  1. Being from NY, this is always a problem. But I will try Fine Cuts on my next sailing on Ascent.
  2. As soon as you board the ship head to your station and they will scan your Xpress pass. You can watch the video before you get to port, make sure to check all passengers on list. Then head to your cabin and pick up your sea pass, make sure every thing is correct, especially if you have a drink package.
  3. I was on the Apex Feb 11 sailing, on a sky suite, had an 11am check in time got to port around 10:40am had no problem checking in. Porters outside took our luggage and we were checked in less than 5 minutes. Had to wait on lounge having mimosa till 11 o'clock to board the ship.
  4. Thank you Rocketman, will have to research TA and see what they can offer. I do get the 10% military discount and the shareholder benefit, Im sure I can have them apply it to any reservation.
  5. I haven't found a TA that can offer me anything more than what the cruise line offers on their website. For that reason I do my own bookings.
  6. It was an easy walk, when you exit the port, you will see the sheraton hotel right in front and a wallgreens, turn left and walk till you see the old stone wall and follow along to el Morro, its about a 20 minutes walk.
  7. Does Port Everglades allows both Uber and Lyft? In the Port of Galveston Lyft is the port preferred ride, Uber has to drop you off out by the gate.
  8. If you purchase the package you get a few dollars off and you have to book on board. I decided to pay the regular price and did reservations on the app, I like to select date and time, I think its worth a few extra dollars.
  9. Will be on the Apex in 2 week, we have S1 category. If I had to choose I would go with deck 12. The magic carpet move up and down, but I think after 5pm stay on Deck 5 for a couple of hrs, I would say less noise on deck 12, plus luminae is on same deck.
  10. Excellent, this is what we are planning on doing. We have the premium drinks package, so we can order wine from our package.
  11. You have to pay the 20% gratuity on the free at sea drink package, but you have the option of declining any of the free at sea promotion at booking. But regardless whenever you get a drink you'll still have a 20% gratuity added to your bill.
  12. Absolutely, I purchased the chef table and 2 specialty dinners, gratuities were added to my purchase.
  13. Can you send your butler to my cabin for my cruise on February, thanks.
  14. Thank you for the recommendations, psuboater.
  15. Question, we are arriving at SeaTac around 11 am, 2 days prior to cruise on September 2023. This will be our first time in Seattle. We are very active and can walk around no problem. After dropping our luggage at hotel, we are planning to explore Pike Place market grab a lite lunch and possibly grab dinner there as well. Looking for other attractions recommendations for the 2nd day, also the best way to get around if uber or light rail. All recommendations are welcome and Thanks in advanced.
  16. Don't think you'll get the discount after final payment. You have to sign in to NCL account and get verified as a vet with ID.me. Once verified the discount will be applied to any future booking.
  17. You place your order from a tablet (similar concept as endulge) and food come out different intervals, some faster than others. We ordered 2 dishes at a time and shared.
  18. As soon as you board the ship, its on level 6 by theater entrance, just ask as soon as you enter.
  19. Im with complawyer, I like booking my own flights. It cost more but at least you know that you won't be taking 3 flights or 38 hrs to get to your destination. Venice is a nice city to visit, If you stay there a couple of days do your research on hotels, lot of stairs from island to island, it can be a pain going up and down stairs with luggage. We stood walking distance to main train station and in front of the station there was a bus that took us strait to the airport (VCE). Also the gondola ride on the grand canal is a must, just get your bubbly ahead of time, Enjoy!
  20. Im sorry, the chocolate sundae is from the local bar and grill. At food republic the lamb and sushi were delicious. With the dinning plan you are allow 4 plates per person.
  21. Burgers are pretty good, kept going back for lunch and always had to get the chocolate sundae for dessert, its delicious.
  22. I dream of this, monthly cruise. Got off the Prima last month, Celebrity Apex in February, NCL Encore September and Celebrity Ascent in December.
  23. You are almost there, with the excitement pour yourself a cocktail from time to time. You will have a great time on the Prima.
