pinkie60 Posted June 6, 2019 #1 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Now that we are mostly happy about our monetary compensation, we must beg the question “where in heck are we going”? Please Norwegian if you’re reading this, please not Nassau or Freeport. I’d like Cozumel, Porta Maya, Puerto Rico, Grand Turk, Jamaica, and even Labadee. 😩 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smplybcause Posted June 6, 2019 #2 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Well Labadee is privately owned by Royal - so you won't be going there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetaro Posted June 6, 2019 #3 Share Posted June 6, 2019 MSC is replacing Havana with Key West, Florida; Costa Maya, Mexico; George Town, Cayman Islands; or Cozumel, Mexico. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the 3-night use to be Nassau and GSC. Since it is off season, they have been using Key West as one of the stops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked that itinerary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess has leased their "private island Princess Cays" out to other non CCL lines. I don't think NCL will be going there but it is not impossible.

It must go to a foreign port, most likely in the Bahamas. It is possible that not every cruise will have the same itinerary due to docking availability.

20YearsBetweenCruises Posted June 7, 2019 #14 Share Posted June 7, 2019 I just received an email from NCL that had the itineraries. See attachment Now to figure out what to do in Freeport and Nassau. But more importantly, where to go with "a 50% future cruise credit". I am hoping this means 50% off a cruise vs. 50% of what I paid for my Cuba cruise as a credit towards a future cruise.

CUBA LETTER.pdf 67.1 kB · 3 downloads The future cruise credit is 50% of what you paid for the Cuba cruise. The amount is added to your NCL Latitudes account after you complete the cruise. To apply it to a new cruise booking, you or your travel agent have to call NCL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that is more likely, but they should really work on the wording to state that clearly! Either way, I am happy, but would be more happy to get 50% off a cruise:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare All-ready2cruise Posted June 7, 2019 #17 Share Posted June 7, 2019 For those who've rec'd the email regarding compensation, does it specify the Time Frame in which the credit needs to be used? The only reason I ask is that, when we were given a similar credit in 2015, there was no date/frame given when we needed to use the credit, yet, when I called to the cruise using the 25% credit we'd received, they gave me a lot of trouble. What I'm recommending is that if you're not ready to book your cruise right now in order to receive the 50% off, please, please print off any correspondence with NCL that you've received recently regarding this issue. It will make a huge difference in your future dealings with NCL. Wishing everyone happy cruising no matter where you choose to go... BTW... I'd look at some of the more expensive cruises so that the 50% really counts for something.. 😉 Cheers, and good luck. All the best. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my post a few up from this one, I added the attachment of what we got. It has a date of 12/31/2020, I have an Alaskan cruise planned, so will go next year, so this is not a problem for me. If it really is 50% off, it will be fun finding something more extravagant! From the attachment: "Sail the revised itinerary and receive a 50% refund of the cruise fare paid as well as a 50% future cruise credit valid through December 31, 2020. The future cruise credit will be applied to your account following the sailing." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went through this 2 years ago and I'm sure they will give you 50% of the cruise are paid toward a future cruise. Looks like they have added wording to clarify that a set amount will be applied to your NCL account after your sailing is completed. The only glitch we ran into was that our future cruise credit could not be applied to an existing future cruise - only to a new booking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
