Yes. They no longer expiree

The shortest cruise I have done is 7 days. Upgrading to unlimited was around $100 if I remeber correctly. So should be a little less for 5 days. 70-80? Just guessing!

There is regular free coffe available in different places on the ship. For example the buffet. Speciality coffess are not free. Energy drinks are not free. There is good drinking water available in bars and restuarants, including the buffet. Not in bottles though. Bottles available for purchase. One speciality meal on a 5-day cruise. Choose anyone of the non-complimentary restaurants. Internet is not unlimited unless you upgrade. On a 5-day cruise you get 75 minutes. You get charged a service fee of around $22/day for the drinks package if you're a US guest. There is also a service fee for the speciality dinner that you get charged. Both of them during booking.

Some of it I can answer: I almost always ask for "no ice" when buying soda. There is club soda or similar in the gun and I suppose you can ask for tap water as well in the bars. With or without ice! They don't seem to be very stringent on bringing half consumed water bottles back to ship. (Probably varies.)

That's what I do as well. But I would prefer not to have them there at all right from the start.

That new longer itinerary is a great improvement in my opinion. You will have a great time I'm sure!

That sounds like very good news!!!!

That's brilliant! My daughter frequently tells me she doesn't want any money when I die. I'm working on granting that wish. 😁

Yeah, but I think the shuttle drop off is at berth 4 which was what was asked.

I book cheap rooms and ride a bicycle. But I travel A LOT (not just cruising)! People ask me how I can afford it. Cheap rooms and a bicycle... 😄 (Although my "lowest acceptable standard" is considerably higher now that once upon a time.)

As per my post #86 a Med cruise, Barcelona roundtrip.

No, that's not correct. March 28 to April 7 there's a Mediterranian cruise. Barcelona-Barcelona.

Just a small update: Breakaway March 28 cruise is back on NCL web page but it is now a Mediterranian Barcelona roundtrip March 14-28 there is a cruise Southampton to Barcelona that is similar to original March 28 one, but extended a few days.

Gee, I feel so simple and unorganized... I have never thought about price per person per day! I look at the total price and think "Is it worth it?" I seem to have a great time whether in insides, oceanviews and balconies so there is no "must have" for me. But I do look at different aspects apart from money. Does the ship have good outdoor spaces where I can spend time instead of having my own balcony? Is there an observation lounge where I can hang out? Is this a "once in a lifetime" trip or am I likely to do a similar itinerary at some other time? And after considering those things, "is it worth it?". Maybe, maybe not...

I have a vague memory of that too! But I could very well be wrong. Either way, if you want it on your phone you can open the document and make a screenshot of the bar code.

Actually they aren't supposed to fill you own cup (post pandemic). Some do anyway and some don't.

As @Russiamomm says, that is incorrect. In speciality restaurants you "pay" with you keycard. I'm usually solo, but it is my understanding that each guest provide their keycard when it's time to pay. I don't know if they check if it's the right person holding the keycard, but they sure can!

I don't know about the FCC. I guess that has to to do where it's from. (FCC has nothing to do with CruiseNext. The credit you get from CruiseNext is counted towards your CN purchase right away.) I do however know that you can male as many small payments as you like! I do it all the time. I cannot do in on the web page though, but in the app. Just click "other amount"

As long as times aren't overlapping it shows up. Or do you see those that overlap as well?

YES! YES! YES! That ould be nice! They can still block my ability to book, no problem. But I want to see what's availble!

I mostly get it in the buffet(s). That suits me very well, so I haven't really looked for it elsewhere. There has usually been self serve drinks stations (coffee, water) in the outdoor bars as well on the ships I have sailed.

A soda is around 3.50 + 20% making it 4.20. So very expensive! Water (flavoured and natural), tea and coffee are available for free pretty much always. Hot chocolate powder is available at least at breakfast. Possibly all day (haven't looked for it so I don't know). Milk is also available. And yes, juice (typically orange, apple cranberry or similar) is availble for free at breakfast.

And unless you have something to put in front of it it may slip! 😄

I stand corrected! You are absolutely right! And I could use the "more filters" and clic "3rd passenger free" (or something like that)to find the cruises. But, as I said, I'm a solo traveller so makes no difference to me!

What I meant is that as a EU person I haven't seen that particular promo. Or at least not noticed it. (Being a solo traveller I wouldn't have been looking anyway so I may have missed it.)
