I got my husband’s military status approved today but I don’t know how to apply it to my booked cruise. It says it’s good for my next booking and I can look for my next cruise but that’s it.

Sea42 thanks! Can this be applied to an already booked cruise sailing next year?

What OBC is available for military and how is it obtained?

When do the crowds start thinning out? We’re booked next year first week in Sept.

From the videos I’ve seen on YouTube, yes that’s where the fridge is. If you do a search on YouTube for Neptune suites and your ship, you may find one showing the outlets. Harr Travel is really good at pointing those out.

Thanks everyone for all the wealth of information!!! What an awesome group this is!

Thanks for the info! Do they have towels and robes available in the Thermal Suite?

I’m hoping the end of Aug, first week in Sept most kids will be back in school. Thanks!

Thanks y’all!!! That does help. 😊

I’m so glad to find questions and threads full ofanswers like this! Our first cruise is just over a year away so I have lots of questions and learned a lot on this thread.

Hi! We’re booked for our first ever cruise on Noordam to Alaska but it’s just over a year away. I was thinking of getting the thermal suite pass for my mother and I but was wondering if it’s worth it on the Noordam. I can’t find much info anywhere but it looks like all that’s included is the thermal pool, the heated loungers and some steam rooms but no sauna. Is this correct? Another concern is the chlorine smell in the thermal pool. You know how some pools can have a very strong chlorine smell? Is that the case here? I’m a bit sensitive to chlorine so that is a big concern if I’m in there several times during our 7 night trip. Thanks for any insight you can give me!

Are the spas different on different class ships? We're going on our first ever cruise next year on the noordam to Alaska. I've been eyeing the 7 day pass.

That's sad! Maybe because it's summer there's no darker beer? I know many of our local breweries discontinue the darker beers during the summer. I agree, in a time of so many craft breweries there should be more on board. IPAs - 🤮 Barrel aged stouts are where it's at!

I’m thinking about getting the Thermal Suite 7 Day Cruise pass. We’re booked for Aug. 31 2025 to Alaska on the Noordam. I’m bringing my elderly mother. Is this pass worth the money and is the Thermal Suite the same on all ships? What is included? The description is a bit vague.

I guess that could be it. Doesn’t seem that far to me but I’ve never been on a cruise before. Thanks!

Thank you. I had seen this deck plan before but am still confused as to why SC is less desirable. I can see they are located closer to the back of the ship instead of the middle but wouldn’t that make the ones close to the front about the same? (SA7047 vs SC7085) Is there something else that makes SC less desirable?

Thank you, Crystalspin!

Hi! Complete newbie here. I mean, this will be our first cruise ever. We sailing on the Noordam next summer. I have a ton of questions but for now, can anyone tell me the difference between the SB and SC cabins? I know they’re Neptune suites but is there a big difference in size or something?
