Pre-Booking Excursions Less than $50
ggTexasGal replied to JandC_Cruising's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
I believe distinctions exist between the Kayak rentals and Paddleboard rentals... The kayaks are an actual guided "tour," therefore, the discount is allowed. Paddle boards are rented for individual use, without being on a "guided tour". Unfortunately, NCL hasn't gotten their website set correctly for the differences between tours and non-discounted equipment rentals. 🤔😒 -

To be just a bit more specific about the difference, Paddle Boards and Kayaks are considered "Equipment Rentals" and are, therefore, NOT eligible for an excursion credit. -

I do not have that problem if I do searches when not logged-in to my account. Or, I search "incognito." But, in either case, I always clear my search engine afterwards!

POC Change on NCL's Breakaway 9-1-24 ???
ggTexasGal replied to SPNJHockey's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
@SPNJHockey and @undecided1, since you are still outside of 120 days until Final Payment, it is not too late to cancel the cruise for a full refund. -
Pre-cruise watch the video (maybe endless emails to watch it)! Once onboard the ship, go to your Assembly Station (as shown on your key-card), check-in with person in green cap and vest. Done!

If you know where and when you will want to eat, make yourself notes of when and which restaurants. (You do not need to make them in date order!!! However, do start with any that require a fee, and then get as many done as possible.) If not in the Haven/Suites, upper Latitudes, you might run into some "availability" issues for day/times you want, due to the fact they have already been able to book prior to 120 days. I hope some of this info is helpful for you.

Parking Lot price increases in Galveston
ggTexasGal replied to nlktx49's topic in Gulf Coast Departures
Interesting information. (I suppose that could happen easily enough during heavy rains.) I guess we were very lucky in January for our one week cruise, as we had no rain during our embarkation and disembarkation days. Because of our experience this year, we will be using them again in January for a two week cruise. Hopefully, we'll be lucky then also! -
If you have your heart set on certain restaurants on certain days &/or times, you probably will benefit from staying up past midnight to make the reservations. Be sure to book any "Set-Fee" restaurants (such as: Moderno) first, before booking the rest, otherwise you will be charged up-front.
