Thank you - good to know.

Haven't sailed on NCL in a few years, but it looks like they have removed the coffee makers from the cabins.  Is it true if I ask our cabin steward they would bring one to us?  We are not coffee drinkers, but tea drinkers, and really just need it to boil the water.

Platinum and above also get a free wine tasting and behind the scenes tour. Go to the cruise next desk the day you board to sign up for these.

I am Sapphire status and the person I am traveling with has never been on NCL.  Can they join me for the wine tasting and Behind the Scenes tour or will he be charged?

Thank you for all your responses.  Also looking at the Pearl but on a 4 day cruise  - am I still entitled to 2 specialty dinners or just 1?  Thanks

Thinking of taking a 5 night cruise on the Pearl.  I am Sapphire status - how many Specialty dinners will I get?  And for which restaurants?

I don't normally have dessert, but this ricotta bamboloni is the bomb dot com... Some kind of fried donuts with ricotta and black currant something... It's good, trust me...

 

 

Hi Sid - I think my friend and I were a table away from you at Extra Virgin (I recognized your shirt).  Looks like you two were having a lovely dinner 😉😉 Hope to bump into you around the ship.

For my cruise in October, the dining reservation window is now open (I'm in a Rockstar suite).  When I try and make the reservation it says "No Bookings Needed" and I cannot proceed.  Why is that?  I was able to make a dinner reservation for 1 of the 4 nights.

Hi Sid - I'm actually a "lurker", but enjoy your writing so much - so witty.  I am actually going to be on the same October 18th cruise!  Never sailed Virgin before - I'm a die hard NCL cruiser.  So looking forward to this cruise.

Thank you for the tips!

Do you know of any of the balcony/suite cabins that do have separate beds? 

Was wondering if the bed in the Seriously Suite w/ terrace (12285A) on the SL can be turned into 2 twins?

Haven't been on a RCL cruise in years.  Going on the Freedom on 10/10.  Going with my BFF and her 3 kids ages 9, 10 & 16.  Any tips and suggestions of stuff to do?  Heard the sports bar is fun and is right next to the casino.  Are there deck parties at night?  Late night comedians?. 

What are the Platinum perks while doing a 4 day cruise?

We are Platinum and just wondering what perks we would receive on a 3 day cruise - if any.  

Thanks

That's where I thought I would see it on the "Vacation Summary" page under "Reservation At-a Glance", but I don't see anything there.:confused:

Just wondering where I would see my OBC on my reservation. Have a cruise booked on the Getaway for December but I do not see what my OBC will be. Thanks

Just booked the Getaway for NYE cruise and we got the UDP. Our son is coming with us who is 20 and we do allow him to drink beer. Right now he has the sido package and does not drink soda. Can we get him the UDP and sign a waiver to allow him to drink beer/wine? Thanks

Thanks so much for your responses. I did actually email cas and I got an email back today saying that we will be receiving the perk of breakfast/lunch at Cagney's! So happy. Just amazing when I called cas they flat out told me no, and then today by email it's a yes! Roll on Friday!

Just bumping this up to see if anyone has been on a cruise recently being a golden or vip and to see what the perks are. We are on the Pearl this Friday and would love to know what to expect.

How does one contact a certain HD on a ship. Trying to email Jean Michel Dhelin and not sure how to get an email to him. Thanks

Yes this does help very much - thanks. It definitely was Jean Michel Dhelin that was on the Sky, now just have to figure which HD was on the Epic.

Wondering if anyone could help me out here.....DH and I were on the Epic for NYE for 2012/13 and wondering who the HD was. He was definitely from France as my DH being French conversed with him. He was such a nice gentleman, gave us his business card and I of course have lost it!!

Also, looking for another HD who has been on the Sky a few times, also French.

I know there has been alot of talk about this, but my husband is at the Golden level and I just called CAS to see if we can eat at Cagney's for breakfast/lunch as we will be on the Pearl next week. They told me no - that has been discontinued, but I have read that people as still eating at Cagney's and were told that the new perks don't go into effect until the new year. Has anyone got any info on this? Thanks

Traveling with my 2 teenage kids and want to know if NCL has the capability of putting a daily limit that the kids can charge on their card? Thanks.

Thanks to all of you that responded (and a special thanks to the NCL rep who responded - that is why I am a shareholder!)

Good news! They found the suitcase and it is on its way to me via Fedex. I did have my husbands cellphone # on the luggage tag, but for some reason, my husband was having difficulties receiving calls when he got off the ship. NCL even called us about 1/2hr after we left the port driving home, but due to phone problems - never got the call or message. We did get the message 2 days later!! Anywhoooo - all is well, great service by NCL and great followup.
