No port day cruises would not bother me in the least. Surprised they are not already available. To those of us that have already been to Cozumel many times it would be a nice change of pace. But I guess they need to make some stops along the way to get more food, alcohol, and supplies.
As of 2016, "cruises to nowhere" have been unavailable from US ports.

I think the over all problem is you are just tired of NCL's particular brand of crap. Cruise on another line for awhile until you get sick of their brand of crap. It is why we try really hard to not do consecutive cruises on any particular cruise line.
Except for Harvest Cay.
Everyone should boycott Harvest Cay. It isn't Belize. It is a deal between NCL and the Belize government. The people from Belize lost big on the Harvest Cay scam. What is even worse is unless you have an excursion on the mainland purchased thru NCL you have to pay extra to get to the mainland and only are allowed on if and when there is room on the tender that goes from Harvest Cay to the mainland.
I've seen the Belize mainland. I prefer Harvest Caye.

Yes, whoever makes the reservation should request 6. They'll sort it all out at the table.

If you are that nervous, bring gloves or wash your hands prior to eating.
Or just stay home.

If I saw this happening in the buffet line, I would leave immediately, never to return. But not before pointing it out to staff.
Pass.

Why would they lower the price on cabins that were unavailable? Why would they even need to?
-
Why would they drop the price if the category is sold out ? 🙄

Nothing to see here. Move along.

I've never had an issue booking dining reservations on the ship. Do not stress it.
shof515's recommendation above is solid if you are wanting a reservation at a peak time. If your preference is to dine early, you should have no problems.

Why does it matter to you what anyone else is wearing? Dress up, or not, it's your choice. Nobody else will give it a second thought.

Orlando (Port Canaveral) is nowhere comparable to eastern Asia. This is unwarranted and unnecessary panic.

Does this mean that when reservations open up at about 120 day out that those two will not be accepting reservations??
No, it does not mean that at all.

I was just looking at the rewards for bronze latitudes members. Does anyone know what kind of sparkling wine will be provided and is there a non-alcoholic version available?
It is below the quality of wine that Carnival offers as their "free bottle" in the steakhouse. Given that Carnival's steakhouses are about the same level as Western Sizzler, I'll leave it to you to determine if it is potable or not.

Was it Skyy or Svedka? I remember it wasn't exactly a high-end vodka.
I want to say Svedka. On the Getaway it was right next to Sugarcane, and we never saw anyone ever go in there.

Due to lack of interest, this venue closed and reopened as something else on the Getaway,

Hand sanitizers are worthless. They are right up there with bottled water and TSA-approved luggage locks.

Nope, absolutely not.

No, I book the category I want upfront.

Is perhaps your light requesting service not set correctly?

I've never seen a special on the water packages on board. We always pre-purchase the package.
Ignore those who say the water out of the tap is the same as in the restaurants. It isn't. It is chlorinated and smells (and tastes) like pool water. Sometimes its off-color and heavily chlorinated. The water in the buffet, restaurants and bars does not have the chlorine taste, as it is carbon filtered, but it is still often "flat" tasting to me. On longer cruises it's often distilled from sea water that is re-mineralized to make it suitable for drinking (shorter cruises, or ones that don't get too far from shore often just use tap water from the port, then it's treated with pool chlorine). Don't worry about safety with the distilled water; while too much distilled water is bad, the ship's water is safe after this processing, and their safety standards are very stringent. But to me it tastes like $3 wine does to a wine connoisseur.
And remember, Evian spelled backwards is N-A-I-V-E

Since you asked, I've never bothered with them in nearly 40 years of cruising. I am of the opinion that the people who need lanyards wore mitten clips as children. YMMV.
