Cubechick Posted March 12, 2012 #2 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Only in the suites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toyz711 Posted March 12, 2012 #3 Share Posted March 12, 2012 only the suites, otherwise you have to request them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endymion6942 Posted March 12, 2012 #4 Share Posted March 12, 2012 I always get a frig for my insuin. I will use the balance of the frig space for fresh fruit from the buffet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nursebubba Posted March 13, 2012 #5 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Have your pcc let them know you need one for my meds. They never asked me what meds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penguinscott Posted March 14, 2012 #6 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Did I read that they charge $2 a day for them? :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvsullivan Posted March 14, 2012 #7 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Insulin does not need to be refrigerated. Always says up to 28 days is ok. I think NCL wised up and is now charging if you need one for your "insulin". Per my doctor, I've kept mine on the counter for a one week cruise.:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barb Nahoumi Posted March 14, 2012 #8 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Two years ago, I requested one from my pcc, and it was placed in my OV. There was no extra charge, nor did she ask me what the reason was. Did policies change on the Spirit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luddite Posted March 14, 2012 #9 Share Posted March 14, 2012 There is no charge to get the fridge. It does cramp the room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nursebubba Posted March 14, 2012 #10 Share Posted March 14, 2012 I put it under the sink in the bathroom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PreciousCruiser Posted March 15, 2012 #11 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Just got off the spirit on 3/11/12. No frig. in our balcony cabin. Considered asking for one for some meds, but decided against it due to space restrictions. Did not know it might fit under the sink in the bathroom...

LTC Posted March 15, 2012 Author #12 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Thanks for all the replies. I thought that I had heard that NCL had put fridges in all the cabins. I'll be going on a Med. cruise in September and had hoped that was the case. Guess it won't be happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PreciousCruiser Posted March 16, 2012 #13 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Yes, I too heard they were going to be adding fridges in February, but that was not the case on our 3/4/12 cruise. It couldn't hurt to make a special request for one and see what happens. Good luck if you do so. Enjoy your cruise to the Med., I am soooo jealous....

Toyz711 Posted March 16, 2012 #14 Share Posted March 16, 2012 they would have had to rewire the whole ship to to put fridges in each cabin of the spirit. not going to happen. the other NCL ships do have fridges, it's just the spirit that they are limited to suites or requests. remember, the spirit was never made and wired for the asian market..wiring is different.

I disagree, NCL wouldn't have to rewire the entire ship. But they would have to install 220 volt fridges, not the 110 volt variety. Which, by the way, should be extremely easy for any European shipyard. Stationing the Spirit in Europe full time makes this an easier upgrade to do. Whether NCL will actually upgrade all the cabins with fridges is up to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indianatraveler5 Posted March 16, 2012 #16 Share Posted March 16, 2012 I called and requested one for our 4/01 cruise. She asked if it was medical and I said no. She said ok, no charge. But it is based on availability and medical reasons come first. We'll see in two weeks if I receive it. It comes in handy for drinks, but if others need it for medical reasons, it wont bother me not to have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has not been too much of a problem as cleared mini fridge of drinks but that would not be an option in this case and dont want to get to the ship and find they all gone!

I called about a month ago and I'm sorry I don't remember which number I used. I booked directly with NCL and I believe it was a number on my receipt. (which is at work at the moment). There were at least 5 others on my roll call that also reserved them and got the same response. (free but medical reasons get priority). I doubt they all booked direct. I would just call whatever number you may have on your edocs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barb Nahoumi Posted March 18, 2012 #19 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Mine was placed under the desk/table in my cabin. It fit nicely in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
