Thank you everyone for the information and pictures this week!

For anyone who has now sailed ICON, can you tell me how long it was to disembark when you returned to Miami?  Wondering what time to have a car arrive for pickup to the airport? Thank you!

We are arriving a day early in December into LAX and we would like to be picked up at the airport and do a tour before being dropped off at our San Pedro hotel.  Any suggestions?

I have searched for this answer and I am not finding any threads.  It has been years since I have sailed NCL.  In the evening, at the complimentary dining venues, (Joy & Bliss) are there no longer ANY set dining times?  We just show up and randomly get seated and served by different wait staff nightly?  Thank you for your responses.

Thank You!

Thank You for the quick response!

Thank you!!  If purchased separately would you remember the cost?  I thought it was around $3 a soda

It has been awhile since I have cruised on NCL.  Can someone tell me if the soda package is by a sticker on your card, a new card or a soda mug?  Thank you!

Thank you! I know the company we booked with stated that we were their last charter, still hope to see some whales!

Has anyone recently been on a whale watching tour in the Bay of Fundy? Just wondering how regular the siting have been in the past few weeks.

thank you for the response. I have not been to this port so I did not know the airport was so close.

We have credit cards that do not charge for the exchange rate. Unless you prefer cash, I would use a credit card when possible.

When we dock back in Boston after our cruise, we are a group of 10 that will need to to head back to the airport for a 12:30 flight. Is there a company in Boston that I can prearrange a quick pickup for a group of that size?

Thank you!

We are traveling on the Serenade of the Seas in October. We are stopping in Halifax, Saint John, Bar Harbor, Rockland and Portland. It is my understanding that Bar Harbor is the only port we will have a tender. Is that correct? Thank you in advance!

Yes we did like it. It has been a several years but the pool was nice and very easy access to the beach. There was a little food/drink hut on the beach but we ate inside at the buffet. There were several areas to sit around the pool and a lot of pretty flowers in bloom. They had volleyball and an area where people we swinging on a trapeze. Not sure if that is still there.

We were on Rhapsody March 18-25. Plenty of live music (Centrum, Shall We Dance, Pool, etc). Many things to do. Only the boring are bored!

No need to be rude! This forum is about opinions, and apparently as they say, everyone has one.

I'm on Rhapsody in October. I would love to hear more feedback about the ship and the crew.

I will be happy to share more information when I get home. Sadly some people have to state mean comments. Everyone has different options they are looking for on their cruise.

How was Costa Maya? How about Key West? Wasn't this "all about the ports" for you?

The ports were great as always and we enjoyed the beautiful weather.

No live music around the ship?

I am on the ship now. I was concerned because I saw so little info. Now I know why. NOTHING to do on here. This is a spring break time. Last night in the theater...Ballroom Dancing show...ugh. They do not have satellite tv so on big screen & in rooms it is a constant loop. So many, many things I do not like about this ship. Look for another option!

Thank you. I have received the specials in emails but the only deals are soda combined with internet. Thank you for the smoking information.

We will be cruising this March and since I have never cruised RC can someone answer these please? I have a sister who smokes so locations for her other than casino to smoke. Also another wants to drink soft drinks so is there an advantage to buying the package before sailing? Thank you in advance.

Hi, thanks again for the advice. I'm defo not going to be leaving it late late. I am tied to the school holidays and want this particular itinerary. I just wanted to know if I should book right now or maybe leave it till this wave season between Jan and March that I've heard about.

I have two cruises booked with RC in 2018. I put down my deposit early because I too wanted these specific dates. I have called back twice and they kindly gave me a better price and more on board credit just because there was a better deal that day.
