gkeep Posted February 28 #1 Share Posted February 28 New to NCL, how many days prior to sailing are the online purchases like excursions, drink packages, prepaid gratuities, water cartons etc available to purchase? I have been on other lines that end 3 days before and some that end 2 weeks before. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you already booked something? We generally don't book more than a year in advance (although our next one doesn't follow that rule), but my experience is that as soon as we book, we can start buying.

Beverage items are always available. Excursions - some will be sold out by that time; again, you can check onboard re what's still open; they might also reopen a sell-out if they can arrange additional groups.

They start printing room keys and ShoreEx tickets. After that, if you touch your land reservation it may/may not get sent to the ship properly.
