I have noticed that on NCL the accessible cabins are the most expensive within that category and it's just not right.  When we booked an inside cabin the only accessible ones are in the "family inside" category which means it's more expensive than just a basic inside.  I definitely don't think it's right. 

The one I saw was Mary Poppins in the back of the ship when I was on it.  

Just get a universal adapter. It will cover both Europe and the UK. They're really cheap on Amazon. 

I looked at MSC's transportation and it is definitely cheaper to take your own train or bus to Amsterdam.  I booked Van Gogh for 10:45 AM and Anne Frank for 2:15 PM.  

If this isn't allowed I apologize. I didn't see anything in the rules against it.

I have 2 CruiseNext Certificates I'd like to sell. They expire 5/13/22. Asking what I paid for them, $125 each.

I had a 10:15 am flight out of Leonardo. We were off the ship and on our way via the shuttle to the airport by 7 AM.

One thing that I was very surprised to learn is that Civi is generally not the more popular Embark port, so there are far less people getting off unlike Barcelona. There was no customs and the longest part was waiting for them to bring the luggage to us. At least when I sailed in May, everyone who disembarked in Civi received the same exact tags in regards to disembark time. It's also important to note that they only made one call and one call only for disembark, unlike Barcelona that they made numerous announcements.

I walked to the port from the train station and it was very easy to navigate so you should have no problems there.

You didn't miss much. I utilized in on the Epic in May and the bag is very, very small. I think I was only able to fit 3-4 items in it.

I took a white noise fan with me on the Epic in May. I had no issues and just made sure to unplug it every day when I left my room. I didn't hide it, as it sat on one of the shelves. I had no problems whatsoever. However, going through the airport my bag with the fan always seems to get searched no matter which bad isit in.

Haven't found much information on the accessible rooms for NCL so I'm hoping others here might be able to help. Are the toilets in the room higher? I know in the regular rooms they can be quiet low, so I'm a little concerned about the height for my father.

I'm not for sure what dates you are going, but the Grand Prix is also the same time as Cannes. I've looked into a couple of private excursions to Monte Carlo during my visit on May 11, but I haven't found any without a disclaimer stating they will visit a different place during these two weekends.

It seems as though NCL is not offering any shore excursions to Monacco or Monte Carlo during our two cruises and the reason that I was given was that it was during the Cannes Film Festival. Private tour companies ARE offering these excursions but I am a bit leery due to the distance of these trips and the possibility of traffic etc. with NOT being on a ship led excursion.

 

We LOVED visiting these places in the past and just would like anyone with experience to chime in....i.e. is it a pretty safe bet that we will get there and back without issues? And if not, what other lovely things should we try to see this time in Cannes?

 

All opinions welcomed!
