I just spent a month in The Philippines.   All you need is your passport and proof of vaccination.  If you’re not vaccinated I am not sure what you need, but that is always changing.  You can stay in Philippines for 30 days with no visa.   Clark is a very new, nice airport. When going to Manila give yourself plenty of time, the traffic is terrible.  It took my daughter 4 hours to go from near Angeles City to Manila airport.  It’s around 60-70 miles. 

Any reviews for Therapy Charters?  Or any suggestions for swimming/snorkeling with turtles.  Would like to find a private tour or very small group tour.  

I have switched people around on line with no issues.   Just went to edit and changed the name.   Originally we had my husband/son in a room and my daughter/me in another.   My daughter got married so I changed my name to her new husbands, my sons name to mine and my lucky son gets a single.   This was all done before final payment, not sure if it’s as easy after.

They are different, both good, HMC is superior 

I guess I didn’t word my question well.  Do I pick a cabana on the ship or wait until I arrive in port?

Is that the same at Amber Cove? I select onboard ship?  Never had a cabana. 

Thanks so much for your kind responses.  

Never cruised on Carnival and I do not understanding steward service.  Do they only provide it once a day?  Not sure if I will like this, part of cruising is being pampered.

I never thought of doing that but I hope we can!

Thanks for the fun times, but I can’t read it.   

I am sure this has already been asked and answered, but I can’t seem to find it.   On embarkation day what are the dining options for lunch?   Thanks in advance.

I am also curious about this.  It doesn’t seem like enough time to disembark and embark next passengers.  

What is the cost of sushi?  We will be on the Gem.  I see you may not make reservations, is it easy to just walk up and get a seat?

We will be a larger group, 13, and would like to dine some evenings together.  Is there a number to call to make reservations?  We will be on The Gem and this will be for the main dining room.  Thanks in advance.

Thanks so much for the information.   I think this is exactly what we will need.

We have a group going on the Gem and wondered if anyone has had experience with the NCL app.  I see it is $9.95 per phone and am assuming it does not matter the length of cruise.  Are the texts sent on time, are there any hidden charges?   

I have cruised on other lines that have anytime dining but unsure of NCL.  From what I have read it seems like I need to make reservations ahead of time or plan on an hour or more wait.   On another line we just walked up to the MDR and we’re seat in 5 minutes or less. So my question is, do I need to make reservations before boarding?  (Kind of defeats freestyle)  We will be on the Gem.  

Thanks for all the info.  I am just not going to worry about it and try to arrive at the terminal around 10:30.  

Departure is March 8, 2019, on the Gem.  It arrives at port at 10am and we depart at 4pm.  My plan is to be coming from Connecticut unless weather gets in the way and then I will be coming from Michigan.     Good to know I don’t have to worry.

Is there ever a time when the parking lot is full?  Do I need to have a second option just in case?
