Hello I’m cruising June 2024 arriving into Seward Monday. Planning on taking a Kenai Fjord boat tour then hopping on the train to Anchorage and staying the night in Anchorage. First question….where to stay in Anchorage that doesn’t cost a fortune? We will be renting a car so I’m willing to drive north toward Denali to stay the night. I really don’t want to drive too far out of town because we will be getting in around 10pm from Seward on the train.
I was planning on heading up to Denali on Tuesday morning and take the bus into the National Park 1pm Tuesday. We will be staying the night in the Denali area Tuesday night then back to Anchorage for flight out Wednesday evening. Second question…. Is that a feasible plan? Will I be trying to fit too much in less than two days? Should I not try to go all the way to Denali with that short of a time frame? Would my time better spent going elsewhere out of Anchorage for the short two days? I have been to Alaska twice before and traveled into Denali park but my husband has never been. Also, I am aware that the bus only travels approximately 43 miles into the park due to a landslide blocking the road.
I was also debating just going as far north as Talkeetna. We could take a flight seeing tour of Denali from there and stay Tuesday night. Then we could take our time driving back to Anchorage Wednesday. I feel like I might be missing out if I’m in Alaska and don’t go to Denali National Park. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi I’m new to MSC! I’m looking at 3/23 Meraviglia cruise with stop at Ocean Cay.
Could anyone share a list of available excursions on the island with prices?
Having only sailed on NCL I was wondering if MSC offers an Ultimate arcade package similar to NCL.
Thank you! -
Hello,
I’m new to Carnival. I have only sailed NCL. We love having the ultimate arcade package for my teens. Does Carnival offer anything like that?
Thank you.

When we were on the Getaway 1/2020 there was a great bar in Margaritaville. Is there still a bar in that location now that it is American Diner?

New to Carnival: Is the FTTF pass worth it?

Hi,
Anyone recently been to Harvest Caye and have info on the zipline?
-
Trying to refresh the page to see if anyone will answer-Thanks

I was wondering the same thing! I can see parasailing, kayak and paddleboard rentals on the island, but no zipline????

Questing about this....
Getaway/Jan: Our room has dropped $500 and my travel agent called NCL and nothing was offered. Do I need to contact NCL directly? Or does my travel agent need to call again and ask for either a room upgrade or OBC?

I'm definitely going to get this for our stateroom - love that it is just one charge to be shared. However, I don't think I'll have them put it on my card; hoping the pass can be put on my 14 year old son's card...I would assume so? then he and my 11 year old can fight over it in the arcade while I'm having a mojito somewhere else on the ship!
Haha, Yes you can put it on your sons card. I just purchased it yesterday and put it in my 14 year old sons name and thinking the same thing that he and his 10 year old sister can fight over it! So funny!

So it does include pool and darts in O'Sheahans too? If so that is awesome! How much are those normally a game?
-
Thanks so much for the info!!
We are 55 days out and it just showed up on my NCL page as an option to buy about a week or so ago. I have been checking often to see if its available.

Hi just checking to see if anyone has purchased the arcade package and is it worth it? I will be on Getaway in January for 9 days and it is $160. It says that it can be used on any arcade game with green colored swipes. What type of games have the green colored swipes? Just curious what type games they have available. Thanks!

Hi,
Right now we are booked in family balcony and was wondering if it is worth it to upgrade to the mini-suite. I believe that I read the only difference in the two categories was the size of the bathroom. Is that true? Is the actual room the same size or are there any other perks of the mini-suite compared to a regular family balcony room?
Thanks!
-
oh ok sorry!
-
I think all the balcony rooms have a pullman bed that drops down from the celing above the sofa as well. But not exactly sure.......

I know it is a $14.95 charge but does anyone know if you can go with 2 people and share an entree for $14.95 for both diners. Or is it always just $14.95 per person even if you share. I would be willing to go with my husband for lunch and just share nachos or something if is just $14.95 per entree due to the location, looks like a fun part of the ship.
Also if we have the drink package can we just go to the bar and order drinks there without eating? Thanks!

How much is arcade package? Thanks!

Question about Margaritaville......

When you get to the day of the cruise the app will change completely. It will have a place at the bottom that says "I'm on board". When you click that it will give you the option of signing up for the $10 messaging. One note on that... I was sharing an account with my husband up until that point. In order to message each other, you will EACH need to have an account. It was easy for him to set it up at that point. I hope that helps!
Yes that helps a ton! I wondered if we all would have to get the app and pay $10 separately. With my husband and 2 kids I need all of us to have the app on our phones to message each another on the ship.

Great review! Thanks so much for sharing! So sorry about missing the ports. 😞
Quick question: I have the NCL app on my phone but how and when do you pay the $10 to have the messaging capabilities? We are not cruising until Jan so my husband seems to think it is right before the cruise? Any advice would be helpful, Thanks!

Is there any beaches within walking distance to the port in Ocho Rios?

We sail in January and I have been thinking about buying $20-$50 in OBC each week or 2 just so that when we get on the boat we will have it and it wont seem like such a big hit in the pocketbook to pay at the end for on board expenses. What all can we use it on besides drinks, excursions and specialty dining? Can you use it in gift shop or casino? Also can you use it toward the end of the cruise gratuity. It is nice to know if we dont use it we can get it back. That was one reason I have not added any $ on our account yet because I wasnt sure if you get back $ you didnt use after the cruise. Thanks!

I planned on renting from Turo which I understand you just have to Uber to the location of the car and pick it up at anytime you have arranged prior.
