Last week the BOGO dining package for $40 was available in my Cruise Planner for my November cruise on Anthem of the Seas. I went in today book it today and it's gone. Is this normal? Any idea if it will re-appear? If I call RC, can they add it to my booking? Thanks!

I used Blue Water Divers for snorkeling at Grand Turk. They brought us to a reef first and we had about an hour there. We saw a nurse shark there which was very cool. Afterwards they brought us to the edge of the wall at about 40' and then to 6000'. Very interesting experience and would definitely recommend at atleast once.

At Bonaire, take a ferry over to Klein Bonaire. It's a cheap snorkel excursion (I think it was about $10 pp rt) and it was some of the best snorkeling I've ever experienced. If you are only snorkeling at one port, Bonaire all the way. But considering how cheap Bonaire can be done, I'd recommend to do both.

If you think that you may use your OBC on other things ie: casino, photos etc.... you can always gift them a SDP.

If I read this right, someone can buy a Specialty Dining Plan for another passenger? I'm on an upcoming cruise with a friend who has a bunch of OBC and he's trying to figure out how to use it. Can he buy me a SDP once we are onboard, even if I'm in a different room? Can we do this before we board?

I had a Sail Away Inside for an upcoming Gem 10 day cruise at $589pp. The prices dropped drastically after final payment and my TA was able to upgrade us from Inside to Obstructed OV at no additional cost. I then bid $60pp for a balcony and it was accepted on Friday. So, $649 for a Sail Away Balcony. Not bad considering they are currently $899pp on NCL.

Call - they should move you to ocean view at no cost if OV is less than what you’ve already paid.

Spoke to my TA and they were able to convince NCL to upgrade from Inside to OV after a bit of back and forth. Huge thanks to Cruise Critic for this one otherwise I wouldn't have known to ask for the upgrade. Thanks!

Should I be calling my TA or NCL? I assume my TA, but since I've had no luck there...

just got accepted from an aft (very last room) balcony to a midship mini-suite for $100 total on the 11/5 Getaway.

 

I originally booked an inside stateroom but realized like last week that prices plummeted for our sail date so I called and they bumped me to a balcony for a very small fee, which included adding another perk and $100 more in onboard credit.

If I'm past final payment and booked a guaranteed inside cabin on Gem 12/2 and now Oceanview are cheaper than my inside cabin, is there anything I can do? I have bids in on an Oceanview and Balcony... but not getting my hopes up. I reached out to my TA a while back and they said they couldn't do anything.
