I think so, but I've never been on that ship.I'm sure somebody can chime in with the correct info.
By 'full-service' I mean an actual Starbucks, rather than just the cafe where there's a menu, and a sign "Proudly serving Starbucks"

Do I need the actual card, or can I use the Starbucks app? I ask because I can get e-gift cards through a perk at my job, but I'd actually need to go out and buy a card. 

Whether or not you can use the card and/or app depend on the ship.

Not all NCL ships have a 'full-service' Starbucks.  The ones that don't, you can't use the card -- and I'm not positive, but I don't believe you can use the app, either.

California, of course   🙄  .

Like eyeballs - everybody has 2, and they don't always agree on what they're seeing

I know Charleston doesn't want any ships boarding there, but I was under the impression (from what I remember reading) that day stops were still welcome.
And Norfolk suddenly became 'Baltimore South' so it's possible they no longer have room for visiting ships.

That’s fantastic. We will be at the lounge also. See you there. 
 

Mark and Christine. 

Ummm... Have a wonderful trip.  But I won't be there. 

1) I never answered the phone, so I have no clue why I was called.
2) My cruise isn't until November 2025.  I just booked - so far, deposit only.

Actually, CoffeeMate does offer a half & half.  One of my semi-local restaurant chains uses this.
The first time I saw that in the creamer bowl on the table I was appalled -- until I took a closer look at the label 😆.

And I got 3 calls from that number this morning. I don't have voicemail on my cell - keeps 95% of the junk calls away.
It came up as "unknown" and a Google search led me to this post.
I am NOT a Suite guest, nor casino - merely a lowly Oceanview on my first cruise with Princess.
Thanks for the info.

You enjoy your okra and I'll be willing to try it in a gumbo or something.

Try it fried.  Little crispy bites.  I love fried okra, but can barely tolerate it in any other form.

 the vegan chocolate chip recipe!

4,000g flour

4 tbsp baking powder

4 tsp baking powder

4 tbsp baking soda

baking powder twice ?   So 16 teaspoons - ⅓ cup ?

I'm not entirely positive this is what you're looking for.  

The key phrase here is   "Digital Files of all selected photos"
From what I've been led to believe in other forums, this means you get 10 pictures - just the Welcome Aboard, and 8 more that you choose to have printed..
That's not what I'd call a lot.  Apparently, NCL doesn't seem to offer the complete collection of digital photos anywhere.

Yep.. I had so many people I know who don't know that there are two ships there saying "This is fake right?" lol

 

Just a really bad picture to use.

I figured it was obviously not a current picture, since they're nowhere near each other at this time.

Only a year behind  😄
Anyhow, it's still useful information for a noob soon-to-be cruiser like myself.

Hush, kids.  I'm pretty sure the OP ran away screaming a couple pages ago.
 

Thank you, everybody, for the very useful information in this thread.

You've helped me understand some of my options, and what to look for when getting Travel Insurance.

I'm much more confident now that what I selected is the plan that's right for me.

My android phone  also can be used when we travel.  However often a simple old fashioned solution is easier to use.  My simple alarm clock is such a solution.  It is also easier to see at night and it never needs to be kept charged.

The batteries last forever?  

Mine doesn't have batteries.   It's a windup.   Had it for years.
Only time I've had a problem with it was when the alarm went off in the TSA line.  Apparently the switch accidentally got bumped to 'set' when it was put in my bag of 'must-haves'.  🕖🤣

And it’s not known whether the $21.80 is actually a gratuity, or it’s just the “real” price for the “free” package. 

'Real' is what comes out of my wallet.  Anything else is window dressing.

I get that people have flights to catch but maybe make your flights for later in the day…

 

I'd love to make my flights later, but I, probably like many of the 'too-early birds' don't always have a lot of choice. 

My nearest airport is small, and only has one flight a day in/out to many locations.  So - I have the choice to leave from 'home' and have to hurry-scurry to make it to the airport in time for the return flight.

Or I can make a 3 hour or more drive to another airport, where I can choose to select a later flight home. This will cost me more, in time, in airfare, and in gas and parking cost. (I can get transportation to my local airport for under $10.)
