That's what happened to us. Our price dropped so they submitted it and told us it would be a FCC not OBC. We then received an email saying that they reviewed it and the price drop was not the same for the offer we booked on so not FCC or anything.

No, haven't actually received word that we will skip it, but it will not surprise me if we did. And don't hold your breath for DR as that will probably be skipped as well.

We are on the 1-15-23 sailing and I read in another post that Kinky Boots contract with the performers ends 1-5-23 and it was not renewed so as of now, nothing is replacing it. In the app for entertainment on our sailing, it just lists Choir of Man and the comedy club as well as the Cavern Club.

I have commented in another thread about this very thing. NCL knows but plays the "unforeseen" card to save face. We are going on the Encore 1-15-23 and I have been seeing alot about this and the changes recently. I don't have issues with the changes but just be upfront about them. Don't play the "oh gee guess we will not be able to dock there today!" card when they in fact know before hand that we aren't docking there due to the issues with the ports in DR.

Our upcoming trip (Jan15th) shows a flip flopped itinerary on the ports schedules than from what NCL has for us. NCL says we are going to GSC first and the port schedules have us going there the last day. Also for DR shows 4 ships in port with 2 being the Carnival Celebration and HAL Nieuw Statendam and the Encore and Getaway also being there the same day. If both the Encore and Getaway can't dock at Amber and Taino Bay not an option because of the size, I am guessing we will be "Cancelled" and they will either then tell us about the flip flopping itinerary then instead of now even though they know already that we won't be docking there. I would rather they be upfront with us and tell us now rather than making it look like they had no idea and springing it on us like " Oh my gosh we are so sorry but it looks like we won't be able to dock today!" To me it just seems kind of shady to do folks that way.

Woohoo! We leave Saturday and I am thrilled!

We are on that cruise as well and when I called I was told very adamantly, that the home proctored tests will NOT be accepted. You can see why this is so confusing.....

I hadn't had to pay anything at all up until now. The pharmacist I spoke to said "it has to do with how you fill out the online health questionnaire as to if you get charged as insurance won't cover it if it is for travel or a cruise". So maybe there is a way to take it for like work or something in the questionnaire. But we are kind of in that grey area window where we cruise Sept. 3rd so it's getting down to the wire and just want to know what we can do to provide that negative test and how much that's going to cost us.

Its sure is confusing. Called my local CVS and Walgreens and was told that unless it is for medical purpose, their test now cost $128 at Walgreens and $208 at CVS. 😲

I just called MSC and asked about the Biomax home proctored test and she said no, no home proctored tests will be accepted now but to check the website daily for any changes to the current heath and safety measures.
