Thank you.

Anyone know who the Concierge is on the Dawn now? Thank you in advance.

Do you have the insurance added to your original booking? Going from a balcony to a suite the insurance is quite a bit more as well. Are you before or after final payment?

That is how we have always received it as well. Although it does not say shrimp cocktail. So I am wondering if we can get it as a shrimp cocktail instead of the shrimp louie?

Was it all mixed in with the thousand island dressing?

Hello. Wondering if anyone has an opinion of the Hyatt Place Downtown vs The Grand Hyatt Tampa Bay. What if any restaurants are in walking distance. Also the proximity to the the Port of Tampa. Not sure of the differences so any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

I am so enjoying your day to day review. Thank you so much for taking us along on your journey. It makes it easier to pass the time until my cruise day is here.

Enjoying your review. I am living vicariously through your travels. I can't wait to be back on the beautiful Dawn. The countdown continues. Enjoy every moment.

I am guessing you are staying at the fairly new Hyatt Place Downtown. About 1/2 mile from cruise port. I would love to know what you think and if there are any restaurants near by as we will be staying there next month. We Love the Dawn. Really can't wait to be back on her. I will be following along with your live review. Thank you for doing this. Safe travels & enjoy your cruise!

Thank you

That is wonderful to hear. Sounds like back to the good days of cruising and able to enjoy a great dinner companion! My cruise can't get here soon enough! Do you happen to know who the concierge is as well?

Thank you so much. I am now more excited as I will see them both soon. 2 wonderful people. Have cruised with both several times... 🙂

Also, if you went to the Meet & Greet they usually have cards that have who the staff members are. Maybe you can let us know. If you did not attend one maybe you know who is Cruise Director, General Manager & Concierge. Also, which terminal in Tampa did you board? Thank you...

Seeing as though there is a new thread.... Does anyone know who is currently on the DAWN? Would love to know who is the GM/HD. Also the Concierge if anyone knows. Thank you...

Enjoy your cruise. If you can find out who the GM/HD is on board I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

If you have a cruise booked you can see the menu for Cagney's. Go to Cagney's click on view menu. I have been able to see all the new menus.

They can keep the foie gras as my DH won't want that...lol Glad to see not on Cagney's menu and the upcharge for crab cakes did go away. I found the menus on the ncl site. We have a cruise booked so when I go to explore dining when you look at the different restaurants there is a link for view menu. They are sample menus but all of them are now updated for 2023. Hmm may have to go to Cagney's 3 times and no LeBistro. lol Thank you everyone.

Just noticed at LeBistro there is now a 10.00 upcharge for the tenderloin. Do you know if that is waived with either dining package SDP or Platinum voucher? Seems strange to have an upcharge as it never has before. Thank you

mking8288 thank you for the info. I hope he is just on vacation. We don't cruise for a few months but I will report back after the cruise.

Do you know when Hugo is on the Dawn until? And does Alain come back on?

WOW! Took a little bit but finally found this thread.. Coming into a new year and was wondering if anyone knows who the GM & Concierge will be on the Dawn within the next few months. Heading out in March and would love to know who will be on the ship. Thank you!

Thank you bajathree as I didn't realize there was that much to do close to the hotel. Especially where we will not have a car so we will be walking. I am going to now research these places.

Thank you for your imput. I haven't stayed in Tampa. Usually stay in Disney and in the past had transportation to the port. Things changed so now we will stay in Tampa. I thought the Hyatt Place as it is close to the port. However, our flight gets us in at around 10am. Not sure what there is to do in the area. We will not have a car so we will be walking. Does anyone know if there is restaurants close by in walking distance? I am going to check with the hotel to see if we can check in early or at least see if they have a place to store luggage. Also, does anyone know how close the airport is to the hotel?

Hello all, Has anyone stayed here at the Hyatt Downtown Tampa? Wondering how far it is from the port of Tampa. Is it a good choice for a 1 night stay? Thank you in advance for any information.

Thank you for posting the menus. Looks like they made a few changes. Exciting! Can’t wait to be back on the Dawn!
