Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. They do all of those things. The only thing that fit our schedule was the Lat party. We arrived less than 15 minutes late and it was already over. I actually love the back to back idea bc there were many things I wanted to do both on and off the ship that there just wasn't enough time for.
  2. Yes, you will receive all NCL perks and more.
  3. Book fixed price restaurants first: Does this mean online or in person or first as in earlier in the cruise? For instance, I have the 2 platinum dinners and one FAS dinner. Wouldn't they only charge me if I made more than 3 reservations? Or the system would only account for the FAS?
  4. Go with the cheaper cruise and go to Japan also! 🥂
  5. I have done back to back excursions in a few ports. In one, Barbados specifically, I did a snorkel/beach excursion followed up by a cave excursion. I believe there was only 15-30 minutes in between. It turned out that both were run by the same vendor, and the NCL shorex staff communicated directly with the vendor on what I was doing both prior and via walkie-talkie that day. I have had no problems with same day excursions with an hour in between. That is a safe time gap for me, also with the understanding that in rare circumstances a situation could arise where I would not make it in time for my next booking. Communicating with the shorex staff is key. In a different situation, they advised fairly about a chance that I may not make it back in time from a tour in the BVIs to then make a catamaran excursion. I believe it was only 15 minutes in between. Basically, choose my priority or risk paying for both and not making it for the afternoon excursion. I ended up just booking the first excursion, which was my priority, and took my chances on getting on the 2nd tour last minute. It turned out that I made it back to the pier with extra time to get on the 2nd excursion, but it was a popular snorkel trip and was sold out at that point. In your specific case, I would only book the snorkel excursion at this point. Then talk to the shorex staff on the ship and see if there is any realistic way to do both. In frequent instances, tour times are changed or canceled. I'm Platinum and a shore excursion junkie fwiw.
  6. I bought Posh passes at Guest Services on the Epic immediately after boarding. I don't think they were even selling any online at the time.
  7. Are sides included with the Latitudes perk dinner at Cagney's? If so, one, two, or more?? I tried researching, but see mixed answers from years ago. I'm trying to decide which restaurant to use my reward dinner and which to use my dining perk dinner (Cagney's vs Le Bistro). Thanks!
  8. I just discovered this in my account. I'm Platinum.
