I personally wouldn't insure a free cruise.

may I ask why?(not exactly free since I have to pay almost 700) thanks just trying to gather information. My friend who is going happens to agree with you but I am on the fence.

That $29 figure, I assume that is a per day rate? Have a look at insuremytrip dot com. They offer good rates and better coverage than what NCL offers (IMO).

No that is per person total $29

Hi,

I want to buy my tickets but want to know should I just buy NCL insurance(quoted $29 a person for 7days) or is there a better one with more coverage I should be looking at. Or should I just forego the insurance? I am only responsible for my tax/port fees since this is a casino cruise.

First time cruiser so all new to me. Thanks for your help

Birth control.

 

We have 3 cruise souvenirs at our house ages 19, 17 an 17

Thank you ..too funny! :D

We are booked on the Breakaway for Oct. 5th and the CAS agent said that because we booked through them, the insurance was just $29.00 per person, so I took it. We also sailed on the Breakaway in April with a casino offer but I didn't take the insurance and I was kicking myself because it was a small price to pay for peace of mind.

Mikkar,

funny you should mention this...I was just on the phone inquiring about same date, same cruise! They quoted just shy of $700 total for 2. Does that sound about right? My trigger finger is getting itchy :D

Thanks Yankee! I want to try cruising at least once before I rule it out. just because I have had sea sickness on smaller vessels, I may have better luck with a big guy. So, I will definitely be plying all the tricks of the trade if necessary.

I am hoping the weather will be decent if I go in early October(would love to actually be able to feel warm weather and go swimming) .

I am looking forward to the new adventure!

thanks again! will follow advice and start day before. Also will look into ginger chews.

Thank you for all replies! I did read about the sea sickness cures but was totally confused by all the different good/bad of all. I guess a case of TMI. I think I will just bring bonine and cross my fingers that it does the job.

I will call today about the midship lower deck cabin.

Does anyone know if one gets insurance on trip if you are getting the trip gratis through a casino(I know to expect some cost tax/port/etc) Could not find a post on that.

Thank you!

Mid ship...lower deck. Think of a ride ( like a big swing) the middle/lower moves the least.

Also free sea sickness pills at front desk. We always take one prior to sailing, and everyday-weather we feel we need it or not, and yes, we drink (a lot) while taking them.

Safe sailing

What pills do you feel are most effective? I just do not want to be too tired or to sick to enjoy myself.

Thank you for your help!

Hi all!

This is my first post and 1st cruise ever. I was thinking of booking breakaway in early October and was offered inside cabin(casino promotion). Being one prone to seasickness, which rooms or room area should I ask for?

thank you!
