Ok. My next NCL cruise is from Panama so I will make a note on how priority check in works for me.

Thanks

I have NEVER been able to purchase a fishbowl or bucket of beer if I had CHEERS. I know other people have been able to, but not me. I did have a wonderful poolside server though who would always come back around with a huge “shot” of Tito’s to add to my Tito’s and cranberry. I have also been able to purchase a round of shots in the souvenir shot glasses during dinner in the MDR. I think they might be more lenient if they see you’re with a group?

That was my question. Substitute $24 for $22.

The beverage package does not include beverages delivered to your room. You would have to purchase any setup for the room.

Yes, I definitely hope to return the favor. I have had some wonderful dinners courtesy of some very gracious Platinum and above cruisers. Great. I wasn't sure if I had to wait around for them to call platinum again. Good to know I can just get in the line of whatever numbered group is boarding.

So I must be a real outlier in that I rarely use my FAS meal vouchers.

I don't like scotch. But someone told me there are unpeated scotches that I might like. Do you know if Carnival carries any unpeated ones or would they be over $20 ones anyway?

I guess I won’t be spending time in the casino.

I have to spend more time checking out the buffet. I think I only ate breakfast there.

They want anyone who is feeling sick to visit the medical center and be tested for COVID. That's my guess.

Now I am so curious. New item on my list.

I'm laughing now because I'm like "do you see where I live??" But then I'm like well, I have never had the sticks from the diner. So maybe ....

How many sticks? I can get 6 for $5.50 at most restaurants here.

I think the minimum for craps is $5. That's how much I bet. I've never played the other games.

LOL. That was going to be my next question. On my upcoming cruise, I was hoping to try some different and "higher" end whiskeys. So I was just curious. That 15 stands even if you don't have the drink package. But without the drink package you can get pitchers, fishbowls, buckets of beer, and doubles. I've never heard how those get counted.

The terms say that there is a 25% discount on drinks over $20. So if my drink is $24, I'd be charged $18 for it? I'm used to other lines where I would just have to pay the difference. CHEERS! INCLUDES: All spirits (including cocktails), as well as beer and wine by the glass with a $20.00 or lower menu price Sodas, Zero-Proof frozen cocktails, energy drinks, specialty coffee, hot tea, 500ml bottled water and other non-alcoholic bottled beverages Packaged water in the Dining Room and Specialty Restaurants 25% discount off the menu price for any spirit or wine by the glass above $20.00 25% discount off the menu price for wine and champagne by the bottle 25% discount off beverage seminars and classes

If I arrive after boarding has begun, will I be able to go right on?

Another fun fact. The P does noes not stand for privacy!

Hi all. I just turned platinum after my last cruise in November and will be cruising again in March on the Jewel. Can y'all give me tips on how to make the best use of my tier benefits? For instance, I remember reading about a strategy for when to use the latitude meal vouchers vs the FAS meal but I can't remember what it was. What would I use the concierge for? Thanks

Same 1 🙂

I guess I liked the Prima more than I thought. I just booked 2 cruises on the Viva 😂

I'm looking forward to following your review. I'm doing a PC cruise on the Jewel in March.

@Juncti @Sthrngary Thanks for your responses. My cruise is in March and I've decided I will go ahead and upgrade. One thing that I am excited to do is see if I can find any unpeated scotch to try 🙂 I'm also looking forward to experimenting with different wines.

I’m looking for advice. My next cruise is a 9 day Panama Canal cruise on the Jewel with 3 sea days. There maybe an additional port or 2 that I might stay on the ship for. I’m not terribly picky when it comes to brands. Tito’s, Jameson, and Patron suit me just fine. However I want try some higher end whiskeys and bourbons. Not scotch 🤢. Would it be worth it to upgrade to the plus package? My main concern is that there will be a lack of different ones to try. I can definitely make use of the aqua panna water and get grand marnier floaters in my margaritas and sip some champagne. But that would be stuff I’d be doing just to get my money’s worth.
