CoupleUK Posted February 26, 2018 #1 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Has anyone ever received a free case (6 bottles) of wine from NCL? We do have a cruise booked but aren't due to sail until September and we have NO IDEA why we would be sent this wine. We are quite high on loyalty points with Royal, Celebrity and MSC but have only ever sailed once before with NCL. We contacted the supplier, who checked the details and got authority to call us back with some details - and she gave the name of a guy at NCL Cruises (I dont think it correct to put his name on here). So, THANK YOU NCL - even though we dont know why you sent it. Perhaps we are due to get bumped off our Sept cruise lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Froggitt Posted February 26, 2018 #2 Share Posted February 26, 2018 VV recently had a booking incentive if that's who you booked thru........ Book an Oceanview stateroom or above on any cruise of 5 days orlonger and you'll receive a FREE half case of WINE (white and red) delivered toyour home. BUT - Make sure you book on Wednesday, 21 February 2018to receive your free wine. In fact they often do it To celebrate Valentine's day - book an Oceanview stateroomor above on any cruise of 5 days or longer today and you will receive ahalf case of wine for free delivered to your home.* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katiemylady Posted February 26, 2018 #4 Share Posted February 26, 2018 No idea, but I'm pretty jealous! I was happy enough to get the free chocolate covered strawberries and a bottle of wine in our room upon embarkation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Visigoth Posted February 26, 2018 #7 Share Posted February 26, 2018 It is also quite possible that one of your friends or associates purchased a gift package for you through NCL and the ship failed to acknowledge the giver. It happened to us on our first voyage and we didn't find out that the gift had come from a relative rather than the ship until we returned home.

casofilia Posted February 26, 2018 #8 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Not to pop your bubble or anything but if you can manage to down 2 bottles of that swill within a week (let alone 6) more power to you. Try it 50:50 with apple juice, it becomes almost drinkable!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.S.Oceanlover Posted February 26, 2018 #9 Share Posted February 26, 2018 It is also quite possible that one of your friends or associates purchased a gift package for you through NCL and the ship failed to acknowledge the giver. It happened to us on our first voyage and we didn't find out that the gift had come from a relative rather than the ship until we returned home. It sounds like the OP hasn't even sailed yet and the wine was sent to them already. That's the confusing part. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timeforme Posted February 26, 2018 #10 Share Posted February 26, 2018 NCL have been doing a Wine Wednesday promotion in the UK. It didn't matter if you booked through a TA or direct with NCL but if you booked on a Wednesday you received a case of wine. Mine arrived last week without any paperwork and even my TA didn't know anything about it! Luckily, I had read about the promotion on the NCL website. Not sure if this is ongoing but it might be worth checking before you make a UK booking and make sure it is on a Wednesday. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoupleUK Posted February 26, 2018 Author #11 Share Posted February 26, 2018 No idea if we booked on a Wed lol Does seem a bit of a silly promotion if people dont know about it. Also, is Wednesday such a quiet cruise booking day that they have to offer 6 bottles of plonk to get bookings? Will have to book all future cruises by phone on a wednesday to try and blag a bigger discount lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davenew Posted February 28, 2018 #12 Share Posted February 28, 2018 We get a case whenever we book with Vision Cruise. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newmexicoNita Posted February 28, 2018 #13 Share Posted February 28, 2018 If we move to the UK I wonder if NCL will give us 6 free bottles. Of course unless it did arrive prior to sailing we wouldn't need the 6 bottles, we would drink plenty of the ship with the UBP.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamond lover Posted March 5, 2018 #18 Share Posted March 5, 2018 :) I wish there were thumbs up, or “❤️“ or laughing out loud options for posts lol. Maniacal, you would constantly get “laughing heartily” from me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
