Hello there! I'm on this cruise!
Super late to the party - booked as a free cruise through casino match, going to be in a cove balcony (and very excited for that!). I'm 27F, traveling with my aunt. First vacation as just the two of us, so that should be interesting - we previously went on a family cruise as about 10 of us in 2017 I think?
No excursions planned at this time, we're looking to just lay on the beach, be in a pool, etc. Might still book something, but it's not a priority. Taking it very low key. I like sea days with just lounging, drinking, eating, playing cards, and leaving out of NYC was probably my biggest priority.
We live in NJ (about 1-1.5 hours with a bit of traffic), and I normally drive my parents to the port to sail on NCL (they go to Bermuda out of NYC 2x per year) so I'm very familiar with driving in, but I don't particularly want to park at the port... just an expense I haven't planned for, it's just as much as the cheers package! Might look into the EWR transport to the port if we can get in on that, it's just that much easier to get to the airport via public transportation if we have to.
Just a few more days! Going to start getting my stuff together today. Need to coordinate everything we are bringing. We basically just started planning.... this week.... been booked for a LONG time.
