Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. My latest booking also has "AFREESC3" which I don't see in the most recent list. We do have prepaid daily service charges included.
  2. Sorry, missed this until now. Plenty of speed tests throughout the week. 1.3 to 1.9Mb downloads very consistently. However it always functioned for things that can struggle on land with 10x-50x more speed which makes no sense.
  3. Also on this trip (not in the Haven though) with my 11yr old daughter and 7yr old son.
  4. Read about it plenty, never thought it was a better deal than the basic unlimited wifi plan on the ship. 100Mb or 1Gb of data might not be enough, depending on what you plan to use it for. If you have a longer cruise (b2b or approaching the 30 day limit) the texting might be tempting, but for "just" a 7 day or so I don't see the value personally.
  5. Didn't realize the Getaway had starlink. I had the base unlimited plan on the Breakaway Feb of 2023 and was getting 70+Mb/s download on Starlink. December of 2023 we were on Escape without Starlink and got speeds like you're referring to. I'll be on the Joy March 9th and can post some speed test results.
  6. Thanks for sharing, we are on our shuttle bus headed to the port to embark now. Safe travels home!
  7. We embark the day you disembark with the alternate itinerary. I'll be curious of two things, one far more important than the other. 1. Are the hashbrowns back? Way down the list: 2. What internet speeds are you seeing? We were last on Escape December of 2022 and the speed was less than exciting. The Breakaway in February of 2023 (with Starlink) was significantly faster and actually usable. Enjoy your trip!
  8. I tried chat on the NCL website and their response was: "Those are discounts through your Travel Agency. Free prepaid service charges, and a percentage off discount." I do have other promo codes on the confirmation that actually do mean free prepaid service charges and the 50% off offer* they are currently marketing so I'm not convinced this is an accurate answer. *farce
  9. For anyone who finds this in the future, our re-price put us on 1 point per night, even though there was an active 2 extra point per night promotion on at the time. Turns out that had some fine print about only for new reservations, and since we were after final payment we were ineligible as the discount was given as FCC.
  10. Here are two that aren't on the list but are on my most recent booking. AFREESC FLEXNET any idea on either of those?
  11. We were on the Escape, 12/3 departure from Port Canaveral, due in to Puerto Plata on 12/5 (day 2). We docked at Amber Cove, and on day 6 NCL issued approx $19/passenger OBC to each account for the 'inconvenience'. Must have been plenty of people complaining, we were on an NCL Excursion to Ocean World the whole day so we didn't really notice the change.
  12. We did a price adjustment during the Black Friday sale where there was actually 2 extra points per night.
  13. We just returned from a 7 day cruise on escape in a minisuite, it was booked during an insider offer, and the confirmation had promo code LADTBLX, which I believe is the code for an extra point per night. We were credited for 7 points, which leaves us 1 point shy of Platinum. I filled out the missing cruise portion of the latitudes rewards cruise history and have yet to hear anything, 9 days so far. I did call the Latitudes desk and they claimed I've done all I can and there is no one I can talk to this issue about. They also said response to the form I filled out can take upwards of 30 days. I need this cleared up before our next sailing in February as I have booked reservations for upcharge dining assuming we'd get the Platinum vouchers. Our travel agent claims they don't have anyone to reach out to for the latitudes program. Does anyone have experience or advice? Just waiting for NCL to get a look at this is not ideal.
  14. According to the NCL included drinks flyer, yes.
  15. I swear honey, I'm just noticing all of the young ones have Seltzers...
