For Alaska I’d probably get it, but you have to look if you are actually going to have time to use it? If you are heavily port intensive might not have time to use it. Love it in there you can easily fall asleep on the heated lounge chairs. And best to go not on busy times

My account statement was $95.36.  It has not hit my CC when looking at my CC account online.  My GF's actual charges were like $20.  I think that charge plus an extra $12 mysterious charge hit her account already PLUS the $200. 

Could it possibly be the gratitudes?

what do you do to your phone so you can use free wifi while in port

 

thanks

Keep in airplane mode and pull up WiFi looking for free WiFi (unlocked)

Wonder if those who don’t get the drink package would you bring water enhancers to change the flavors ? Especially now there is a wine one

Can anyone tell me if you have to make a reservation for Connexxion Schiphol Hotel shuttle or if you can purchase a ticket inside the airport. If you can, do you know if it cash only?  Thanks

You can make a reservation prepaid or buy in airport

We are due overnight in Amsterdam on 5th and 6th April (I know a lot of boats are not calling there, but we will be on a small ship).  We love Amsterdam and have been a number of times, but are interested in taking a trip out the first day to somewhere more peaceful as we will be on a 'city heavy' cruise.

 

I have looked at Zaanse Schans https://www.dezaanseschans.nl/en/  I can click through from this website to info regards bus 391,  but I cannot find up to date time tables or even how often they run - can anyone help?  We are thinking of going into Zaandam for an evening meal on the way back and would like to return to the ship late night if buses are still running then.   It also mentions a day ticket for 11.5  Euros - is that worth while?

 

Any other suggestions are welcome.  

Have a look at the Amsterdam pass , they will have suggestions on what to do

I used Omio.com and paid in my own currency

Was wondering if anyone had traveled in an aurea pkg with more than 2 adults and did the other adults get the same privileges such as thermal suite, drinks etc?

K9joe is the best for tours around st Thomas

I’ve used ShoreExcursioneer, shore excursions group and viator all due to their prices are cheaper, they guarantee to get you back to ship on time or to the next port and less people more knowledgeable

Eat at Gladys cafe best Caribbean food and the best heart

Can I match my MSC Black in reverse? To gain status in other places?

 

I know no other cruise line matches status but are there any hotels, casinos etc who will accept MSC black as a valid status match?

Maybe on URComped.com

Booked on Hotwire 4.5 star hotel for may 2019 2 nights $135 cdn per night for 3 adults for hamburg Germany

Got the Mövenpick hamburg hotel !!

Were they color coded to your cabin type?

The thistle pins are really nice to bring back for others

No Yacht Club on MSC Orchestra. Suites with Aurea Experience are the highest category.

Ok just thought someone up above said they were yc on orchestra

Just curious which suites are yc on orchestra? As they don’t seem to have that option on my cruise on orchestra

Thanks for reading![emoji41]

When you on ncl site, under the explore and plan , the restaurants will tell you the price if it's a flat fee or will say ala carte. If you've bought/ choose the dining pkg the the ala cartes restaurants are included

A question about the double points that the OP brought up....

 

 

 

We booked a cruise a year in advance when NCL was still offering double points. This cruise is for this coming December. Will we be entitled to the double points since it was the offer when we made the booking or will they only offer us the single points since the policy changed prior to us actually taking the cruise?

If you didn't make any changes then you should still get the 2x points
