Thank you!

Just wondering if anyone knows if NCL plays NFL games on its ships. I'm going to be on the Norwegian Bliss from 1/7 to 1/22 and would like to know if I'm going to be able to watch any of the playoffs. If anyone knows, please share! Oh, and Go Chiefs!

I paid for the extra devices the minute I got on the ship and had it refunded the next day. The sad thing is when they rolled out MedallionNet, my wife and I tried it out on the Sky on a transatlantic cruise and it was awesome. It’s been borderline unusable ever since. I can’t believe they are still trying to market this as the best internet at sea. We’re in Mazatlán this morning and have usable internet for the first time since Saturday.

Where did you see this post? We weren’t informed.

My wife and are are sailing with my parents. We’ve been looking forward to this cruise for a long time, since it was supposed to originally happen in February of this year. So far, embarkation was “chaotic” to put it mildly. Once on board, service was typical high level Princess. Oh. Internet so far is abysmal. Haven’t left port yet, but I don’t see how that’s supposed to improve anything. Please let me know if you have any questions and I’ll update when I can. Bon Voyage!

Has anyone here uploaded a screenshot of their digital vaccination card (if you have one) instead of a picture of your physical one? If so, did Princess accept it or did they ask for the physical card? TIA.

Mrs. 7seas and I boarded the Ruby Princess at the Port of San Francisco today. The Ruby arrived in port a little later than scheduled due to rough seas, which delayed embarkation. The line just to get into the cruise terminal was outside the building and wrapped quite a ways around. Once we cleared security, it was "smooth sailing". We were both able to check in with no issues (My Medallion works this time!). There was another line onboard and it seemed like the person checking in people had issues with her device that scanned Medallions. Again, it seemed to be resolved fairly quickly. Due to the delay of the ships arrival, the rooms weren't ready right away, so we had a nice lunch in the DaVinci dining room. We went out for the SailAway Party. The ships crew kept making announcements over the ship-wide PA system every time the cruise director tried to get the "party started". Eventually it was pretty comical. We just returned from Dinner in the DaVinci room, which was fantastic. Our dinner was just as the Ruby was passing by Alcatraz and under the Golden Gate bridge. I was able to jump out and capture a couple of pictures from the bow of the ship. Note to anyone who wants to take pictures from the bow of any cruise ship while it's leaving the San Francisco bay: Wear a jacket. It is extremely windy and very cold. If anyone has any questions, feel free to post them in the comments, I'll try to keep up as time and my internet connection allows.
