Heather1972 Posted April 8, 2014 #1 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Hi all - We cruise on the Epic this Sunday. I have a couple of questions. Shoe organizer ... will it fit on the main door? I usually put it on the bathroom door, but since we have balcony room with the funky bathroom layout, that's not an option. Towels ... how does NCL handle passing out towels? Need to scan your card, do nothing, write it down on a piece of paper. I've seen all kinds of ways. Soda drink package... how does this work since NCL gives you a cup? Hand it to the bartender, check your card, what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrumpyNor Posted April 8, 2014 #2 Share Posted April 8, 2014 (edited) Regarding the towels - I am guessing that you mean the larger beach towels? When you arrive in your cabin there should be one for each person in the cabin. There is a towel station on the pool deck where you can change the beach towels whenever needed. Or you can get an extra beach towel there - then they write down your name and cabin no. and you get a copy of the slip. When you return the extra towel later in the day, they "erase" your name from the list. If you don't return the towel, you might get charged for it.... You should also make sure that when the cruise is over, the correct amount of beach towels are in the cabin, otherwise the room steward might calculate it as "missing" and then they probably would charge it to your account... Regarding the soda drink package, you will also have a sticker on your ship card, so you can still get your soda drinks without bringing the special glass with you everywhere.

Heather1972 Posted April 8, 2014 Author #3 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Thanks. :) Does the bartender still need to see the card and sticker if you hand them the special cup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrumpyNor Posted April 8, 2014 #4 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Thanks. :) Does the bartender still need to see the card and sticker if you hand them the special cup? I am actually not sure, since I have never purchased the soda package myself. But I have heard that they (the bar-waiters) learn pretty quickly who has the soda package and who has not. My guess is that sometimes they would ask for it and sometimes not - but is wouldn't be a problem since you usually have the ship card in your pocket IF somebody asks. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbrugler Posted April 8, 2014 #5 Share Posted April 8, 2014 (edited) We always just tell the room steward that we need fresh beach towels and he bings them and takes the used ones. As for shoe storage I bring extra feet. Edited April 8, 2014 by rbrugler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdmike Posted April 8, 2014 #6 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Thanks. :) Does the bartender still need to see the card and sticker if you hand them the special cup? Yes, they are supposed to since you could give your cup to anyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acovington7920 Posted April 9, 2014 #7 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Regarding the shoe organizer: there is plenty of storage in the cabin and I didn't need an organizer on my recent Epic cruise (2 of us in the cabin).

We just returned from the Epic on April 6-I hung my show organizer to the right of the right closet door-it was closest to the wall/magazine rack-I was able to hook it to the top of the closet without a problem. We had two beach towels waiting for us when they opened cabins-if you need one prior to going to your cabin you just showed your key car to the towel man-you will be given a new towel in exchange for each one returned Didn't drink pop so can't comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
