Mmmmmm, leftovers. Seriously, a lot of food tastes better the second day when the flavors really come together.
Uncooked food from the previous day is not "leftovers", unless I misunderstand your definition.

Order two (or three or four). It's the MDR. Your post makes no sense.

No. I believe they are confusing the fact that all the Main Dining Rooms (either 2 or 3) have the same menu for that evening.

No one NEEDS to be on line during a cruise.
No one? Absolutely no one? Time to wake up and join the year 2024.

Anyone know what amount is supposed to be taxed?
Without booking the exact rooms, on the exact same cruises, at the exact same times -- no, no one knows the amount you are supposed to be taxed.

No formal nights on NCL?
No. Dress Up nights, if you wish. There are photographers available whatever night you choose to take pictures. Dressed up, or not.

That is a very interesting statement.
It is what it is. I agree with you. You need to explore past what you "know", right?

Which Royal ship were you on? Was it the ship you didn't like or lots of other things as well?
We were on Ovation in Alaska. A very fine ship, but different from NCL. No drink package or specialty dining included. Great shows, but not "Choir of Man" level. We had no complaints but will choose NCL.

the Escape looks like a big ship with lots of options.
The Escape is a great ship. Very similar to a Quantum class like Ovation of the Seas.
But different. Obviously.
I think your girls will love it.

So now it is unclear how a rotating menu would fix the fact that Haven menu has seafood and that you only tolerate what is on the non-seafood menu.
Wait. What? Is the Bird saying that the Haven restaurant should not have a rotating menu? That is the single most posted complaint about the Haven. And you agree with it?

Without actual knowledge of the true facts, you will receive your luggage whenever it gets there, with whatever tags you have. Haven, or not.

As a Loyal-to-Royal, you will not be as satisfied with NCL. We are NCL loyal and were not satisfied with the one cruise we took on Royal. It is all about what you expect. Both lines are the same, with different feels, vibes, packages, etc.
You prefer what you know.

The menus seem to be following "foodie" (not just health) trends.
I can agree. Thus, pork belly seems to be a trend. Not for the animal fat conscious. I'd prefer a properly cooked beef pot roast.

The good buns are in the American Diner.
Excellent. Now, how about the cheeeese?

being said however, if she doesnt see the northern lights, my life is forfeit
I can kind of relate. I'm giving up the last opportunity in my lifetime to see a total eclipse. Oh well, I'll be cruising. I'll get over it. It will probably end up being completely overcast where I was planning to stay anyway.

You can't take the money with you when you go, but you can take your experiences.
How does that work, exactly?

If you have Platinum of above status on NCL you also get 2 free specialty dining meals. One with a bottle of wine.
They aren't even bronze yet.

Well, maybe coinciding with removal of the beef entrees, they decide they better step up their game on the strip steak. One can hope. Or, maybe it's just different sourcing.
I will take one (or three) for team, starting next week on the Encore repo. This will be my 7th attempt. I'll be going in with pretty low expectations, so who knows?

The reason people fly in the day of the cruise is because they have a thing known as a "job". You might have heard of it. Also known as employment.
Thank you so much. I was unaware. 😏
Here's a few ideas: leave Friday night after work or take a cruise that leaves on Sunday (there are 6 of them just in Miami this weekend), or maybe suck it up and take an unpaid day off. If that stretches the budget too much, maybe think twice about a cruise.
It's not rocket science to figure out how to get in a day early.

I'm genuinely curious as to why anyone cares when the ship pulls away from the pier.
It's called "sail away" for a reason, man! 😄 It's a thing.
I would have no problem waiting for awhile. I guess the party would just last longer. But how long do you wait, and for what number of passengers, when no one knows if or when they will arrive?

I'm a bit surprised to read these statements.
I'm not. Why are these people flying in the day of embarkation? Getting left behind is the price you pay for that mistake.

But I did notice you recognized yourself immediately.

Thought I saw under classic entree’s a grilled NY strip steak. Maybe I was mistaken?

We're well aware of the gnarly daily strip steak. We're watching the featured (changing) entrees. No beef yet.
