Last March we were on the Gem and in the OS and were supposed to have 2 bottles of Crown in the room and 1 Bacardi. The rum was there but not the Crown and the butler said that he was having trouble getting it as the supplies were low. I went to the M&G the next morning and as the Food & Beverage manager was leaving I told him this. When we got back to our room a couple hours later there they were. 🥳

We were on the Jade on NYE cruise and didn't get a drink card in our cabin (OS) so when we went to the casino we went to the desk to ask why not. They told me that since we got a discount on our cabin that we wouldn't be getting one. We are not big drinkers - I may have one or two at most and DH only drinks about 3-4 beers so it's not like it's a big deal but just another downgrade among the many. I am glad to hear that other cruise lines have better benefits as we have been disappointed in not only CAS but NCL quality has sunk to low levels (and this is from a disillusioned NCL cheerleader). We are thinking of trying RC or maybe another Princess.

It is Day 2 and a sea day. Currently we are. Sailing around the Florida keys making our way to Nassau Daily attached. I have noticed others post the Daily so it is nicely cropped, but I can’t seem to figure that out on my iPad.Tonights show is Acrobats. If we finish dinner in time, then we might go. Today we will enjoy all the amenities of The Haven. I’ll post some pics of it later on. If at all possible go to this show as it was fantastic!! Seriously they should go on America's got talent as they were so good. The music was meh but their talent was amazing. The comedian wasn't funny and we didn't go to Blazing boots as we had seen them on the Gem in March and it was just okay.

I hope you get Virza for your butler and Careen for your steward as we just got off today and they were excellent! Please tell them Hi from Steve and Lisa if you do. 🥰

Well, it appears to be an issue using chrome as I switched browsers and was able to get in. 🙂

I did use a username but that didn't work so I tried to do the reset but they can't even find me by my email. Sigh... guess I will have to call.

Anybody else having a problem logging onto NCL? When I go to NCL I know I had my login name and pw correct but it wouldn't log me in so I clicked on the forgot username/pw and put in my name/email and they can't find me.

I think my hubby has the Whatsapp on his phone and I could put it on my phone as well. So, you are saying that we don't need to logon to get the texts/calls? Would there be a charge from Whatsapp then?

Thanks, but sorry to see this.

Thank you.

We can't walk long distances without a break and I can't remember if Cozumel or Costa Maya have the trolleys or pedicabs so that we don't have to walk too far.

Thanks all for the input and I had plans to call the access desk but it was too late in the day and I really wanted help from someone who had first hand knowledge. So, I did call them today and they said that the door is 26" so it would not go straight through which I knew but they couldn't/wouldn't validate that Scootaround would deliver and take the chair apart to get it through the door and they are the only vendor that NCL allows to deliver. I called Scootaround and told the woman what they had said and at first she said they couldn't do it but I think she really just didn't understand how easy it would be to take the back off and carry it in. I kept working with her and she finally got authorization that it could be delivered. 🥳 Persistence or stubbornness is key. 🙄 Thanks again Pcakes for this help and hope all your future cruises are with calm seas.

Well, I decided to rent a recliner for my upcoming cruise on the Jade but when I called Scootaround they asked the width of the door as the motorized is 34" wide. They said I had to contact NCL to find out what the width of the door is. I called the pre-concierge and was told that they wouldn't be able to deliver it as it's not an accessible room even though it is the owner's suite and that the width is only 26 inches. My hubby and I believe that it's wider than that so we're not sure if they are correct. I'm wondering if I should find a way to talk to the special needs dept. to see if this is true. I know you have said you have been in suites but were they all accessible as well? Have you been in OS with them? Thanks for any information you can give me. Lisa

I just looked and I was going to book a suite but just never got around to it now there are no suites left for the sailing I want. I have never sailed on RC so don't know how things usually go... so is there a good likely hood or at least half a chance that one will become available by then? I will keep checking daily but want to know if I should just give up and look for something else.
