Can you post a menu from the Sports Bar? I can't find one with on line searching? Also, what hours is it open? TIA

I'm actually not sure because I drink unsweetened but, being a born & bred Southern Gal, I will say I find it pretty unpalatable. The Arnold Palmer, half tea & half lemonade, is more tolerable. The lemonade is sweetened.

Yes, coffee, tea ( hot or iced ), lemonade, Arnold Palmers, juice (NOT fresh squeezed) , milk, & ,of course, tap water. I think that covers it.

I had no FCC's, no cancelled cruises, & happen to be Sapphire but others got it who were not. The 2 $100 coupons were titled "Welcome back to cruising" (paraphrasing) but no explanation for the 10% off. A thread was done on this when they first starting showing up on some accounts back in July.

I found 2 $100 coupons & a 10% off coupon, called directly to NCL, & saved $667, so you can do it without a TA.

So for my upcoming Sirena cruise, the difference between "cruise only" & "Cruise with Olife/air" was $1000 for which I got a "choose all 3" Ultimate deal as well as air booking directly with O so I certainly feel I got a great deal. I think everyone should just see a what works best or them.

I can't find what is considered as "proof" of vaccination for US citizens as it seems to discuss EU digital certificates & exceptions for some non-EU countries, but the US is not listed. Am I missing it? My proof is my CDC card. TIA

I use a cheap ( Dollar General ) cloth cellphone crossbody purse that weighs nothing. It zips close at the top. It doesn't bang around like a heavier material.

Thanks. That is what I have been reading but others seemed to think not & I wanted someone to confirm that I was understanding the rules. As you are from Palma De Mallorca, I will take this as the latest rules.

Are we still required to fill out the said authorization when FLYING into Spain? I know Covid testing isn't required if we are fully vaccinated.

Thank goodness I won't have to 🏊 to the closest shore from wherever it was they were going to disembark us.

OK, I am totally at sea, every pun intended! The OP said it was a 2024 cruise. Post #4 shows a cruise for 2022 which happens to be my upcoming cruise and when I log into my account, that is what is showing as my new itinerary. When I look for a TA on Sirena for 2024 there are none showing. I have not received an email re any changes to my TA. I don't know where to embark nor where to disembark now.

Thanks. That was what I was reading on the Spanish Travel Health site but I wanted a first person report. I will fill mine out before my TA in Nov. As I have a transit thru Munich, I may not need it as I will be traveling from one EU county to another EU country but best to be prepared.

Thanks. I checked there first and there was an older post re the form being necessary but I wanted a current take on it since the "no Covid test" changes. I read the rules on the website before I posted my ? but I wanted some real person experience as things are ever changing.

I know Spain doesn't require Covid test for fully vaxxed & boosted travelers entering the country, but it seems they still require a health form pre-entry. At least that's what their travel website still says. Anyone have any current experience with this form? The rules are different if coming by sea according to the website. I am asking ONLY about airport entry. TIA.

My WC blues are solved. I dug around in my DH's change bowl & found enough euros from our 2019 cruise to tide me over for a bit. We only have 2 euro ports on our TA so I may not even need them.

Yes, I know this. This....I just want some change for the public bathrooms!

Yes, we will use no foreign exchange fee credit cards for most purchases but chump change comes in handy on pit stops. We will get some euros at the first ATM we happen upon & buy something that will get us change back. MY credit union uses PLUS & Cirrus network ATMs.

Thanks. We'll pick up some euros along the way. Especially some change for public toilets.

If I use an ATM on board Ocenaia during a TA, do I have the option of EUROS vs USD when cashing out? We have Spain & Portugal on our itinerary.

I understand that most cruise lines make arrangements for excursions even on holidays so you might can go that route for some sightseeing.

Thanks. We were considering the Premium Plus upgrade & wanted to be sure Pellegrino was the sparkling water of choice.

Is Pellegrino available on NCL ships? If not, what "sparkling water" is on the menu.

Entirely different but suitable for mix & match. They look like they would travel well. I have a dress that is actually reversible so it works great on a cruise. 2 for the price of one & on a long cruise, 4 for the price of 1.

It's hard enough to get an Irish Coffee from just any random bar, much less a non-boozy coffee. And, IMHO, born & raised in the South where iced tea is the "house wine", the tea on NCL is a pitiful facsimile! O'Sheehan's generally has coffee so you might luck up.
