Where Are The Perks?

Every promotion is a little different and the pricing changes while the promo is going on.

NCL has their free at sea that includes free drink package, free specialty dining, shore excursion credit, free internet, free air, and 3rd and 4th sail free....sounds like a GREAT deal, right??? BUT the drinks and dining packages are "free: but you pay the service charges, so not really 100% free. The shore excursion is $50 total per shore day (not per person - so isn't a whole lot of use), the internet is 250 minutes of the basic so is pretty useless, the air is fly in same day and fly out day of arrival - and you have no say over airline or times. 3rd and 4th free seems good! Add to this, the price on NCL right now is insane!!! I have a 6 night coatal booked that is costing around $500 a night! I prefer the option of booking a basic cruise with no frills pricing and then adding is=n things that are worthwhile to me over a cruise that have everything included but hidden in the fare and masked as "free"

I'll give up 3 freebies for 200 night (I'm a solo so that would be 100pp). There's no way gifting 50 towards 1 shore excursion + 15 gratuities a day + 235 booze a day makes it worthwhile for me. 

 

Sticking to my stackable OBC + bottle of wine + laundry + 150 internet minutes paying 135 for air for my Royal cruise balcony category (all in AS A SOLO = 1390)

Actually if the member in question is as militant about formal dress code as they come across they probably would be more disappointed by Cunard's changes than any other cruise line--Princess' "lack of enforcement" is a mere drop in the bucket. While Cunard still insists than men wear jackets every night in the MDR and all alternative dining options save one section of the buffet, they have now withdrawn the dictum of "no daytime sports wear after 6PM" in the Casino, Theatre, and most other lounges--even on formal nights. Even though I have learned to not let what others are wearing color my enjoyment of the evening my reaction is that Cunard has expunged a significant amount of what justifies the price difference between it and Princess just with those few words.

(/thread drift)

Sorry but I have never been disappointed in a Cunard cruise in any way and are far superior than Princess.
