js Posted April 15, 2013 #3526 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Looks pretty tiny lmao! And a phone directly in the middle of that area.. hmm! Should be on a night stand near the bed As soon as I saw the phone on the bureau I had the same thought of OMG!!! I am traveling with my mother and my sister/her family and both my mom and sister, who are all in separate cabins, are phone addicts and I initially thought how many times will I have to get out of bed to get the phone????!!!! Why the heck isn't it by the beds? As a first time NCL cruiser, I am not familiar with what Vibe and H20 offers for the adult crowd. From what I read, you have to purchase a weekly pass for Vibe, what would be included in the cost and what is the cost? Also, can we buy ahead of time or only on board? vs. H20, which I understand is free of cost. Any information would be appreciated. Laurie I think that with Vibe, chilled towels are included and there is an oversized Jacuzzi and a bar, where one can purchase drinks. I don't know what is by Spice? Is there a pool, Jacuzzi or just an area? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HowardK Posted April 15, 2013 #3528 Share Posted April 15, 2013 I am wondering, what toppings will be available at the hot dog carts? I might need a soda card after all. I figure around 3 hot dogs a day= around 10 sodas for the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gambee Posted April 15, 2013 #3529 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Gambee and jsThanks for the info!! Any idea how much the vibe pass will be? I understand that for epic it costs $15 per day or $59 per week. I assume that it will be the same for breakaway?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suz1607 Posted April 15, 2013 #3532 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Thought some Bermuda info. might pass the time! The ferry to St. Georges will be docking at Penno's Wharf near the Bermuda World Heritage Center. The Center is well worth a look as is the Second Hand Rose Shop that is inside. There should be many taxi drivers to take you to the beach or you can walk, but before you go to the beach be sure to check out the World Heritage Center and the town of Saint George's--- great stores and history! There is a film at the World Heritage Center that runs continuously called "A Stroll Through Saint George's" that offers a wonderful orientation. Ferry's will leave the Dockyard At 9:30 am, 11:30 am, 2:00 pm and 4:15 pm. Return ferry's will leave Saint George's at 10:30: am, 1:00 pm, 3:30 pm and 5:15 pm.

ge0rgette2 Posted April 15, 2013 #3533 Share Posted April 15, 2013 These couches/sofas just don't look comfortable at all. My son will be sleeping on it - at 270lbs and 6'1 .. oh man!

Where do you go to purchase these if you want to try and get them as soon as one boards in hopes they aren't sold out? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob brown Posted April 15, 2013 #3535 Share Posted April 15, 2013 That's a fairly large phone, and looks like it has some kind of video display. I am guessing that it's on the desk/vanity because it would take up almost the entire top of one of those small nightstands. Regarding Pier 88....I am hoping that the Breakaway gets Berth One regularly for its better view South...It seems that when only one ship is in, they seem to prefer using Berth Two.

The Breakaway will always be a berth two. That is the berth that has the modified gangways to handle the lifeboats protruding. You will till get a great southern view from the upper decks.

CruisingSwedes Posted April 15, 2013 #3541 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Wondering if I could please get suggestions of the best place to be for sail out from Rotterdam? I have a studio so a private balcony is not an option ha ha ha ha :-) I was thinking maybe the uptown bar and Grill or H2O on 15? Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Why the heck isn't it by the beds?. I think they cannot have it by the beds as they change the configuration from a queen to two twins by moving then nightstands from either side to in the middle. The phone in our Star Aft Balcony was also by the TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shepherdqueen Posted April 15, 2013 #3544 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Please forgive this late post. I know I saw somewhere that someone was going to use Twitter for ship updates. How do I follow along? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would I purchase the Vibe pass at Guest Relations? I think either way this is what we may do if there is availability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, we are booked in a suite.... :mad: Nothing will show up online, you would have to call the concierge desk. But for our May 19 sailing, even the concierge desk couldn't make our reservations until the 45 day mark, and even then we were unable to get the times we wanted (lots of errors in the system for Breakaway still). Mostly dining times, as we have three in our party and they only offered a single time (7:30pm) for all the dining venues we teied to pre book. no problems with times for 2 or 4 people, with many time choices, but only 7:30 every night for 3 people. Hoping the concierge onboard can fix things for us. Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kewbrick Posted April 15, 2013 #3547 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Called Pre Concierge - Spoke to Vanessa who was very helpful. Was able to get all our dinner reservations at the time we wanted and booked Rock of Ages for 1st night as well. :) Now just have to wait the 55 days until cruise time!
