  1. This is the primary reason we are going in May, not later in the summer!
  2. I will bring 2 bottles of wine and go back to smuggling the rest.
  3. I will absolutely go back to smuggling if this keeps up. #sorrynotsorry
  4. Not anymore. They were measuring the pours on our Symphony cruise in March. It's absurd. I love Royal, but not so sure we are going to stick with them.
  5. It's ridiculous! $99/day for the beverage package?! They are nuts.
  6. my last NCL cruise was on the Encore in March 2020, before the shutdown.
  7. There has been a letter in my cabin, with the name and phone number. I have used it on occasion to make dinner reservations when I could not get in to a restaurant on my own.
  8. We have always had access to concierge since becoming platinum. It has never been an issue. Not sure why others are having issues ....
  9. Oh ok. My cruise is a loooooong time away. November 2023. Was just curious!
  10. When do they usually start offering excursions and drink packages?
  11. Holy cow! This looks SO much better than Jamies!
  12. Be careful - received a cancellation email from "NCL" with a zip file attached to it. It's obviously a scam. Just warning others so they don't click anything. It looks official, but it's not.
  13. Bird, we are doing this same itinerary in December. Maybe you know the answer to my question. For the platinum dinners - can one be used at Onda? The fine print on the web site is confusing. Thank you!
  14. Hi - can you use on of your Platinum meals at Onda on the Encore?
  15. Hi - if you use a casino promo code to book your reservation, do you still earn loyalty points?
  16. Royal, IMO, is more upscale than NCL, so the cruise fare is a little higher. We sail both lines a lot, and we like both for different reasons. I would not pay $74pp for the drink package. The most we have paid is $60pp, and that was just on the Symphony in March. I would probably go up to $65pp, but that's it. With Royal, bottled water, fresh squeezed juices, and your speciality coffees are also includes in the drink package. Milk shakes from Johnny Rockets are included as well. Also, you are looking at around $13 per drink on Royal. Wine would be around 10 or so.
  17. Not true at all. I responded with the correct answer to the OP. The issue is, IF you were to encounter another pandemic, and have to cancel for a FCC, you only get a FCC for what was actually paid to the cruise line. The balance would be an "in house" credit, forcing you to use the same TA again. They tried it with me, and lost. I got a FCC for the cruise line, and a refund from the TA for the rest.
