JohnBoy in NC

Looking forward to rocking with y’all May 2025!

How was the live music (bands/musicians)?

In the Daily above (first sea day-jazz tribute) it says complimentary. We haven’t done it before ourselves but will be on the ship in 5 weeks (interested in seeing how folks liked it or not etc)

Based on prior NCL history-looks promising. Using the way back time machine, NCL posted this response in their FAQs from April 2021-August 2021: Yes, if a guest has an active reservation as of April 5, 2021 for a cruise with a vaccination requirement (currently all sailings through October 31, 2021), that the guest is unable to comply with; guest will be permitted to apply the full value of all amounts paid to a new future cruise credit or, at their  discretion, be provided a cash refund in an amount equal to their original cash payment by visiting https://www.ncl.com/case-submission. For reservations that were made on or after April 6, 2021 the refund amount will be subject to Norwegian’s cancelation fee policy communicated to our guests at time of booking and can be found on our website https://www.ncl.com/about/cancellation-fee-schedule  

My question now (maybe I should pose in a separate new post) is at final payment, I agree to the cruise contract terms which reference the website Covid policy. What happens if NCL updates the policy to require say, original shots plus 2 boosters etc by the time of my sailing and thus changing the terms agreed to at final payment. Is someone eligible for a refund because they don’t agree to the NEW terms of requirements for embarkation that have now been changed?

Are you sure this would happen? (NCL refunding you if they change their vaxx policy). I have a few weeks to decide before making final payment for Jan cruise. thanks

In the same boat as you—booked 2 weeks later at the end of January. Very hopeful to be able to cruise again but will wait to the last minute to decide at final payment deadline. I am hoping that they will drop the testing requirements as well since CDC relaxed their suggestions recently (no need to screen if no symptoms and unvaxxed and vaxxed are treated equally). Need to stop using the V word anyway.
