My cruise is today and I can still edit by bid. I thought they locked your bids a couple days before… I guess I was unlucky this time! 

Hoping to see some success posts for the OCT 31 spirit

I have a 24 hour layover for my upcoming cruise, they issued these flights 13 days before departure. They probably did it on purpose because i called so much haha

Make sure you have a change of clothes in your carry on- they may hold your luggage (I speak from experience).

A great tip, but seriously ... if they hold your luggage you have bigger problems than what you're going to wear.

I want to contact them about the 24 hour delay but im worried their resolution would be to put me on an 8hr  non-direct flight to LAX so i have a smaller layover between connecting flights

My question is where are you going that requires a layover in LAX. 

Oh! Papeete, its an NCL charter the following day at 1PM

Where are you flying to that there isn't a flight from LAX?  Call NCL, they should fix it, sounds like a mistake.  And for all the naysayers, they WILL correct their mistakes. Been there, done that.

Coming in from Toronto. There was a flight available same day with 3 hour layover and google has it priced at $1200, the current flight we have is $1400 on google flights. I know they probably get subsidized pricing but they are definitely some of the pricier options compared to $300-350 few weeks back...

Maybe it’s just time difference- if it is a 24 hour layover, hopefully it’s in a location that you can make the best of it. Glad you have a flight finally!

Arrival local time is 12:50pm on NOV 6 and depart 1pm NOV 7 in LAX. Maybe I’ll visit Disneyland 😄

Just received my flights. I have just over 24 hour layover between flight. Good grief! Haha

Have you called NCL air to confirm they have both legs on their list? Seems odd you’d get the return and not the prior. 

I've everyday called for the past week. Every person says they've escalated it to the ticketing dept but still no flight info. My edocs are available too and only the flights home are on it. Its a messed up situation

My cruise is in 13 days and I have only received flight information for my flights home. I still dont know how i'm getting to Papeete, not sure if others have experienced this in the past but something to be mindful of i guess

I am on Spirit right now.

 

The room is there and splash is gone!

thank you!!!

So strange. The interactive deck plan when booking for Oct 31 South Pacific: Bora Bora, Moorea & Raiatea trip is the blue one with Splash Academy instead of the new rooms. 

I have an upcoming trip on the Spirit at the time we selected room 10171. I just looked at the deck plan and the rooms in that area look to be replaced by "splash Academy" , is this just a deck plan error or have these rooms been removed?

Jacked into HDMI port with my DVD player.

Had to use a special jack out of DVD then male to male rca Jack's into an HDMI converter then HDMI into TV.

One hooked up, HDMI became active on TV and it worked.

I am on the Spirit in a couple weeks. To confirm. RCA to HDMI converter worked on this ship?

Airplane mode works just fine with with both wifi and bluetooth turned on.

 

I'm not sure why there is any dispute over this.

 

Screen shot of phone in Airplane mode with wifi and bluetooth on.

 

 

Video of turning airplane mode on.  Note wifi and bluetooth remain on and can be turned off and on manually.

A wifi connection requires that you not be in Airplane mode.

Why is this so hard?

 

again, you're wrong.

Really?

Why don't you explain to the class how your phone is going to receive a single message when its data and cellular signal is turned off.

(I can't wait to hear this one)

You don't require cellular data to receive iMessage's, this includes enabling airplane mode. All you need is a wifi connection. There isn't much more explaining needed on this topic, its quite simple.

Don’t put your phone in airplane mode unless you are trying to avoid getting any messages from anyone.   Not only will airplane mode block all wifi signals, it will kill your cellular reception, turn off your bluetooth, and on some phones even block GPS triangulation.  
 

Airplane mode basically turns your phone into a nightlight.  

everything about this post is incorrect, sheesh

I was considering the Upgrade to Unlimited Premium Wi-Fi (with Streaming) package for my upcoming cruise. Has anyone had success connecting a firestick or similar device to their TV?

26 days from my cruise and still no flight itinerary yet. My flights are from Toronto to Papeete. I called NCL and they told me itinerary might not be received until the 14 day mark. Something to consider if you're flying out of a logistically challenging airport?

is anyone able to see rooms available for the NOV 7 Spirit Bora Bora cruise? Balcony & ocean view are only "best available" for me

We received our itinerary 14 days ago for our south pacific cruise leaving November 7th. Still wondering if anyone else is on French Bee coming back from Tahiti to San Francisco. Never heard of French Bee. Anyone have experience with them?

I think we are on the same cruise. We flew home French Bee in 2019 and there were no major issues. 2hr delay for departure but that was it. 

What day do you arrive in LAX for your connecting flight to Papetee?
