Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. I was delighted to find out that they can change the temps of those infinity pools depending on the weather! Some days they were nearly hot tub temp on our Iceland cruise πŸ™‚
  2. You can self disembark at any time was my understanding when we overnighted there. I think they might have asked you to let them know in advance if you planned to do that though, I recall an announcement, but I think that's just so they know you are gone for good. We did clearance onboard prior to arriving in Reykjavik, the day before on board in the Observation Lounge. Your passport is stamped so you're essentially good to go from the moment you dock in Reykjavik and can get off the boat.
  3. We had a huge price drop on our cruise about 60 days out I believe and when we reached out about that NCL hummed and hawwed for weeks and finally came back and let us know that because the airfare portion of our booking had increased in price, that it offset any decrease in the cruise fare and therefore they would not be extending us any credit relevant to the price drop. So I guess a slight buyer beware on getting airfare with NCL if you would like to take advantage of price drop credits?
  4. Just got off the Prima this month and it really exceeded my expectations! I read the reviews and the drama and all that (those are still valid points!) but our experience was a dream. We didn't experience lengthy bar line ups, noise in staterooms, bad customer service or difficulty in getting space in any venue except for two experiences: - One cold sea day we tried to go to Indulge at noon (our mistake) and struggled to find seating but we did find some. Every other time we found a spot right away. - Syds and Improv but that's a given at this point. We knew going in that unless we planned to queue in advance that we weren't getting in and that was the truth but we were prepared for that. The crew was awesome, everything was clean and everything we needed we got. Our cruise was actually overbooked by a bit so she was FULL FULL on a cold weather cruise and I wouldn't hesitate to rebook my next cruise on the same ship πŸ™‚
  5. We just finished this itinerary at the beginning of July in a forward balcony cabin 11710 and we LOVED having the balcony. We are Canadian but IMO we had the most beautiful amazing weather, not even any rain in Geiranger . The only day we really didn't care to use our balcony was the day we crossed the North Sea from Norway to Iceland and only because of the wind. Even on the days were the seas were a little rougher we barely felt any movement, we felt it more in the aft than anywhere else. TRUST ME you want a balcony for the fjords, plus with such high mountains on each side you don't get much wind in that passage at all the water was like glass it was incredible. It was nice not having to stay up late/get up early in the mornings and stand on Deck 8 to watch sail in/sail out, we got a Starbucks or a cocktail and enjoyed the view πŸ™‚ I think our coldest day was in Akureryi, it was 10C with some wind and every other day I was sweating to be honest, even Reykjavik was 17C and sunny 😳
  6. Does anyone happen to know if NCL will provide garment steaming upon request (for a fee is fine)? My partner and I are getting married at the end of our cruise during an overnight and I imagine our attire will be a little crinkly after travelling 😬 If so, who is the best person to ask about this? The stateroom attendant? TIA!
  7. Appreciate your experience as I was just pondering National Express yesterday! I booked a second refundable hotel at the airport just in case the timing is wonky with the flights but hoping to transfer to Southampton and stay there the night before rather than Heathrow area πŸ™‚
  8. This is what I kind of assumed with it being a smaller airport, thank you for confirming that!
  9. Hello! I'm hoping this isn't too annoying of a question but couldn't find it answered elsewhere. We are sailing out of Southampton this summer and have booked our flights from Canada with NCL on the promo with a 1 day deviation on each end. The one thing NCL couldn't tell me though is if their flights would likely have us coming into Southampton or London. Does anyone have experience with this? Do they typically aim to have you arrive in the port city you are departing from? I'm only wondering for the purposes of booking hotel or transfers, the other bits of the mystery don't bother me too much πŸ™‚ Thank you!
  10. I'd also add to this, that even in September there will still be quite a bit of midnight sun left (it may not get dark enough at night for long enough to see them) I live in rural Northern Canada and our lighting conditions are very rarely right for aurora outside of the dead of winter, I maybe see them once a year 😬
