Interesting. I went in December and they went to great lengths to explain where the pigs came from, how they were treated, etc. But there are different locations - the one I took was from GSC.

Yep - on the Bliss. Almost all my remaining Amazon packages for the trip arrived today. It's amazing what I can find that I absolutely need to have a week before any trip I take! See ya soon.

This particular one I requested almost a month ago but the cruise isn't for another 2 months. My PCC put in the request. I asked him last week and he told me they might not answer for awhile. I am also cruising this Saturday and just put in a request right before the 14-day cutoff - haven't heard anything on that either.

Just received notification that 100% fcc was approved for price-drop after final payment. FCC should appear in my account after the cruise, in 2 months. And yes, I did have the NCL airfare but it was still a promo when I applied for the fcc.

Very few meals were included. A couple of the tours included lunch, hotel might include breakfast, depending on the location. Best to plan on meals on your own.

NCL is trying to make up for some of the Latitudes benefits (tours, etc) that are unavailable and this is an excerpt of what was in my cabin 2 weeks ago on the Jewel: "You may now use one voucher towards a dinner for two at Cagney's, LeBistro, Onda or Ocean Blue, which will include a free bottle of wine. The second voucher can now be redeemed at any other specialty dining package qualifying restaurant towards a dinner for two. Your menu selections will be subject to the same terms and conditions as the Specialty Dining Package."

Thank you for posting on this forum. Although NCL will be booking my flights, it's valuable information. NCL has multiple cruises from Stockholm - and checking the cruise air forum isn't exactly on my radar.

Haven't been to Sitka yet but going on the Bliss next week. Booked the Sea Otters, Raptors & Bears excursion. But that's because I go to Alaska especially for the scenery & wildlife.

Cruisemapper also shows it headed out, was supposed to be there until 11pm. Maybe weather related? There are various marine warnings around Washington.

Might have started out that way but on the Bliss next week and there are 10 NCL excursions in Victoria. We're scheduled from 7:30 to midnight, not that much shorter than Ketchikan or Juneau for this trip. Butchart Gardens is certainly doable. Me, I'll be looking for Orcas and other wildlife.

Both There are 2 (3?) movie channels where you have no control and don't know what is playing unless you can get a list from Guest Services. Same as watching TV at home. There is also a PPV movie option where you can choose what you want to watch - available to everyone as far as I know for a fee - which I assume would be waived if it's one of your perks.

In the past when I had a GTY cabin, I got my assignment within a week or so of booking. But I have a GTY cabin for Alaska in September, booked a couple of weeks ago, and haven't heard anything. Seems really early to be in GTY status already - not looking good for a price break! And this is GTY for balcony, not sailaway.

I don't take it. Allergic to wine, don't drink at all. Even the soda package is over priced for me. The water out of the faucet is just fine and you can pay individual price for anything you want.

Go to guest services and have it adjusted when you get on board.

Check your credit card - refunded implies to me anyway that they did an upgrade, then rescinded it for some reason. Anytime I've made a change to my reservation I've just gotten a new offer to bid.

Chances are pretty high that she no longer works for NCL, although I would expect that if you sent an email it would come back as unknown recipient.

The 6-month restriction on the double-up promo has been eliminated through June 30, 2022. You can now use 2 certificates on NEW bookings, balcony or better. https://www.ncl.com/popup/cruisenext_terms
