Ah ok. I should’ve guessed. I never tried that since I am beyond happy with the brunch cheese grits. I’ve had acceptable shrimp and grits before. I will pass on that. 🤣🤣

Thanks. I’ll wait to make specialty dining reservations in that case. I don’t mind eating alone but I do enjoy sharing meals with others.

What’s his brunch dish?

How does this affect the dining for the majority of ships, which don't have his restaurant?

ah ok. I was so focused on the will they or won't they water part of this discussion, I took the exclusion part to be specifically about the water and not the general package exclusions.

I'll be sailing solo on the Jewel in March. All of my previous cruises on NCL have been on ships with studio cabins, so they had the daily solo gatherings. Will these be held on the Jewel?

I'm pretty sure bottled water is different from the carton water. The bottled water is fancy Italian water I think...still and sparking. That Flow water in the carton is alkaline spring water. I don't really like it, but I'll drink it for free. LOL. I'd drink tap water before I'd buy it though.

The $500 is the Haven CND. So it seems the OBC for those are significantly less. $2000 only gets you $500 OBC

This is showing on all of my current bookings. Unfortunately, I can't find what the exclusions are

I'm quoting you but this isn't directed at you 🙂 Would people feel better if the lists weren't updated as supply issues occur and are resolved? I feel like they're damned if they do, damned if they don't. Communicate too much, communicate too little. I did notice that the 12/9 list had the 1792 small batch bourbon listed on each package. This one changes the P+ 1792 bourbon to the full proof. I do like the fact that they specify where some of the liquors will be found. Do all ships have a whiskey bar?

I remember when I had a lot of different FCCs from cancelled bookings, I always had to call if I wanted to apply more that 2 to a sailing. Sometimes I would get an error message but usually, applying the third would knock one of the previous credits off of the payment.

April 2024 is still showing no cruises for the Glory and I still haven't received any emails regarding it. I called this morning and the rep looked through her ship announcements and saw nothing for the Glory. She reached out to someone else and they told her the sailings are sold out. I really find that hard to believe. But she could only repeat the information she was given.

Thanks. It was my question so I am quite aware of what was asked.

Plus gratuities and possibly sales tax. Sounds like one expensive drink. But it doesn’t look like any drinks that I’d be interested in are over $20 anyway. But this definitely makes me more conscious of being aware of the differences between cruise lines.

Ok. My next NCL cruise is from Panama so I will make a note on how priority check in works for me.

Thanks

I have NEVER been able to purchase a fishbowl or bucket of beer if I had CHEERS. I know other people have been able to, but not me. I did have a wonderful poolside server though who would always come back around with a huge “shot” of Tito’s to add to my Tito’s and cranberry. I have also been able to purchase a round of shots in the souvenir shot glasses during dinner in the MDR. I think they might be more lenient if they see you’re with a group?

That was my question. Substitute $24 for $22.

The beverage package does not include beverages delivered to your room. You would have to purchase any setup for the room.

Yes, I definitely hope to return the favor. I have had some wonderful dinners courtesy of some very gracious Platinum and above cruisers. Great. I wasn't sure if I had to wait around for them to call platinum again. Good to know I can just get in the line of whatever numbered group is boarding.

So I must be a real outlier in that I rarely use my FAS meal vouchers.

I don't like scotch. But someone told me there are unpeated scotches that I might like. Do you know if Carnival carries any unpeated ones or would they be over $20 ones anyway?

I guess I won’t be spending time in the casino.

I have to spend more time checking out the buffet. I think I only ate breakfast there.

They want anyone who is feeling sick to visit the medical center and be tested for COVID. That's my guess.
