Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. I think I need to call NCL as now I’m totally confused since there seem to have been different experiences on different ships.
  2. Thanks for the info. So if you don’t use any of the free and sea minutes at all, can you upgrade to unlimited when you board? On the first day? And get some kind of discount for not using any of the minutes? It’s 150 for me since I’m on a ten day cruise and the unlimited is $199 or $299 if you want streaming. Also, Do you upgrade by seeing the internet manager? Sorry to be dense about this but want to be sure of my options.
  3. Hi. Sailing on the Getaway in Feb. 10 day cruise. Confused about these various options. 1. I have the Free at Sea 150 minutes "free" wifi. 2. I have sapphire status so I have a 20% discount on wifi. 3. Can you purchase the "upgrade" offer ($199 or $299) on board or does it have to be pre-boarding? if I can buy when I board, I can use onboard credits. I realize if you do this you don't also get the 150 minutes from the Free and Sea package. Or: 4. If I don't activate the Free At Sea 150 minutes and instead wait until after midnight the first day of the cruise and then buy the $29 or $39 per day wifi package, will I get any refund for NOT using the free at sea minutes at all? Reason for asking: I am entitled to a 20% discount on wifi due to my latitude status, and will have quite a bit of onboard credit on my account as well. Sorry if this seems complicated, but NCL makes it hard to figure out the best options!
  4. A good tip from Kevin Martin (who is spending a year solo on cruise ships): don't just look at the single supplement. Check the daily cost per day. This gives you a much better idea of value for money. Single supplements or no single supplements, it's cost per day that really counts.
  5. Enjoyed your post. I’ll be doing a b2b on the Gem beginning Jan. 25. I’m also from western Ma. Berkshires. Have a great time
  6. Anyone know how to get the hop on/off bus from this pier? I've only seen one other mention of an excursion (not through NCL, which isn't offering any since this is a turn around day (many of us are staying on for a b to b from and to NY.
  7. Hi.I'm going on a back to back on the Gem (NY-Panama City; Panama City-NY). There's no information on the NCL site about any excursions while the ship is in Panama city (it's there from early morning until midnight, having done the transit the day before). Not even sure where the ship docks. Anyway: has anyone sailed to Panama City and if so, any excursions you can recommend? Would appreciate any thoughts. Best, Laura
