Orvieto and Civita di Bagnoregio, sometimes you can find a tour that includes both.

Do these cabins have fridges?

All ashore should be around 9:30 am. 

Thank you

Our ship docks in Athens at 5:30 what might be the latest we can leave ship?

Just received email mosquito’s on our upcoming France, Italy, Greek cruise departing Barcelona. We’ve done many similar itineraries and never received an email like this. Is anyone aware of a particular problem with certain European countries? If so which ones? I always pack repellant on any trip we do but have never had to use it except in Yosemite. Did anyone receive this email as related to their upcoming cruise. 

Some smaller businesses and street only take cash too.

Not gonna lie, I'm pretty jealous you're getting a replacement port. We're just getting an extra sea day, with our Tortola cancellation.

Our 9 day cruise has no sea days pretty intense schedule, we may just use this new port as sea day.

Our Med cruise in 2022 visited both Corfu and Katakolon.  We enjoyed both!  In Katakolon, we wanted to visit Olympia and the archeological site.  We chose The Olympia Project semi-private tour with Niki Olympic Tours.  The included lunch was so good!!!

Thank you  I will check that out.

Looks like NCL cancelled Corfu on several cruise last year. I begin to think they include it to entice people to sign up but have no intention of actually going there. Several people think it was to cut fuel costs.

Yours is not the only ship to drop Corfu for Katakalon, I think it's the third I know of.

That’s interesting I wonder what the problem is.

Thank you all for port suggestions.

Well, I hope this isn’t a trend. We’re supposed to be in Corfu in September on the Pearl and that’s one of the destinations We are very excited about! Do they say why they are changing it?

No real explanation, seems to be a trend with NCL after following the boards on NCL. This is my grandaughter's  graduation trip and she's a little dissapointed. on the positive side some longer port times.

Just received email this morning about itinerary’s changes for Getaway June 16-27 Greek Cruise. They eliminated Corfu and replaced with Katalon/Olympia Greece. Very disappointed. I also posted on roll call but it’s very dead so I thought I would post here as well. Back to the drawing board. NCL said they would list their tours May 10. Also some changes to port times, that are good thing. Anyone with suggestions of what type of tours for new port?

We too had booked private excursion. It left early and we goy there before the larger boats. Less expensive than the cruise ship smaller group. I would only do ships tour if you were in port a short period of time.

What is on deck 4 of NCL Getaway, it doesn’t show on deck plans. Would there be anything that would effect cabins on deck 5 ?

I can’t seem to find if Gwtaway solo ocean view cabin on deck 6 have mini fridge? I know solo studios do not.

Thank you all.

Has anyone used  AT&T cruise ship plan on board and if so how did it work? Plan seems to be less thru them vs NCL.

We were on the Connie cruise before the TA out of Tampa. We love the ship, it is showing its age in some areas, but we wouldn’t hesitate to sail her again. Ship layout out is great, buffet is a little spread out but you get more steps in. I hope the refurbishment doesn’t make any major changes.

Why does that matter when you can just print them in any size? Not to mention you can just trim with scissors if need be.

 

I bought a generic pack of holders and they fit fine.

Wouldn’t it be nice to just answer the question without critism!

Search for NCL holders Amazon NCL Luggage Tags

They give no measurements on those tags and there seems to be other NCl tags on Amazon in different sizes. That’s why I asked for the size of the actual tag. I was aware I can get tags on Amazon as I have before for other cruise lines.

What are the measurements of the current printable luggage tags?

You can’t  call what they serve ice cream let alone call what they refer to as gelato. If you’ve ever had Hagen Daz or Ben and Jerry’s or real gelato don’t waste your calories with Celebrity’s imitations.

I may be picky, but remain quite pleased with one little extra perk on Celebrity:  cloth towels in the public restrooms.  It is such a nice touch to make the Celebrity experience more luxurious than other mid-priced cruise lines.   

 

So glad Decoy is back!   

I agree about the bathrooms and they are always so clean! We were on Crown Princess and there bathrooms were poorly set up and small, I felt like I was in a department store or fast food restaurant bathroom.

I have sailed a lot on all 3 classes of Celebrity ships.

 The older ships are less glitzy and also less crowded.

 They do have Fewer Specialty Dining options than you had on the Edge class ships.

   Some of us are not big fans of the Infinite Veranda window cabins on E class ships and like Real Verandas.

 My biggest dislike of the Edge class ships is the lack of a Forward-facing Sky Lounge that is a feature on All of the older ships.

  Do some Youtube video tours and see what the Eclipse looks like?

 

 

I agree about E class faux verandas. Also lack of forward facing sky lounge, we tried a Princess cruise last year and it also lacked that type of space as well as poorly planed main dining areas. We will stay with M and S clas Celebrity ships.
