  1. Thank you so much. Do have to use NCL internet or can my wife use her jet pack with our verizon service?
  2. Do both people in the room have to purchase upgraded premium wi-fi. I don't use it at all. My wife wants to stay connected.
  3. We've are in the planning stages. We live in California. Thinking of taking a cruise from New York City to Reykajvik. On the day the cruise ends we hope to catch a flight back home. Does anyone know how long we would have to wait at the Airport to fly back home?
  4. I got this email from our PCC today. It could be this? Latitude Members Cruise: Join us for an exclusive Latitude Alaska Cruise, Plus get an extra 10% off. Bliss - September 28 - October 5, 2024.
  5. taznremmy, Thanks for the info. I really appreciate it.
  6. I was wondering what time you left the ship? Also did you have any trouble getting a taxi? I've got a 12:08 flight on a Saturday after a cruise.
  7. On May 4th (Saturday) our ship the NCL Bliss is due back at Pier 66 Cruise Terminal at 6:00am. The flight I'm looking at is 12:08pm (Seatac). The next flight is 5:30pm and hate waiting around the airport that long. My question is will I be able to make the 12:08pm flight if we carry our luggage off and catch a taxi? I'm hoping someone with Seattle travel experience can answer this question.
  8. Thank's everyone for the great advice on fixing my connection issue. My edge browser hasn't been able to log into my ncl account for a couple of days. Was able to log in with Chrome browser, so I cleared my cookies for the last 4 weeks and everything works fine now.
  9. We were in the Haven a few weeks ago. We booked all of our diner reservations 125 days before the cruise. You can book at 12:00am eastern time on that date. We had no problem booking dates and times we wanted. While on the ship we heard that Bayamo by Ocean Blue was very good. We didn't have a reservation for the restaurant and it was booked up. We asked our Concierge if he could get us in and he got us a 7:00pm table. Also, there was an excursion we wanted to do, however it was sold out. We checked with our Concierge and he booked us. Haven life is good!
  10. I was in the Haven on the Escape a few weeks ago. Embarkation day lunch was in the American Diner. Food was very good. There's a menu on the NCL Escape website. Hope this helps?
  11. I was on the Escape last month. Le Bistro was much better than Cagney's. Had the ribeye at Cagney's and it was a very poor-quality cut of meat. Person in the table next to us had the same complaint. Our surprise was Bayamo by Ocean Blue which was very good. I had the Crab Cake appetizer and Gumbo which was excellent. My entree was the Sea Bass with White Wine Butter Sauce (Yummy).
  12. Congratulations............I've found the 10% a nice chunk of change.
  13. I've used the Veterans Discount twice. Once on an Escape Haven Suite which ended September 17th and on a new sailing Bliss in April 2024. Saved $750 plus on both. There's an initial process you have to follow to get the credit. You sign on or open a veteran gov.id account to verify your military serivce. Very easy process. Then the 10% discount always shows up when planning or booking a crusise. I first used the Veterans discount about 6 to 8 months ago. Ncl also invites you to a very nice cocktail party for veterans which is done very well. Hope this helps?
  14. Are you aware that there is a cruise out of Reykjavik, ending in Boston. The ship is the Jade. It's one day shorter than the Star cruise. I'm currently thinking about a cruise out of Reykjavik. I'm not sure which ship would be better (Star or Jade)? Haven't been on either one. Hopefully someone had been on both ships and give us their opionion?
  15. Thank you so much for the information. We do have a late flight. We were looking at the sightseeing excursion. However, when we went to sign up for it last week it was sold out. Still kicking myself for procrastinating. We will be in the Haven and I'm hoping the concierge can find a spot for us.
  16. Next month we'll be on the Escape out of the Manhatten Cruise Terminal. Has anyone taken the Ship's Transfer to JFK after the cruise? If so, what time do you board the bus and about what time does the bus leave for the Airport?
  17. Thank you. Great report and review on your Haven experience. I'll be on the Escape next month out of New York City. We've been in Suites on other NCL ships. However, this will be our first time in Haven. It sounds like Haven is a totally different experience.
  18. I'm on the Escape out of New York City on September 10th. Haven't received email about changes. Our current stops are Newport, Portland, Bar Harbor, St John and Halfifax. No sea days.
  19. We are also researching transportation to JFK after our cruise in September. Our NCL ship has transportation for $37.50 each person. They also have a 3 1/2 hour tour with drop off at JFK or LGA. Cost is $199 per person. Thinking about the latter option because our flight doesn't leave until 6:30pm.
  20. You walk out of the Ferry Terminal onto a side street that runs along the water. It's a straight shot to the Cruise Terminals. We walked on the sidewalk and side street (4 of us side by side). I didn't notice any cars parked on the street? May be no parking? Others might confirm that. We're taking a cruise in September on the NCL Escape. Staying at the Residence Inn at Port Imperial Weehawken for the first time. In the past we stayed at the Sheraton Lincoln Harbour. Nice hotel and the Ferry loading dock is right across the street. Thought we'd try something different and the Port Imperial has a terminal and easier access to the ferry stop close to the 911 memorial.
  21. The Ferry Terminal from Port Imperial is Pier 79. I've walked it a couple of times with luggage to ship the ship in 10 to 15 minutes. Once in the rain and I'm 75.
  22. Again, Thanks for the good information. We decided to just go ahead and upgrade to the Haven Penthouse Balcony Suite. There wasn't that many Haven Suites left, plus the cost difference between our bids and what we paid wasn't that big of a difference.
  23. Good points.....I'm also on the same cruise. We are currently in a Club Balcony Mini Suite and have bids in for the Haven Courtyard and Forward Facing Suite. Still waiting....Does anyone know if taxes and insurance are added to the amount of the bid if accepted?
