The Sculpture Park is approximately 1/4 of Deck 8, Starboard, Mid. Attached are some photos my DH (retired bronze sculpture) took last November while onboard PRIMA. You can tell how large they are by comparing the windows and doors in the background. (The wooden "wavey wall" might be on the Port side of the ship (I just don't remember).

The Lagoon Villa is a great place to relax and enjoy a more peaceful area of GSC, without the crowds and with less noise. My husband loves to fish, and he loves to snorkel. But he didn't even try to do either while we were enjoying our Villa. However, trying to do either of those things requires one to leave the confines of Silver Cove. Yes, there is a "snorkel park" off the shore of the main beach (just after the tendering area). It's pleasant, but not "great"! A fishing excursion "might" be offered, but I don't remember seeing any.

Perhaps this "sample" NCL flyer will give you an idea of what is available on each of the two different packages available: (NOTE: "subject to change") https://www.ncl.com/sites/default/files/790164-BEV_Package_Flyer_UOBP_PPBP_Update_FINAL_2_6_23_1.pdf

Regardless of how you purchase (AmEx, Visa, Discover, etc.), if you do not spend" all of your OBC while onboard, prior to disembarkation, you will be asked to go to customer service and get a CASH refund!

I found Lavender sugar (available in small pouch). I like to rim my martini glass with it for the added flavor of lavender.

The Free at Sea Pkg is for Guests 1& 2 only, and are not transferable!

For anybody who has not found this, here is a link for comparing the beverage packages. (NOTE: dated January 2023... discrepancies/variations do tend to exist on ships!!!) https://www.ncl.com/sites/default/files/790164-BEV_Package_Flyer_UOBP_PPBP_Update_FINAL_2_6_23_1.pdf

Specialty Coffees are included in the PREMIUM PLUS package only.

No! "Specialty waters" are only included in the Premium Plus drink package (or FAS UP pkg). For new to NCL customers... to further clarify the above statement, the bottles in the refrigerator in the room are NOT included in either package!

Recently on the Bliss: Free at Sea meals receive 1 App, 1 soup OR 1 Salad, 1 Entre w/ 2 sides (might have upcharge), and dessert. Platinum meals receive 1 App or 1 Soup, or 1 Salad, 1 Entre w/sides, and 1 dessert.

Maybe this site will be helpful. Good luck to your group! https://www.rome2rio.com/s/Orlando/Miami

An alternate option might be IF your ship has Food Republic, you could use two vouchers to share four selections each between the three of you. Where you can find Food Republic: Norwegian Bliss, Norwegian Escape, Norwegian Joy, Norwegian Prima and Norwegian Viva

Agreeing with @julig22, as that gives each of the three of you twice. You and he can then go to two more specialty restaurants. However, if you have "mom" along, you would either need to pay ala carte for her, or, purchase a two-meal dining package for her. Below is a link for the pricing: https://www.ncl.com/onboard-packages/dining-packages

I was told to use the "App" on a previous cruise, however, I don't use my phone onboard. We had the PP+ drink package recently, and Starbucks is included. Therefore, I can not say if your card will usable.

Earl Gray is usually available in the buffet. Lemon tea is often available. However, Ginger tea generally is not (or perhaps it just disappears very quickly). You may order Starbucks coffee and pay extra. OR, If you have the Premium Plus drink package, Starbucks is included. Alternately you can pre-purchase a STARBUCKS drink package or order using a Starbucks APP pre-loaded to your phone.

Unfortunately, you have left yourselves in the position of no negotiating because you did nothing to remedy the situation prior to your Final Payment date. I hope that you will have a wonderful cruise, despite the huge disappointments.

Well stated!!!

Use the same website... https://www.ncl.com/military I had no problem completing my "spouse" information and getting my membership set-up.

Perhaps you had Cod, which is a "white" fish.

Thank you for verifying this info!

In most restaurants (MDR and Specialty) you can order specialty coffees that would be billed to your onboard account. If you have OBC, that's great, it should be applied toward your expenses onboard!

DH used Power Point to fill-in our information, resized the labels, and then prints multiple copies all on one sheet. He uses the same template every time we cruise NCL ...if we don't receive preprinted tags.
