Not a Latitudes Member...Where to Wait?

[shelly2176]

This is our first cruise with Norwegian so we're not Latitudes members and will be driving into NY. We want to leave early for a 2-2 1/2 hr drive to make sure we get there by 10:30-11:00. If we should we get there before they begin boarding, what can we do or where do we wait? Any help would be great.

Thanks!

They have chairs and will direct you...not to worry they don't leave you standing too long most of the time...

Our plan is to do the same because last cruise (we were in an AB Penthouse) we missed the VIP embarkation when we had arrived at about 12:30. When you walk into the terminal, look for a flight of stairs with an agent (probably NCL agent, but may be port authority) at the bottom of the stairs. He/she will direct you upstairs to the VIP lounge (for lattitudes and suite passengers). There they will have refreshments and places to sit until it's time to board.

 

Happy Sailing! :D

You'll be ok!! Check your luggage, park your car and get back down to the pier----

Lattitudes member or not there are NCL people on the pier (passed the porter and luggage check in) to direct you to places to sit or stand in line no matter when you arrive.

 

Actually as a lattitudes member, we were told that we had to go and stand in a line that was steadily growing on the 6/3 SPIRIT as the lattitudes members had already been boarded... We went in another line and were actually onboard before the Lattitudes line built up enough people to be taken to God only knows where they go LOL-- Last year we missed the lattitudes group by a minute and were told to sit and wait but went to the regular check through and start to finish it took about 20 minutes..

 

If you are early,they will direct you to a place to sit..lattitudes or not....

 

Suggestion: If you get there too early before they are boarding, ask an NCL rep if you can preregister..they may say OK--and that will save you a step later :D

 

 

Have a great time!

we always do, they never asked for them unless we preregistered less than 14 days to sailing..

 

.the preregister I was referring tobelow is probably the wrong word--pre check in maybe?? early check in??

;) not to worry, they will direct you and if you have that "lost look" on your face, just as we did, they will come right over...if not, just ask........we got off the bus and was there about 7:00 AM :eek: yes we were the very first ones,lol....

Thanks for all the help...I probably will have that "lost look" on my face along with my husband and in-laws. The only one who probably won't look lost will be my 3 year old!
