It depends
Do you like to see where you are going or where you have been
I love AFT but FORWARD is definitely the place to be
The balcony is larger and you feel like a king or queen sailing up front
However, the bridge is right above you and the crew can look directly down on you
Either way you can't go wrong
Cheers!!

It depends on your relationship with the concierge
Friends traveled in the haven with niece and nephew who weren't and the concierge Adrian made arrangements so they could eat in Cagney's and enjoy the Havven facilities
This is definitely not the norm and in most cases I heard you the members of your party not in the Haven can't use any of the Haven perks
-
All i can say is location, location.location
I prefer to sail aft but when in the haven i want to be in the haven area
Off the gem in january and it was great having the haven courtyard right outside my door.

Although not the highest of rollers I have booked the last 3 cruises thru CAS. Not once on any of those cruises did anyone from cas come over to me to introduce themselves etc. On this past cruise No one every came around to ask if i needed a drink except for the night they had the white hot party.
I know the attack will begin but CAS employees know who is who by the playing card
Common courtesy would be to say hello to a CAS cruiser and introduce themselves.
Just like the concierge makes it their business to know the guests CAS should do the same.

I heard CAS was open on saturday for a few hours
-
I stayed in a handicapped aft suite
I was told by ncl if they needed the cabin they would move me but it would be to same cabin level or higher
NCL would definitely move you if they needed the cabin
Don't feel bad because if they don't move you they don't ned the cabin

Recently sailed on the Gem and never had a problem booking with the concierge
There was an issue when we booked carneys with carlos the concierge and we found out by accident they didnt have our reservation
That was even after getting a written confirmation from carlos
We did end up getting a new reservation but it was 15 minutes later
No biggie

Is it a definite charge or a "hold" charge
I had several charges on my credit card from NCL after i left the ship and it turned out these charges were not real charges but a "hold" on my account.
Eventually they went away and I did not have to pay for them
-
You should call NCL regarding the Haven since there is no waiter poolside in the Haven
There is a gentlemen who handles the needs of the guests in the Haven but is not considered a waiter
I am sure you will be covered if you order a beverage from him since I have ordered from him in the past and he did charge us. I guess if he can charge for the drinks he can handle the UBP transaction
Beteer check to be safe than sorry
-
Yes (nasty people) I prefer the Haven
If you have a choice you should stay on the same floor as the pool and restaurant in the Haven if possible
Why travel, even if it one floor to get to the Haven
Having it right outside your door is golden
-
When i asked the steward they said i needed to send the laundry in two days prior to the final day of the cruise
-
Dinner at Le Bistro was superb
I enjoyed the behind the scenes tour but you should definitely send your laundry in
They did a great job and I mean a great job
-
sorry didnt mean to re post
Meant to start a thread
-
Don't think it will go away after dry dock
-
Just off the Gem
I thought only charge at O'Sheehan's was for alcohol
-
I think they have a package for 50 minutes and 100 minutes
You can also pay by the minute which is what I did
-
Was on the Gem as well
Dan Dan just doesn't do it for me
Bring back Sinan
-
This time it had to be the beef for two at Le Bistro
However, the filet mignon at cagney's was perfect this time. My table mates didnt care for their bone in rib eye
-
-
I agree Cagney's and Le Bistro
Get the beef for two at Le Bistro
Its extra but worth the money
Moderno is good too
I hate Teppanyaki but I am sure all of you are sick of me saying that lol
But that is my opinion
-
You should ask first
I have never been on a balcony cabin that the adjoining divider opened
Cheers!!
-
NLH was it for two or just one
I was told as a single I could not get any cabin in a category higher than a mini suite
Cheers!!
-
Just called CAS to see about a cruise for next year and they told me there are no discounts for singles in suite and above categories
Has anyone heard of a CAS change in calculation.
Last year I got a nice discount and traveled alone in my cabin
Let me know if you heard of any changes in CAS or how they calculate their discount
Cheers!!

Any reviews or thoughts about this cruise
Cheers!!
