Thank You, I will be driving to the port so not an issue with the airlines. We would certainly tip the porters and attendants well and ensure nothing was above 50lbs.
The NCL site states the following "Each person is allowed up to two pieces of personal luggage on board, with each piece weighing a maximum of 50 pounds. However, if passengers are travelling by air, they need to check with the airline for specific restrictions", hence my concerns
