When I am done with each straw I will feed it to a puppy.

i thought this thread was about me getting up in the morning

lmfao :')

There's a bunch of options depending on what ship you go on. Most have a buffet and at least two free sit down restaurants. Then they also have restaurants that you have to pay extra for.. things like Steakhouse, Italian, French, seafood... Etc. Go on NCL website and look it up by whichever ship you plan on boarding.

Let me guess you are going to make a scene passing them out and get tossed off the ship first port. :rolleyes:

Never happen. I'm like a ninja. They'll never catch me.

Throwing the servers a buck or 2 goes a long way. And you will DEFINITELY get better service.

I want straws!! I'm starting a movement for all of us plastic straw people.

#strawmetoo

I am going to bring a supply of straws on board and sell them like crack to the drinkers. Should be able to pay for at least one excursion that way. "Heh kid, the first straw is on me but you got to pay for the rest". By the end of the cruise I will be getting $10 a straw.

LMFAO, that's amazing!! At least some people on these forums have a sense of humor! :')

The great Straw-Gate of 2018..

Last time I got a Passionate Kiss from a bartender, my wife saw caught us and I was almost divorced!

Reading this while drinking a jack and coke with a PLASTIC STRAW

I will bring my own PLASTIC straws on my next cruise. Bags and bags of em!!

YESSS, another straw thread!!

Ummmmm, khakis?

Question, do you tip for each drink if you have the beverage package? I assume you get a little receipt thing to fill out with cabin # or something, with a line on it for tip. Do you add on a tip or does the staff know you already prepaid that? Sorry - just trying to understand & do the right thing.

Absolutely not necessary to add a tip each drink, HOWEVER, slipping the server a dollar every once in a while might be a good idea, they tend to remember who tips, and they will go out of their way to serve you.

Absolutely not

I know it can be a crapshoot in the Atlantic

You answered your own question. I have been on several Bermuda cruises in May. I have had sea days in the low 90's, and sea days in the low 50's.. can't ever tell!

Sorry we only ate at the specialty restaurants so I cannot comment on the MDR. We are not big gamblers, but we did a few slots and the best ones were in the smoking section. The waterfront had nice quiet areas and bars with music and happy people. We did enjoy the waterfront a lot.

Thanks for the info!

Couple questions if you don't mind?

-How was the food in the MDR's?

-How was the casino?

-How is the waterfront decks' bar scene?

Thanks!

The reason NCL removed the lobster is obvious.. It's for "our convenience"...

Would you take a free cruise out of Boston or Miami during the week 4th of July ? I'm pretty sure all ships from all ports will be packed during the Summer.

Nope. Been on 10 cruises, and not a single one in June/July/August. Too many kids. No thanks.

Most of the newer ships are going 5 to even 6.5 feet deep and it's for a reason ..... a good reason. Keeping the pools deeper keeps the drunks out of the pool so they are used for swimming and not for standing in with drinks while people pi$$ in them. Pools are for swimming, not for loud mouth drunks to stand in for 5 hours with 4 buckets of beer next to them. I love this trend. MSC Seaside was all 6 feet and it was used for pool activities and the drunks stayed by the bar. All cruise lines should follow this trend.....

LOL you sound like an absolute pleasure to cruise with.. Sheeeeesh! :eek::eek:

I like to lay around the pool so when/if I get hot, it's easy access to take a quick dip.. A pretty simple idea, really.
