  1. Is this the card you have? Looks like they charge $3 a month when it isn't used after 13 months. https://www.ncl.com/giftcard/terms
  2. Looks like they upgraded the intro offer to 25,000 points
  3. I'd still want to try it, prices aren't outrageous compared to pizza near me, plus everyone raves about how delicious these are.
  4. The closest analogy I can think of is this. You're on a cruise for the first time, and you visit one of the beautiful islands in the Caribbean. When you get off the ship, you are dropped off at a village that sells all types of goods - Hermes, Louis Vuitton, Gucci. How many of these items do you think are real and authentic? NFT's are very similar. A lot of NFT's aren't real, or verified, or offer any real utility. (In the case of the Celebrity NFT, the utility is the free trip, not the artwork). People can lose money because they believe they are getting a deal, or they just flat out click a fake phishing link via email or Facebook chat, and they lose the NFTs immediately (like money being drained from your bank account immediately). The worst part is that there is no customer service when you purchase, sell or lose a NFT.
  5. I don't see the winning bidders receiving anything tangible asides from the cruise, the trip, and the experience. Once the event is over, you'll have an animated picture that isn't worth more than a few dollars. You would view the purchase on your MetaMask / OpenSea wallet. It would be similar if you purchased concert tickets from Ticketmaster, and you would check your account for the tickets in your digital wallet. Only the owners of this NFT will be able to click the "Unlocked Content" part, which probably has the instructions for redeeming the trip.
  6. There is absolutely no reason that most Celebrity passengers should purchase a NFT, ever. For reference, I'm a 30 something year old who not only collects and develops NFTs, but I also did social media for Celebrity Cruises, as well as responded on behalf of the cruiseline on these forums years ago as 'Celebrity Cruises'. You'll know it was me if the post started with a variant of "Hi all" I was in shock when I saw Celebrity sharing instructions for creating a NFT wallet and driving customers to OpenSea. I just fear that too many people will lose money or get frustrated trying to learn Web3 in this manner. I wish the best of luck to anyone attempting to buy this or learn more about it. Happy to answer some additional questions if possible.
