Everybody gets E-Docs ... so, does this mean "check-in for guests who did not print them and have them on an electronic device instead" / "check-in for guests who printed them out"? Thank you for asking this question as I was a little confused by the signs too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vacation44 Posted April 10, 2023 #55 Share Posted April 10, 2023 Are men allowed to wear nice shorts in the Manhattan room on the Encore? Last year we were on the Joy and shorts were allowed; however, a few weeks ago on the Epic they enforced a no shorts allowed for men rule. Notice I said "men" because we say plenty of women wearing shorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously, I can't speak for what they're doing now, but I didn't bring any pants with me on that sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the Epic, the two restaurants are Le Bistro and the Manhattan Room, so it was proper to enforce the long pants rule there. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not really one that cares about cruise directors on ships. They don't make, or break, my cruise. But, out of my four cruises, Tiara (Getaway in September) was not good. They didn't have a wake up show which is honestly the only thing I appreciate on the NCL television. It's really a great opportunity to be funny and let us know about the goings on for the day. She didn't do one. It was the same show, every day - a tour of the ship. I'm hoping that she may have improved. I'd love to hear your impression of her on your cruise! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is for those who didn’t bother to check in online. Their processing at the port takes more time since all of the info done during online checkin has to be gathered and once their passport number is entered, they need to be cleared to sail. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to hear your impression of her on your cruise! No real improvement. No daily show - just her saying she doesn’t like stairs. And during the aborted call to GSC, her one job was to make the 4800 onboard believe that it was “ok” and that they would still have a great day. She basically read the same statement the Captain read about cancelling due to approaching weather. And told people to see the revised program. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember those comments and that she absolutely loves Starbucks! Which is most definitely true. I saw her in the Starbucks line often, but she never engaged with passengers while waiting. I understand crew need time for themselves, but I was surprised she didn't even say hi to folks that passed by. Oh well... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For clarification. the No Reservations items are 1st come 1st server or you did not make reservations? Just wondering since I have watched videos, read reviews that places like the Cavern Club tend to be hard to get into. If there are not reservations for the CC what time would be suggested to arrive to get a seat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
