UBP and Dining package

[crisp1]

We are looking to book a quad - 2 adults, 2 kids. So if we pick the UBP and Specialty dining for all of us- we'll just get charged the 18% for the dining for 4 and for us for the UBP- what about the kids?

[KeithJenner]

The Dining and drinks package are just for the first two people in the room, so you will get charged the gratuity for just two of you. Anything for the kids will need to be purchased separately.

If so, then why am I able to choose all for when booking?

[Two Wheels Only]

After picking your room type and promo, under "View Details", you'll see that the "Choice Promotion Service Charge:" is only applied to guests #1 & #2.

What country are you booking from? If from the U.S. the promos only apply to guests 1 and 2. Here are the terms for current promos booking from the U.S. and several other countries: https://www.ncl.com/termsandconditions/promotions?hide_hf=true

NCL's Q&Answers are confusing just check

[crisp1]

So, all promos are for 1&2- including beverages and dining?

UBP and SDP are for #1 & #2.

WiFi and Excursion promos are per stateroom.

Short answer...yes

Yes. That is the way it works. You can purchase a dining package for 3&4 and soda package for 3&4 if you wish. But it is not included.

 

Stay away from Q&A. You need to look at the promotions running when you book. Right on the web page about 1/2 down "Unlimited Open Bar and Free Specialty Dining applies only to Guests 1 & 2."

Wifi is a joke- 250 minutes for our 12 day and it took 10+ minutes just to access -used most just checking email.On =X= last week- unlimited for 2- instant access- very fast- NCL - just a joke

Not sure when you cruised NCL last but that wasn't the experience I had in Jan. I paid for internet by the minute and used a total of 20 minutes over my 10 day cruise. No issues with connecting, worked just like my internet at home. 20 minutes let me check my iMessages, post to Facebook a few times plus some browsing.

I was on same cruise as Crisp1 but my experience more closely mirrors that Sanger727. I typically logged on once a day to download emails and then again to upload my answers. Typically that only took 2 minutes each.

When we booked the NCL rep recommended 3rd (and in your case 4th as well) passenger free and just pay for the dining package separate. A better deal. Check it out and run the numbers.

On a laptop in your cabin? On =X= Summit a couple of weeks ago the connection was as fast as at home with cable- NCL was awful in comparison

Can you change your package once you have booked? Or do you need to cancel and rebook to change the package?

You can phone and change it. I'm not sure how close to sailing it can be changed.
