Thank you for this post. We are first time NCL cruisers and the Haven. We have always cruised with RCL in suites so it will be interesting to compare the two. Pricewise, it is about the same for us on both lines. I appreciate the information you provided.

A question about bringing your own wine on board. We usually bring a couple of bottles of Caymus with us. On RCL, they would keep any opened bottles for us and have them the next evening. Does NCL do the same? Is there a limit on what you can bring on? We do have the drink package.

Thank you all for the information on the Haven. We just upgraded to the Haven. Our first NCL cruise. We are sailing on the Bliss. We have sailed with RCL in suites for 30 years and we were happy with that until post covid..... A large group from our area is going so we thought we would give it a try. One question I have is that I have read there is a day butler and a night butler. Should I plan on tipping both or is it a pooled tip?

$15.00 but we're usually not charged.

We board in two weeks. Thank you for all the information!

I always choose "new reservation" and get through to them quickly.

If you are in a Grand suite or up, the concierge can take care of it for you.

For the beach club cabanas, you could buy 2 extra passes. Go to excursions when you board. It might be possible with the other areas, but I have no personal experience with that.

The machines do take cash and sea pass.
