  1. If you need your clothes washed or dry cleaned during your cruise, laundry services are available on all Norwegian ships. Your clothes will be returned the next day, or the same day by special request. Prices vary from garment to garment but keep an eye out, discounts are available.
  2. Our Star our brunch was an Indian themed buffet. Many of the servers were traditional costumes. They also had music. I think it was $10.
  3. We had three dinners at Le Bistro and, as a vegetarian, I was tired of the Napoleon de Legumes. It's good but not in the mood for the third. So I ordered the pizza from the kids menu and I loved it. Just a plain delicious cheese pizza! It really hit the spot.
  4. We always buy NCL's platinum plan that includes cancel for any reason. Never had to use any part of it until last cruise. My spouse had a backache that just wouldn't quit and he was out of ibuprofen. Decided to visit the medical center. He explained that he gets this a lot and iburofen works but we're out. They gave him an injection and some ibuprofen tabs. Success. i figured that since it was a chronic condition the insurance would not cover it. Wasn't even going to bother to get the forms from the medical center, but they dropped them off at our cabin. I figured there would be lots of hoops, but no! I uploaded the bill from the medical center, explained we had medicare so they would not cover out of the country. Two days later we got the approval email and very clear instructions on how to get the payment: they would send a check, issue an e-check, or PayPal. Chose PayPal and it was instant! No fees no nothing! YMMV with a larger claim.
  5. I am vegetarian, which can be a challenge. So I really appreciate the Cauliflower Steak ras el hanout in Oceal Blue. The napoleon de legumes in Le Bistro is another favorite!
  6. We told our butler that we really liked bar mix, M&Ms, cheese and crackers, BLTs and PBJs and that any would be greatly appreciated. He served us a nice rotating mix. On embarkation there were already some snack bowls covered with plastic wrap as I had mentioned this to the pre-cruise concierge. I also discovered that in the Observation Lounge there is an assortment of snacks in a section called build-your-own-trail mix. That was a lot of fun. Have a great cruise!
  7. They go over the storage in the main living room here.
  8. If you get a letter from your doctors to that effect and submit it to NCL they will waive the requirement. We did this when my spouse was on medication that meant he could have no alcohol.
  9. Only for guests who purchase treatments.
  10. We were on that cruise! A bit disappointed when we got the email but the reality was just fine. Lots of specialty restaurants! And Cagney's made a lovely breakfast and lunch locale.
  11. I prefer the HC suite when available. In general we like the port suites which are the 171** (Just back from a 12 day where the only available suite was the 2 bedroom. I was using a scooter and I really appreciated that extra wide door in the HC.)
  12. I think it's the teen club and the video arcade.
  13. They have access, with a fee. It's a nice little thermal spa, but not like the ones on the bigger ships.
  14. Norwegian Cruise Line has introduced an enhanced room service menu. The new menu offers an expanded selection for breakfast, in addition to a wider variety of options available 24 hours. Individual items on the menu remain available on a complimentary basis and a convenience charge of up to $9.95 USD will be added to each order placed (Morning coffee, continental breakfast and orders placed by guests sailing in The Haven will not attract a charge)*. A 20% gratuity and beverage service charge will be added for non-complimentary beverages and special occasion items. *Prices subject to change.
  15. We did not get tags in the mail for our last two cruises and then suddenly we got them for the upcoming cruise. I guess it is hit or miss. We still print them out and put them in a holder from Amazon and we'll add the "real" ones on the morning of the cruise.
  16. We always have the Beverage package removed and then just add the soda package. Cheaper than the open bar FAS
  17. Deck 17 has a running/walking track in the mornings. As the day goes on it gets pretty blocked by chairs. Sports Complex (upper level) has combined sports court (basketball/volleyball), Ropes Course, Zip Line, Race Track (Ferrari TM go-karts), Rock Climbing Wall, Mini-Golf Course.
  18. We asked for non-alcoholic wine and it was really good!
  19. https://inspirediagnostics.com/ncl/ This website may be helpful for your questions.
  20. Always a hot topic! Is it because it is distributed at the discretion of Managemen? Or because it is ultimately up to the discretion of the passenger?
  21. We also had a wonderful experience on Pride of America. And Chris, the concierge, is a dream! So glad you had a good time
  22. Roasted Cauliflower Steak / Ras al Hanout / Almonds / Grapes at Oceal Blue is one of my favorites!
  23. No laundry included, but there will be specials.
