cruzingambler Posted April 26, 2019 #1 Share Posted April 26, 2019 Heard on Kelly & Ryan this morning that Norwegian will no longer be making towel animals for cabins😪. I enjoy coming in to the cabin at night & being greeted by a cute towel animal. The staff is so creative & it’s a special touch. One more cost reduction, boohoo!! Has anyone else heard this?

They’re by request now. Just ask your cabin steward. Happy Sailing! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why am I being charged for a free promo?... NCL lowered prices after I booked so they owe me something... I wanted a lounger next to the pool but other people had already hogged them... I wanted a VIBE pass but other people took them and they barely went into VIBE... They call it "freestyle" but all of the good reservation times were taken... Someone was wearing shorts in a specialty restaurant and they ruined my meal... Why can't I book my teens in a room by themselves? I wanted the balcony dividers opened but NCL said "no"...

Rare Travelicious Posted April 27, 2019 #11 Share Posted April 27, 2019 It is not just NCL. I was on Celebrity a week ago and no towel animals in my room either. Of course, I've probably already seen them all, so no big deal to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amelia3171 Posted April 27, 2019 #12 Share Posted April 27, 2019 I always felt sorry for the busy cabin steward, I’m sure making towel animals was a right pain. My cabin has always been spotless so hopefully no towel animals might give them an extra couple of minutes per cabin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amelia3171 Posted April 27, 2019 #14 Share Posted April 27, 2019 I would love a completely pay for you want all inclusive price. Your want towel animals that will be $x. You want bottled water that will be $x. You want espresso based drinks that will be $x. You want all the beers, wines & cocktails that will be $x. You want the spa that will be $x. You want go-carts that will be $x. You want fresh juice $x. You want lobster $x. The joy joy if NCL is that it can be all things to all people so why not pay for what we want and not pay for what we don’t want? i think the all-inclusive failed in Europe because people like me hated paying for the bottles water that wasted space in the cabin and coffee that was included. I’m much happier with the current free at sea promotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No towel animals on Princess or Cunard either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willsears94 Posted April 27, 2019 #19 Share Posted April 27, 2019 It's great if you have kids. I don't and am 32 with my partner in her 20s. It's cute on your 1st and 2nd cruise, but then you realize it is a waste to the environment and there are only so many types the crew can make anyways. I rather crew focus their time on cleanliness and customer service in food and drink service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcruiser50 Posted April 28, 2019 #20 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Just go to the towel animal demonstration and learn how to make them yourself, or ask your steward and tip her/him you will get your towel animal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCLetscruise Posted April 28, 2019 #22 Share Posted April 28, 2019 NCL announced earlier today that they won't be getting rid of the towel animals completely. Besides the UPB, SDP, WiFi, etc.. they will now offer the UTAP. Ultimate Towel Animal Package. It won't be offered as a free perk, it will have to be purchased for the low, low price of $49.99 per day, per person. That doesn't include taxes, and gratuity. For this reasonable price, you get 2 towel animals per day. Should you long for more, each additional towel animal will be $14.99. 😁😁 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
