I have no experience with the flights with NCL.
But on this subject, just curious.
How did the original BOGO air work? Let's say, hypothetically, there were 10 passengers going from the same location previously, and direct flights available, would NCL have purchased all 10 direct, even if the last 5 doubled in price? Or would they have booked 5 direct and told 5 others sorry, indirect for you?
Is this new "offer" a way of ensuring you will get the "first 5" whereas previously it might have been a lottery? If so, it could be argued the original BOGO offer has slightly reduced in value?
Sorry if I'm talking nonsense here, but it seems necessary to know how it originally worked ie who got the 8 direct seats before this new 300 offer?
