phishfan04 Posted January 20, 2015 #1 Share Posted January 20, 2015 About to book on the Epic, was going to do a balacony, but it appears that the if I can get the UDP, the premium dining and OBC, a mini suite would be a better deal. The NCL web site says "any suite or Heaven" reservation gets all three. So I am wondering if this includes "mini suite" Amy idea? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pieshops Posted January 20, 2015 #2 Share Posted January 20, 2015 No mini suite is not a suite just a larger balcony cabin. No suite perks. Must have s or h in front of category Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireEater Posted January 20, 2015 #3 Share Posted January 20, 2015 It shows you will get all 3 promos with a ocean view or better, but it is the OBC that changes. With ocean view up to balcony, it shows one getting $200 OBC With suite, it shows $300. Worse case is you get UBP, UDP, and $200 OBC instead of $300. With that said, is it still worth it to you?

No. You're missing the part that says "Choose From These Great Offers". You only get all three when you book a suite or Haven suite. (On Hawaii or Europe cruise you can choose two, not one.)

njhorseman Posted January 20, 2015 #7 Share Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) http://www.ncl.co.uk/offers/freestyle-choice/ That's fine, but it's the UK version. Both the OP and he person who made the incorrect statement are apparently from the US, NH and FL, respectively. The booking dates of the UK promotion differ from the US version, and it's possible there are other differences (I haven't checked the details of UK terms and conditions in order to compare them to the US version). The correct references for a passenger from the US are here: http://www.ncl.com/promo/wave15 And here: http://www.ncl.com/nclweb/cruiser/cmsPagesPopup.html?pageId=wave15terms Edited January 20, 2015 by njhorseman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avcruz Posted January 20, 2015 #8 Share Posted January 20, 2015 http://www.ncl.co.uk/offers/freestyle-choice/ Even the UK site reads that you receive at least one offer, doesn't read you get all three. Cabin category has to start with an H or an S to receive all three offers. Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does not have the perks a suite gets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phishfan04 Posted January 20, 2015 Author #11 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Thanks for the replies. The mini-suite really is just a balcony cabin with a tub, which I could care less about, I was only considering it if for the perks. I'm going to keep looking, I have vacation time I need to use by the end of March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On all other itineraries you would have only received one of the promo perks as a mini suite passenger.

I just cancelled my Alaska cruise and went with a European one on the Epic in March of 2016 and I got the choice of 2 of the 3 promos with only a balcony booking..

FireEater Posted January 20, 2015 #14 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I stand corrected. Not bad, only 20 days in the new year and it is my first mistake. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegalCat Posted January 21, 2015 #15 Share Posted January 21, 2015 I just booked for Sept 2016 on the Escape... I SCOURED the price list to find a week where the Spa Haven Suite was lowest price and scored: $300 OBC UBP UDP And since I booked with an outside company, they also gave me: an additional $100 OBC AND free pre-paid gratuities This will be my first time sailing in a spa suite, and my first time sailing in a haven suite... ALSO, by the time that cruise comes around I'll be platinum so I think that also gets me chocolate covered strawberries, sparkling wine in the cabin and dinner + bottle of wine (although since I have the UDP the dinner is a waste ;) I consider that a definite score Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
