  1. For those NCL cruises (Pearl - May) that stay in Bermuda on Sunday and Monday night (at the Naval shipyard), do you go off the ship saying 7pm to midnight?  Is many places open that late or ferry?

  2. Past cruiser and have gone on the larger ships like Breakaway Plus or Oasis class. I am going on the Pearl in May. Anything different about experiences I may or may not have going to a smaller ship?   Is the dinner menu in the MDR changed to this same menu every night I see for the Prima?  Does it feel crowded in the pool area?  Any tips from those that have experienced this would be appreciated. 
     

    Do they have the Room upgrade process?

  3. Looking to book the Pearl in May out of Boston going to Bermuda.   I do not see Spa Balcony Rooms and was wondering if that is an option as it is on most of the NCL bigger ships.  Do you just purchase a room and go to the Spa and purchase a thermal pass?  If so, anyone previously done that and how much you played.  The thermal spa does look decent as like the other ships, just has the saunas and steam rooms separate for men and women.  

  4. Looking at this cruise on Prima as well as the 14 day one that goes a month later.  We are wanting to see "hopefully " the northern lights. Yes it is dependent on weather and such, but the later one has a better chance. The fjords are the other reason.  
     

    I was hoping that during the evening on either of these cruises that after midnight you could just sit on the top deck and witness the northern lights. 

  5. Do you see it from the cruise boat say in the middle of the night?  Or do you have to be on land.   I am aware of now another cruise in Late September that might be better.  The cruise goes over ports during the day and between ports at night. With artificial lights from the cruise ship make it harder. To see?

    We are thinking about taking a cruise from London to Iceland next August (second week in August). We will be in Iceland four days.  I see in google that the best time to see the northern lights is September to April. The days are like 16 hours of Sunlight, any chance in August to see the lights?

  7. Family of 10 got 5 different flights with 3 airlines Charlotte,Atlanta,Burlington) and all flights got us to and from where we were going and delivered 100% satisfaction.  We all wanted to have nonstop flights, but we didn't. Felt like was were things would start to go wrong and it didn't. We are on the Breakaway tomorrow and thing are great.  No more stress which to be honest is self imposed. I would day having one day leadtime is smart.
