coka Posted October 28, 2013 #1 Share Posted October 28, 2013 If anyone is worried about the recent changes whether points can be cashed in for Norwegian cruises, I had no problem applying 30,000 points when I booked a trip last Friday. I read previously conflicting information so I thought I would post stating the option is still there. I could have used it for onboard credit but used it to reduce the total cost instead. The Norwegian representative who booked the trip was also the same one who cashed in the points for me. It was quite easy to do over the phone.

time2cruise1 Posted October 29, 2013 #10 Share Posted October 29, 2013 I might add my experience today was far from smooth and easy. Over 90 minutes and a follow up call things are now applied almost correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cashed in NCL credit card points for Slot Play coupons and OBC in February for the Jewel and plan to do the same for December on the Breakaway. You can also purchase slot play and table chips on the NCL website under Gifts. I would gladly also recommend the Slot Play Coupons website - $50 slot play for $25. Have used it several times and recommended it to many others - great deal, no issues!!

pliskin Posted November 1, 2013 #19 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Is there any time restriction in relation to sail date? Like can I add OBC from my rewards card the week before we sail? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coscab Posted November 16, 2013 #20 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Thanks Margie, Hopefully the discounts will still be available after October 1st under the new BOA - NCL agreement. Looks like the slot play deal with NCL bank of america points is gone, I can only find the OBC's etc. on the website, maybe it is available if you call directly.

Mommy oooo Posted November 18, 2013 #22 Share Posted November 18, 2013 that is good to know, although we no longer get double points for NCL purchases, correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You still get double points for every qualifying $ spent with NCL. See attached link http://www.ncl.com/world-points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomct Posted November 20, 2013 #24 Share Posted November 20, 2013 After many phone conversations and a considerable amount of difficulty trying to find the right person to redeem some WorldPoints on a cruise. I was previously not aware of the Concierge Desk, available for Booked Platinum Latitude Members or guests booked in Suites. The number is 1-855-625-4283, and unless NCL changes things, they should answer the phone as Concierge Desk. The two individuals I spoke to the past two days were very knowledgeable, courteous, and friendly. Though I did not need to call WorldPoints, the direct number the concierge gave me is 1-866-954-4077. Hopefully these numbers help avoid those annoying menu options, especially the ones where none of them match up with what you want, and you have to press 0 to get an operator. Good Luck!

coscab Posted November 20, 2013 #25 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Still wondering if anyone has been able to redeem points for casino play recently, I don't see it listed on redemption page anymore, I am glad I already redeemed for my Dec cruise (2500 for 50. used to be 5000 for 100.) I wanted to redeem for slot play for my March Dawn cruise but I don't see that option anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
