  1. We sailed EPiC on its inaugural season almost ten years against on our honeymoon. Back then we had to reserve a time for the icebar. I don’t see that option anymore. Is it walk in now? Are you still required to pay a cover charge? 
     

    on another note it looks like blue man group and second city are gone? Is this correct? Thanks much! 

  2. First I am technically a millennial and I am platinum. I’ve paid for all my cruises with my own money. So I take offense over the bashing of millienials. I actually think NCL takes good care of us Platinums.

     

    second am I able to Prebook my free dinner reservations? I looked and availability is pretty thin for the good times on my cruise, I would hate to miss out on using my benefit by waiting till I board to book.

    1/12/2020 cruise. Notified 51 days out. 

     

    My worst nightmare.  basically up all night to make a 6am departure then for return wait 13hrs to arrive home in the middle of the night the next day.  I can’t think of a worse schedule. ok, connecting flights but both departure times suck. 

    I’ve seen some people post that if you call immediately after getting your flights there is wiggle room to adjust them Because they have not paid yet. 
     

    Are you flying in the day of the cruise? If so I would dare risk getting a later arrival flight especially flying out of Chicago in the winter.

  4. Alright I got the processing status on my bid:

    Sailing: 12/23 Dawn from San Juan

    Purchased category: IF inside (deck4)

    Bids made: $135 for balcony and $70 for 

    Oceanview 

    Bid accepted: $70 oceanview accepted on 12/18 5 days prior to sailing 

     

    its not not showing which category oceanview I got yet.

     

    I would have preferred to win balcony but was desperate to get off the medical center/ tender floor. So this is a win too. 

  5. I leave on Dawn from San juan sunday, this morning the cruise disappeared from the site. No one on role call has reported an upgrade. On Sunday there were still about 10 rooms in each room type (oceanview, balcony, mini suites). Then Monday it showed nothing available. Today it’s gone. Not sure if they just took is down to do the upgrades or if they really sold those rooms. I’m waiting eagerly.

    Actually yesterday morning just hours before the email of my upgrade there were about a dozen balcony's showing available. Not sure what to tell you on lowering your bid as your cruise is definitely fuller.  You never know, but seems they are sending out the emails 3 to 4 days out prior to cruise day on the Dawn this month.  Personally if I really wanted the balcony I would keep my bid as is,  still a great deal.  I didn't bid on a OV by the way.  Didn't want to take a chance on being placed on a lower deck. Good luck and enjoy your Christmas cruise!!!

    Thanks! Hope you have a great time as well!

     

    Im currently on deck 4 in an IF so I’ll take any upgrade they will give me. Looks like there are about 12 ocean view and 10 balcony left at the moment. I’m going to keep my bids steady since really it would be a steal to get a balcony from my bottom of the line room. Even an ocean view would likely take me off the medical/tender deck.

    Very surprised....upgraded from inside to balcony $70 pp on the Dawn leaving Sunday out of San Juan.  Going to keep it a secret from my DH until we walk to our cabin.  :classic_biggrin:

    I’m on the dawn cruise after you, I bet I’ll find out my fate next week. I know your cruise was much less full- but do you know how many balcony rooms were available before you got your upgrade? I currently have a bid for $60 for ocean view and $140 for balcony- I’m wondering if I should lower the balcony bid as I have heard I few now get it for under $100. Anyone feel free to chime in.
