jade leaving Amsterdam on June 27, returning July 12.

I received full refund to my cc today, less insurance.  The insurance will be transferred to any vacation we take until COB 2021.

Much quicker than I expected.

Good luck.

I have heard from other sites that they travel the Baltic recently with US $1 bills that are accepted for small purchases, tips & can be exchanged for local currency re WC entry, etc.

Comments please for 4 older cruisers as a plan for Stockholm:  Take a trip on HOHO from dock at about 9AM, getting off at the VASA museum.  Then take ferry to the Gamia Stan for a walk around & maybe lunch before taking a taxi back to the dock.  Our NCL cruise leaves Stockholm at 4PM.  We realise that we can't "see everything" & are not interested in a death march.  We are not too concerns about reasonable costs........guys, if you spend all this money for a cabin, a hundred dollars or so to move four people to see such a beautiful city as Stockholm is not asking too much to us.

Thanks in advance for your input.

Thanks for the heads up re the individual ports.  I will put this on my "to do" list to check after the first of the year.  I also noticed that NCL has multiple ships doing the Ultimate Baltic cruise, so I will have to do some homework.

Thanks again for the help.

We will be taking the NCL Jade on the Ultimate Baltic cruise in 2020.  Does anyone have an idea re which specific locations the Jade will dock at for their ports of call.  I keep reading posts with the comments that "if you dock here, you can walk to the city center, but if you dock there you have to take a bus", etc.  For planning purposes it would be nice to know specifics in advance.  I've looked on the NCL web but could not find this info.  Hoping someone who has taken this cruise can help or point me in the right direction.

Thanks for the help.
