Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. How did you find Disney? I've never tried them but heard they are really nice. What did you think of the food? How did you like Hawaii? It's on my bucket list but first is Alaska. Totally agree cruising is a great time no matter where you go or what line.
  2. Wow! talk about extremely quick help. thank you so much!!
  3. this link only shows the benefits but not the actual form. would you happen to know where i can find the form? greatly appreciate all help. thank you!
  4. Where do you get this info for the OBC with NCL? Im sure there are different amounts for different lengths of cruises, etc. My sept one is only 5 nights while my march one is 8 nights. Where do I get info about NCL shareholder benefits? thank you again for any and all help.
  5. I have NEVER tried Carnival. Some people like it, you couldnt get me on it. NOPE. I tried Princess once-HATED IT. Service was horrible, food was hit or miss. I first tried Celebrity-nice, fancy, crazy best service but boring and too old style cruising for me. no entertainment-wth? I tried Royal Caribbean but alot of stuff is good for kids and they are a bit expensive for rooms when I can get a better room on NCL for cheaper. They have a type of freestyle dining but its just not the same and they have dress up nights, etc. I don't wanna dress up 😞. However, RCI food is to die for... Now, NCL? they have it ALL-for me! No dressing up 🙂, eat when and with whom i want essentially allowing me to make my own itinerary. Plus, fun entertainment for all ages and reasonably priced rooms. Food is especially really good in the specialty restaurants and basically that's all I eat in. NCL is my second home. BOOM! Guess who I am staying with ?? LOL LOL All that being said, yeah Im going to buy the NCL stock and cross my fingers that NCL will allow me to use for this cruise, if not, i got september's cruise and next year 2023 March cruise and whatever else I book for next year after that one. Gotta do something for my 50th 🙂!!!! Just gotta figure what/where.
  6. oh i almost forgot to respond to you. i only cruise now with NCL. I am platinum but will be saphire on my cruise in september so yeah i cruise alot with them and my plan is to stick with them because of my benefits AND the freestyle cruising (dinner schedules and dressing up are not my priorities when vacationing). I just want to thank you for your advice as well. very much appreciated!! 🙂
  7. LOL Not knowing anything about stocks, there is one thing I do know, if a company's stock tanks to 0.00, the company will not exist anymore. is that correct? and if that is correct, I do not EVER foresee NCL going to 0.00. At least not in the next few years as more and more people begin to enjoy cruising. I began cruising in 2003 and there is such as huge difference in cruising now and so many more people go, its gotten to be an extremely popular way of vacation, especially for families. But I digress... anything is possible. That being said, perhaps i was rushing into this a bit and finding that i more than probable will be too late for the OBC for this upcoming cruise, perhaps I should pull in the reigns and hold the horses and think about things. However, I am thrilled that I opened the E*trade account because I feel like if I am going to gamble money away, I rather it be in the market than in some machine in AC or Vegas or well, a cruiseship. So, thank you all for the abundance of information and getting me off to a better start in life even if i am a little bit older to get into it, better late than never. THANK YOU!!!!! from the bottom of my heart...
  8. of course, that's a given. however, if it does, that means i lost everything and there is nothing? how does that work then?
  9. Ok so believe it or not I just actually started an e*trade account. What is the deadline of purchase to get on board credit? My cruise is next weekend. I haven't purchased just yet. Also who do I call or email with the purchase info?
  10. Here's what might be a silly question. If I'm buying a 100 shares at $11 and it sinks to $7 a share and I have zero plans to sell, I'll always get the $100 on board credit right? I know ncl can fluctuate and go down to $7 people talked about it last year. However, as long as I remain in the long run I will always own 100 shares always giving me the $100 on board credit right?
  11. wow! this is all such incredible advice. ok, so, this will be my 2nd cruise next weekend for this year but I have another booked for this year and another next year. the plan is to do about 3 cruises a year. i dont plan on jumping out so quick because the plan is to use it for the OBC which is likely to be $300 a year. yes, it will take me almost 4 years to get my money back but wouldnt that be worth it? now, are there fees to buy stock or hold a stock? because that will offset my OBC making the value less if you know what I mean. yes, this will be my very, very first stock purchase.
  12. how do i buy NCL stock? I have no clue about stock stuff at all!!! 😞
