Questions regarding tendering to GSC

[cruisin07family]

As I understand it, we will need to get a ticket and we are not in a suite. If I purchase the hippo slide, it will give us a priority tender ticket? Does each person need a ticket? The kids may want to slide, but dh and I will not. I understand it gets quite crowded there and I want to get over as early as possible. Suggestions?

Pay for the hippo slide and ask for 4 tender tickets, can't be easier.

Only been on 2 NCL cruises. Don't know about the Hippo thing. My experience has been to get in line for the tender tickets early as they are numbered. They typically announce that the tender tickets will be available at a certain location at 8:00 a.m. Be there before that time by at least a half hour or more as there will be a line forming by 7:00 a.m. or so. First come...first severed. Just sayin....

They tell you that their excursions get priority, but in my experience they do not turn you away if you show up for a ticket when they become available.
