Another question, this cruise goes to GSC 2 times and Nassau one day. I'm reluctant to book after seeing how often GSC is cancelled. I wouldn't want to get stuck only going to Nassau this entire cruise. Does anyone know how the seas are in Bahamas in mid April?

There will be no problems getting to GSC on this cruise

Sometimes a $20 handshake helps 😉

Fireball

Six was a fun show.  You can learn some history

BJ is crappy on the ship unless $50/hand.  Less is continuous shuffle machines.  3 card likely will be $5 or $10 min .  Slots mostly penny with ability to bet $10/$12 pull depending on slot.  They do have some more traditional 3 reel at $1/$5 credit machines.

Here is my story.  Got my air at 72 days out for my April cruise

Home Departure City:   ATL (Atlanta)

Arrival/Destination City:  MCO (Orlando)

Airline(s) used:   Delta

Number of Connections:   0

Outbound Flight Departure:  6:45 AM / 8:11 AM

Return Departure City:  MCO (Orlando)

Destination:  ATL (Atlanta)

Airline used:  Delta

Number of Connections:  0

Inbound Flight Times:  1:22 PM / 2:56 PM

Did you pay for a Deviation:   NO

Number of days Prior to Departure flights were ticketed:  72 days

Now here is the kicker.  When I got my email last night my return flight was for 8:59 PM / 10:34 PM.  Well I am travelling with my 3 yr old grandson (4 total of us on 2 ressies).  Delta flies every hour back and forth ATL -MCO.  So I called this morning, they said they can't change it because it is the Free Air Promo.  I said I get that but I get off the ship at 7am, airport by 8am on NCL shuttle, airline wont take my luggage until 4 hours before flight,  so I sit at the airport for 12 hours with a 3 year old???.  She said let me see what I can do.  5 mins later I had a reasonable flight time.  Lucky me 🙂

So other than the discount no other perks yet.  Now if you played alot at Caesars properties they have "free cruise vouchers" as a promo fairly often.  Typically that gets you a free inside cabin with one perk (free at sea offer) based on your land play.  You still pay taxes and port fees and also a $20/day admin fee but still is better than a 20% discount.

While you gamble on the ship, just like you do in Vegas, make sure they rate your  table play properly and use your card in slots.  Last night of the cruise ask the casino host if they can comp any of your charges (gift shop, specialty dining, photos, etc)  They may credit you something.

After your cruise, call CAS and see what your play has earned you going forward.  Find a cruise you may want to take and ask what class of room you qualify for.   You can see from my signature I cruise alot and I have gotten all of the NCL ones comped by CAS after my initial cruise from a land based offer.

Have fun!!!!!!!!!!!!

Google "reel dreams sport fishing bahamas reviews"

 

Trip Advisor has almost 300 reviews.    Enjoy.  It looks like a lot of fun.

hmmmm i saw 38 reviews so i was worried cause 37 were 5* so i thought maybe fake

Did you end up using them?  I am looking at them in April 2020

Sounds like you need to call NCL direct as your TA has bad information.  You might even call Casinos at Sea if you have gambled before on NCL or a Caesars rewards member you may qualify for additional discounts

CN LIte are like gold.  Very rare.  I have submitted a request to NCL that they be sold on all ships not just Sun & Sky.  Other ships do short sailings every so often to fill in a 10 or 11 day sailing or before/after a re position sailing 

It was working in August all week and was wonderful

Park at the port for easy access

I am running the pub crawl on our Breakaway cruise. I am making it a poker pub crawl. Would love to hear any suggestions from anyone who has done this before. Thanks

Either keep your group small or pre-arrange 2 or 3 drinks to choose at each bar.  You show up with 25 people and by the time #25 gets his/her drink the first 10 will be ready for the next stop

Im doing the NCL Joy in June for my 1st Alaska cruise

I do wish they would add more.
