ggTexasGal Posted November 20, 2015 #76 Share Posted November 20, 2015 How hard is it to get a table for two? Actually, that depends on the time and the location. We rarely have to wait long at most complimentary restaurants when we go around 5:30 PM, as we usually eat early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oakman58 Posted November 21, 2015 #77 Share Posted November 21, 2015 I received an email from NCL today reminding me to check-in online for our upcoming cruise. We’re still 50 some days from the cruise so I was surprised they sent out such an early reminder. Instead of doing the online check-in I decided to pay the service charge and get that out of the way. I looked at the Port of Houston webcam early this morning and I see the Jade is back in port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hlb76 Posted November 21, 2015 #81 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Actually, all dining venues including all specialty restaurants allow shorts for dinner except: the aft main dining room and Le Bistro. Per NCL all other venues allow shorts at any time. Good I'm glad. On Carnival we normally dress the boys in plaid or khaki shorts and a Polo. Glad we will still fit in. I get the specialty restaurants would have a more strict dress code but only one of them more strict. Any reason why one MDR is over the other? Just curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tanyaheart Posted November 26, 2015 #83 Share Posted November 26, 2015 My friend sailed on the Jade Nov. 14th and was going to bring me the Daily Sheets. Well, she got sick and went in the hospital in Honduras and had to fly home. She called and said that she would bring me the Daily Sheets next week. That's nice since I'm leaving Saturday. No Daily Sheets. :( I'm a big craft person and on our cruise last December and again in February they offered knitting. It's probably the only thing in the world of crafting that I don't do. So far the only thing I've been able to find out about the Jade activities is Greeting Card Making. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac4YYZ Posted November 28, 2015 #87 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Please post two things if you can: Which nights are the prime rib dinner nights. NCL usually does them a few nights on a 7 night cruise and the dinner is very good. And where the does the ship port in Roatan. Wondering if it is Mahogany Bay or tendering into somewhere else? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac4YYZ Posted November 28, 2015 #90 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Thank you. But is the port stop at Mahogany Bay or is it Coxen Hole? I was under the impression that Mahogany Bay was a Carnival owned thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac4YYZ Posted November 28, 2015 #93 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Sorry. One last thing. Please advise if they are using shore based tenders or lifeboats. I had a miserable experience in Grand Cayman on Epic with them trying to use lifeboats as tenders. It was like watching the Three Stooges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
live2cruise2011 Posted November 28, 2015 #94 Share Posted November 28, 2015 so we booked the jade last night for January after a really hard week we have decided this is what we need.

I had a miserable experience in Grand Cayman on Epic with them trying to use lifeboats as tenders. It was like watching the Three Stooges. I guess tendering with lifeboats depends on the crew. We tendered with them last January in Trujillo on the Jewel, Honduras and it was very smooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanyaheart Posted November 28, 2015 #99 Share Posted November 28, 2015 We tendered in Trujillo twice. One was a nightmare & lifeboat broke down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
