  1. Pics greatly appreciated!!! - keep them coming please!!! Anxious to see cabin pics - especially suites rather than just the artist renderings~~
  2. On one of websites it said that some HE Penthouse suites are larger than others on the NCL Prima. Does anyone know if this is in fact true? And if so which cabin numbers - they span from deck 12 to deck 15 - If anyone has stayed in this type cabin on Prima please advise. Thank you so much!
  3. Booking a cruise to Bermuda next year with Celebrity for the Broadway themed cruise. We are selecting as we cruise Celebrity often. The Broadway cruise uses various lines, NCL, Celebrity, Seabourne, etc. Has anyone sailed on one of these before? Just curious as to how much extra entertainment you got - and how you enjoyed the experience. It looks good!!! If anyone has sailed on one of these - would appreciate comments. Great to have Broadway stars to entertain.
  4. Thank you so much for the information - boarding tomorrow - excited to be in Haven and hoping for decent connection - appreciate your help!
  5. WE are in a corner aft cabin - do you think that will make internet connection better or worse in that location - I once read internet service better when closer to center of ship - I know NOTHING about that - just asking - thank you!
  6. We usually make reservations for the MDR - if not going to a specialty restaurant. Only frustration on Breakaway and Escape - line for dinner - same line for those with reservations and those without - seems it would be easy to break line in two - on left side reservations - right side - walk ups. It would make things easier for all and less waiting for those with reservations in line. Just my opinion - never had more than a 10 or 15 minute wait - but then why make reservations?
  7. I was looking at the Haven dinner menu on another site. It listed Starbucks drinks - can I assume that even in the Haven this is an extra cost? There was no asterisk or anything saying price added on the menu?
  8. We were able to get reservations for Million Dollar Quartet - but when we try Burn the Floor - it keeps saying error message - log out and try again . Also for Syd Norman's Pour House - it says reservations 249 dollars each - that CAN'T be correct - hope glitches clear up. Anyone else having problems - there should be no charge for the Pour House. This is for the Getaway sailing March 18.
  9. Yes, we booked this on the excursion section of the website or app - whichever you prefer. Thanks for the information.
  10. We pre ordered a clam shell online for Great Stirrup Cay. Are they all in one specific area on the island or scattered? How do you claim one? Can you go to any that are unoccupied? Prior 2 cruises GSC was canceled due to high winds and not safe for tenders. Hoping we finally get some beach time there this year. Any information is appreciated. Thanks - smooth sailing to all!
  11. We are traveling with a few other couples in March - sharing transportation to the pier from Pennsylvania. We can only check in online next week - if all couples do not get the same check in time - will they at least allow us INSIDE the terminal to wait? Reason I am asking - on another cruise line - I had a check in at 11:00 - 2 minutes later after my check in online my wife did hers and her earliest time then was 12:00. Since we are married they allowed us BOTH in at 11:00 - not sure how NCL handles this. Any advice if we do not all get the same check in time? Anyone who has sailed out of NYC recently - tell us how your check in went. Some saying less staff and longer waits than before covid?? Any comments appreciated - thank you!
  12. I thank you for the detailed comments - we are so much looking forward to this balcony - if weather good - want breakfast there most days. And noodle bar info appreciated - any other tips - feel free to tell me more - getting excited - 30 days to go!
  13. I thank you kindly for those videos. Despite quite a few of negative reviews of GETAWAY last few months, we are looking forward to our Haven experience and hope we have a great cruise. Smooth sailing to all.
  14. Anyone sail recently in 9316 on Getaway? Booked for the huge balcony and Haven perks. Just wondered who your butler was and how well he/she did. Also, wondering if any issues with vibration in this aft cabin? Any advice or tips greatly appreciated. Sailing out of NYC on March 18 - so hoping warm enough to use the balcony before we have to wait to be more south. Also, who was your concierge - always find them so helpful?
  15. Thanks for the information - I know Haven boarding is a snap with snacks and drinks waiting to board. I just wanted to be sure that our friends could at least enter the terminal - no problem waiting to check in - just as long as they can at least enter and not be outside.
  16. So even if we sign up for different boarding times - they WILL let us all in the terminal in even if second couple has a later boarding time. It sounded like we have to select a boarding time when we register online at 21 days out. Thanks!
  17. We are booked for a cruise in March. We are all being transported via car service to the pier. We are Haven guests; the other couple is not. Can we all at least enter the terminal at the same time (even though we are all not Haven guests)? We have not yet been able to register for cruise docs, as that does not open till 21 days prior to cruise. If we are not able to all get the same boarding time online; can the later people at least get into the terminal, but not the seated waiting area? This did NOT seem a problem in prior years before covid. What is the earliest time we can expect Haven guests to board. It was previously around 10:30 to 10:45 in prior years out of NYC. Any recent experiences with boarding in NYC would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for answering my questions and smooth sailing to all!

  19. Is Food Republic complimentary? I know we PAY for everything in cruise fare - ha - just was not sure if this was an add on specialty restaurant? Thanks for any information!
  20. There was a post I read (not on CC) that NCL is cutting expenses end of January by reducing entertainment options on their ships. The article said specifically that Kinky Boots will stop production in January, and that other entertainment staff was being reduced and sent home on other NCL ships. I hope this is not true - we are sailing GETAWAY in March and were excited about seeing the Million Dollar Quartet.
  21. We just booked a suite class cruise on ICON. When we made the reservation it gave us options of 5:30, 8:00 or My Time dining on the reservation. I selected My Time - but I am confused. Are there reservation times for Coastal Kitchen - found no place online to make a time for Coastal Kitchen - yet there are times shown to make a specific time in specialty restaurants. Please advise - thank you!
  22. We have 2 free specialty restaurant dinners on our upcoming Getaway Cruise. Likewise, we have two MORE specialty restaurant dinners from being Platinum members in the Latitudes Rewards programs. When we board; are these 4 free dinners loaded on our sea pass card or do we get coupons to verify we in fact do not have to pay for these dinners once on board? Thanks for your help !
  23. I was just wondering if it is possible to print out the cruise planner calendar which lists all shore excursions, specialty restaurants, etc.? If so please advise -
  24. Booked this cruise about a week ago - friends wanted to join us - can you believe ALL retreat suites are totally sold out??? Or do you think some are held and will have to be purchased AFTER the 75 % off second guest in cabin? Just surprised all sold out already for 2024.
  25. Kelly - looking at Cruise Ship Tracker - it looks like BEYOND is already in Cape Liberty - probably just moving SLOWLY to enter the dock early tomorrow morning - also if signed up for Halloween get together on your spreadsheet - was there a time for that - or was it deleted or not yet posted. Thanks for all your efforts 🙂
