Most of the NCL Eastern Caribbean ships go to Europe in the summer

Very hot in July and chance of Hurricanes in August in the Eastern Carib

Better book early we had 4 dinners free and could only use 3 since we didn't want to eat at 9pm

we go on 6/17  and NCL told me to put down people to people 

I told them I had no intention of taking an excursion

I chose a sailaway ocean view on the NCL Sky for a 6/17 trip

and was offered to upgrade I put in a low bid for a balcony  but never heard anything

13 days to go and no room assignment yet

maybe I will be in cargo with the goats and chickens

WE were offered an upgrade on the 3/1 cruise but are happy where we are at

So we didn't make an offer

We were on the Jade about 14 months ago and just went up a floor to avoid the casino

going again in 2 weeks and expect no problems if you avoid the casino

We went on a 50 ft sailboat over near Lucaya

It was an excursion we booked thru NCL

4 or 5 hours beautiful sailing They cooked us lunch onboard and some snorkeling

A very relaxing day

Just drive to Miami tomorrow and away we go on the Jade

Reagan

UBP is also good on the private islands also

Reagan

NCL Jade

4 to go

Reagan

We are going on the NCL Jade on 11/6 out of Miami

I had options for check in time

There were two slots open for 1000 to 1030 we chose 1030 to 1100

I am more upset about excursions except in Jamaica

but that is a another topic

Reagan

Just google

Is "xxxx" a tender port?

Thats how I checked the ports on our cruise

Reagan

This is the same itinerary for our March 23rd Jade cruise. I was ready to cancel when I found out about Jamaica and Cayman before this was sent out. I am back on again, as I have never been to the ABCs. On the old itinerary 5 of 6 ports would have been new to me, now it is 4 out of 5, though I have been to Jamaica, just not to Falmouth. Plus an extra sea day means more free drinks!!!

Resorts for a day has a Hilton Resort near Falmouth. We are going there for the day (I Think)

I have been to Grand Cayman before its a nice place but don't care much for Jamaica

We were changed from 6 ports to 5. I called NCL about a refund for Taxes and port charges since we are not going to the 6th port hoping for a little extra onboard credit but they said I had to wait till post cruise for it

Reagan

We are also on the 11/6 Jade cruise and received emails from NCL and a phone call from our TA

I wished they could have left St Lucia and Barbados on the trip instead of Jamaica

Reagan

We are sailing on the Jade on 11/6 and received our new itinerary on 10/6

happy to know where we are going but no excursions posted yet

Reagan

We leave on the Jade and just received our new sailing with 30 days to go

San Juan ,St Thomas,St Martin,Dominica,St lucia and Barbados all were eliminated

We are now going to Grand Cayman,Jamaica,Aruba,Bonaire and Curacao instead

I wished they could have left St Lucia and Barbados in but at least its not the Western Caribbean

Reagan

Check with "Resorts for a Day" on the internet

We have used them a couple of times and were very happy

They will tell you in there are day passes on St John

85 days

WE complained the second day and the staff said the had multiple complaints

We never saw her again after that

Reagan

On the NCL Dawn in 2014 a much older woman kept coming to the breakfast buffet in her bathrobe which she neglected to keep closed

2 mornings and then she disappeared

Reagan

I make sure I am familiar with the ship by looking at the deck plan on NCL website

otherwise I am lost the first day especially on the large ship

Reagan

Twice now we were supposed to go to GSC and the seas were too rough to tender in. Very disappointed

One day we will make it there

Reagan

We had the UBP on the Getaway and I tried to frequent the same bar and bartender all the time My tips were already included but I tipped extra

They will remember you

I also tipped our room steward the first day We would go to breakfast at 630 and our room was already made when we returned

They all work long hours and they appreciate the extra money

We were on the Getaway on Thanksgiving 2015

A million kids on board

We had cabin 13836 It was on the bump of the ship so the balcony was a little larger very quiet area of the ship

I live in Jensen Beach, Fl and you don't have to be a member to purchase alcohol
