Add boarding pass to Apple Wallet
SunshineGal2022 replied to quack2's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
Thanks for this tip. I’ll just print it and put it in the RFID folder with my passport. It will be easy enough to show both at the same time then 🙂 -
Personally I would pay for the upgrade before the cruise (when it will be cheaper). I imagine you’ll be able to get in for either place, if not both, if you go straight to Teppanyaki after boarding. If you can’t get reservations for either place, I would ask Guest Services for a refund immediately that day. I’m not sure if they would allow it, but I also do think you have a good chance of getting into one of your choice restaurants.

The ocean villas are closer to the snorkel trail, which is at the main beach. The ocean villas are also closer to the restaurant, zip lines, and closer to more food trucks. The lagoon villas are at the end of the developed beach, and you must either walk a bit (or hitch a ride on the golf cart) to get back to the main snorkel trail. I’m not sure if you can snorkel in the lagoon, but I don’t see why not. You probably won’t see as many fish as you would out near the reef though.

Perhaps you can modify the return flight home with the airline’s own website(s) to stay the extra full day in Rome.

Question about 'Free at Sea' beverage package and kids
SunshineGal2022 replied to jmae2002's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
Look at your email confirmation on what you have. I am pretty sure it’s $90 each to add pop for the week for the 3rd and 4th guest. You can call and add it. -
NCL Internet Package Question
SunshineGal2022 replied to hollieann144's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
I understand that, but people lately say the day 2 upgrade is $109, which is saving them the $29 for not using any day 1 minutes. But you can pay $109 if you pre-buy the Internet package anyways. Unless you want to use OBC for the Internet, I don’t understand why people feel the need to wait. You can buy it for only one person pre-cruise, right? -
NCL Internet Package Question
SunshineGal2022 replied to hollieann144's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
I don’t understand the need to wait until the second day. I only have the 150 FAS min but I have the option to upgrade to the unlimited non-streaming wi-if for $109.93 pre-cruise. Am I missing something? This is for a 7 day cruise. Also, how do guests who are not the first person get their own NCL account? Do they need to call CS and get emails sent for each person, or can person #1 submit emails for everyone else in the cabin? -
GSC - Silver Cove, 2 Questions
SunshineGal2022 replied to Maleficent's Dad's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
Thank you both!! -
GSC - Silver Cove, 2 Questions
SunshineGal2022 replied to Maleficent's Dad's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
I know the cabanas come with 4 yellow floats. Do the villas come with those too? Also, I assume the waters in the fridge are included in the price. Can you get more for free, or are those charged to your account if you don’t have the Plus beverage package? -
June 2023 7 days on Escape is also $229
-
Lifting 50 lb bags for hours is hard work. It’s a very physical job and puts strain on your knees, back, shoulders, and hands. I gladly tip luggage porters.
-
We switched passengers in the cabins and we were charged the difference of what we paid v what the current rate was. They also said any more switches may be difficult because of the airfare.

GSC, Lagoon and Ocean villa at Silver Cove same price?
SunshineGal2022 replied to tgloersen's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
If mobility is an issue, and you don’t have a large group, I would book the ocean villas. They are closer to the food and the rest of the island. It would depend on how crowded the ship was and what the weather was like if it is worth it to me. -
You can pre-book them. If they are sold out online, call and see if they have any left. If they are sold out then just keep checking - they may have cancellations.
-
We were told to talk to Guest Services on board to designate the cabana (well, villa for us) guests. I assume this would be where to add another cabana guest too. Or at a ShoreX desk.

NCL's New Terminal in Miami, Florida
SunshineGal2022 replied to crystalaziza's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
Can you bring battery operated neck fans into the waiting area? We have people who cannot overheat. -
Newly turned 18 on NCL? Go before birthday or after?
SunshineGal2022 replied to kelly-NYC's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
At 18, they can go into Vibe or the Thermal Spa. They may like that more than the kids club. -
Just learned my cruise is a Soca cruise
SunshineGal2022 replied to OrangeCatRamblers's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
Is there a way to reach the Cruise Director? He may be able to confirm the soca staff will be taking over the pool deck during certain times or not. The threat of always hearing soca music would annoy me too. I don’t want to hear constant music while I’m on a cruise to relax, especially if it was not my preferred type of music! -
Does NCL provide any pocket deck plans to passengers?
SunshineGal2022 replied to jeph's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
I ordered a credit card sized PVC card on Etsy that had the Escape details printed on the front and back. I don’t know if she has the Prima yet but she might! I had originally searched for Light Cards when I found her. -
This sounds so fun! Activities like this certainly invoke a different atmosphere than napkin folding. I would like both atmospheres, but would prefer the Virgin cruise style that you describe. I would be disappointed in the cruise too. If you spend $10K+ on a vacation, you would hope to not have as many little things go as poorly as you did. The port stop issues in a storm/ bad sea conditions were understandable. But when you combine that with everything else, it would not be a great trip. Hopefully one day you can look back on this trip and laugh at the constant issues. I would tell DH to get an X-ray, to make sure there is not a bone piece stuck under his gums.

Many of the weed strains have smoke that give me migraines. Others have smoke that make me nauseous. Also, if there is enough smoke, I can feel the effects of it, too. And if I can feel it, so can my children. I don’t care if people enjoy it but when it affects others who don’t want to partake then it’s an issue. I have many friends who use it for medical issues and it has changed their life for the better. I understand the need for it to be used medicinally without a break, but if there is a way to keep the smoke away from others, this would be preferred.

The Vibe didn’t show up on my app without me doing a search for it. It should show up from the search, even if you can’t book it.

It seems to be a bug. The “Offer Upgrades” of the Internet, Dining, and Drinks have been coming and going for three months on my app. I put the dining in my cart one day when it came back and then the system would not allow me to remove it! I coudn’t remove it, but the system still could see it was there, because I could not book any dining until I paid for the offer upgrade! Now I need to decide to keep it as it is or call and pay for FAS+. With the drink packages being cut, the Internet being spotty, and the excursions that we wanted being sold out already, maybe it’s not as helpful to have as I thought it would be.

Do you know of any companies in Tortula that would offer a similar tour but in an air conditioned van instead of an open air bus? I am looking for something for a group tour (13) that would do scenic views + beach time. We are in port the typical 6am-2pm from NCL.
