When NCL lowered their max dollar amount, they increased the price of all drinks. Certain high end drinks were no longer covered...
So I'm expecting drink prices to increase as well...

Just FYI, it's staggered Check In. Boarding time is different and dependent upon when the ship is ready to board.

Bring your own.

Is it a shampoo/conditioner combo? I just know it doesn't work for me...

We have driven from North Florida to NOLA many times day of cruise. But I much prefer arriving the day before.

Ahhh what a bummer to be sick on vacation. Happened to me on our Dream cruise, but I did eventually get do-over[emoji16]

Average water temperature in the Bahamas in February is 72 degrees. It's too cold for this florida girl, but most people don't have a problem at that temperature

We were on the Triumph in May. I can't speak as to USB ports, but the room had the standard outlet at the vanity and another on the wall opposite the bed. I was really surprised!

My husband is type 2 as well. He likes dessert, so he skips potatoes, pasta and rice. And he exercises more so he can eat that dessert!My husband is a Type 2 diabetic and for us, it is all about the choices we make. Neither of us cares for the aftertaste of Splenda or saccharin, so we prefer to make different choices. If the desserts look good, we skip the carbs at dinner and add more veggies. An extra couple of laps around the promenade, a longer after dinner stroll, or skipping those couple of beers might offset the extra at dinner. -
Little French Key in Roatan. It's a beautiful place with outstanding service. This is NOT a Carnival excursion so don't confuse it with Big French Key. For Belize, one of our best experiences was hopping on a short flight over to San Pedro for the day. This was a true adventure on a cruise port day! We had a blast!

We did this flying to Seattle a couple years ago. We gave the empties to the flight attendant. She told us consuming our own during the flight was against some rule or other. Now we stow the empties til we land[emoji16]Don't forget the little airplane bottles....I pack a few racks of those in each suitcase, some singles in my carry on...
On the flight down I have a few in my carry on....same when I fly international.
I'll take a diet coke with some ice please!!
Don't know how many peoples seated next to me were amazed.

Only every time we cruise! I have found them to be reputable.

This! Watching the guest at Guest Services the day the auto grats hit is an option for onboard entertainment[emoji16] btw, love the screen name!We just prepay gratuities so they never "hit" our acct. Every cruise we see people taking them off at guest services. It is awkward and the people doing it always look a bit... well, let's just say desperate type people. When I've witnessed it, CCL staff do not just take off gratuities, they ask a lot of questions about service and it usually gets animated. They also call in managers etc. It doesn't look like anything I would want to deal with. That's probably why you've been told by some people that they are mandatory. Because even though they technically are not mandatory, when you go to have them removed, from what I have witnessed, they treat them as if they are mandatory. Eventually they probably will make them fully mandatory .Sent from my SM-G930P using Forums mobile app

Sorry, that signature hasn't been updated, probably since 2013[emoji16]. We are Platinum on NCL. Were on the Epic November 2017. The indoor bars in the evenings were jam packed!Didn't think that the UBP was alive back in May of 2013, according to your signature. But I will tell you that on my first Escape cruise in July of 2016, my second one in January of 2017 and my third one in September of 2017, the only time getting a drink was a hassle was on white night at the aft of the ship.Sent from my SM-G930P using Forums mobile app

Port of NOLA enforces arrival times. You will have to wait outside if you get there before your designated check in time

We sail both NCL and Carnival. My biggest problem with NCL adding the UBP promo...it takes forever to get a drink! The bartenders are so busy slinging cheap drinks, they barely look up or say hello

Our daughter is an only child so we financed and brought along a friend on many vacations. Always have proper consent for medical treatment, and for cruising any friend was required to have a passport. We always set clear rules and boundaries. Check in times, curfews, and my daughter would roll her eyes and suffer thru our safety briefing. Stay in public areas, don't enter anyone's cabin and dont allow anyone in yours.

Mike, I can't be positive on price but you book it thru Shore excursions and they sell out quick!

We love to rent a cabana. You are not elbow to elbow with people, the servers are fabulous, and you have some privacy [emoji6]

OMG really!!!???Then you can ignore me telling you that Dave & Busters has a ginormous size Candy Crush arcade game. If you have a D&B near you, you definitely don't want to go in and check it out.Sent from my SM-G930P using Forums mobile app
Grand Turk home sweet home Caribbean retreat excursion
in Carnival Cruise Lines

The beach at Home Sweet Home is rocky and dirty. Think stray dogs and all they DO on the beach. The food is pretty good and drinks are plentiful. However, i would not say super kid friendly
