Rare HBCcruiser Posted July 21, 2022 Author #202 Share Posted July 21, 2022 So I asked if the Ice Bar drinks are available at any other bar and I was told that they were not. Bummer. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NayRN Posted July 21, 2022 #203 Share Posted July 21, 2022 @HBCcruiser I’m not sailing until September and this can change, but who is the concierge currently? I’m just curious if it will be one that I’ve sailed with before. 😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare HBCcruiser Posted July 22, 2022 Author #204 Share Posted July 22, 2022 We ate again at Ocean Blue. Amazing. Our fav waiter, Adrienne, served us with great style and fun. He’s awesome! Loves to joke with my DDs which they love. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare HBCcruiser Posted July 22, 2022 Author #206 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Huge swells today. My DDs are felling it. 🤢The itinerary change for this cruise really sucked. The rainy day and canceled excursions did not help. Luckily we had great excursions and weather on the Sky cruise. Two sea days left then we disembark. Hopefully the weather will be nice enough for Vibe to be open. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bummer. The way around that is to figure out what is in the drink itself, and just ask for that separately I guess. Frangelico + vodka + something else....

GALSews Posted July 23, 2022 #214 Share Posted July 23, 2022 On 7/18/2022 at 5:53 PM, Sailing12Away said: Pro tip - if you're too full for dessert but something (non ice-cream) catches your eye, they can always send it up to your room with your butler so it's waiting for you later on in the evening. We've done that a few times and it was nice to have slice of cake or something waiting for us at the end of a night of drinking. On the Escape, we didn't do a great job of scheduling, so we didn't get to eat the dessert at Cagneys. (Plus we were pretty full anyway.) We used one of our specialty dining meals so we were entitled to a dessert. After we went to that night's show, we stopped by the Haven restaurant figuring we'd get a dessert there. (Yeah upgrade!) We told them about this great sounding dessert that was being offered at Cagneys. The wait staff came back with the dessert from Cagney's. I don't know if that happens often, but if it happened once ... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare HBCcruiser Posted July 23, 2022 Author #215 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Dinner was a Cagneys. We almost left after 30 min of no waiter asking us about our drinks. The restaurant was packed and the staff seemed overworked. The food was great as always. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare HBCcruiser Posted July 23, 2022 Author #216 Share Posted July 23, 2022 (edited) After dinner we tried our luck at the tables. The DDs won a little and enjoyed playing. I must say I much preferred playing during Covid when smoking was not allowed in the casinos. On this ship the smell seems to permeate all of deck 7. NCL should have designed it better with Vegas-like ventilation. I found this critter waiting for us in the cabin. Close enough!🐀 Edited July 23, 2022 by HBCcruiser 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a fan... I agree. The space is very tight for all of that furniture. They are using those tables as an extension of the restaurant. The Haven is packed. In fact, it was sold out for this cruise. I agree that it has not been the same level of Haven experience that we had pre-Covid. I also feel that they are short staffed for the number of passengers onboard. I am tipping well because I really feel sorry for the crew who are working so hard to please and do a good job. My guess is that NCL is trying to earn back lost revenue. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First, a baby should not be in that kind of heated water for an extended amount of time. Second, a baby in diapers?? Really disgusting. Sometimes, I wonder what is wrong with some people. Why would you put a baby in a hot tub? I hope someone reported it. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were not there when we got back but I’m not sure what transpired. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure if the high-cost, fast streaming (supposedly) WiFi allows me to. Have I mentioned that the WiFi sucks? No? Well, it does. 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
