We knew we had a long, really long, wait at Newark for our transfer to ship, because we had a red eye. So Mike found a solution to the problem by having breakfast at nearby airport Marriott. After a nice breakfast and rest we went back to baggage claim. Another 45 minute wait we were transferred to the terminal. Easy check in, waited at latitudes area. Nice. Got onboard. Went strait to pool bar for a couple of painkillers and other awesome drinks. Met Jake and Chantel bartenders and some nice folks. While we were waiting for our rooms, we brought our bathing suits for the jacuzzi. Smart move if you are not embarrassed, everyone was kinda jealous.

Hi Everybody! We are Joyce and Mike (mid 60’s); traveling with a friend, Glenna early (70’s). We are from Southern California. We are sapphire latitudes, booked through casinos at sea on Black Friday offer last year, used cruise next offers that we had before coved, used free at sea offer for flights and transfers. We booked an aft facing regular balcony, (breakaway has a huge balcony on aft, we heard, so we watched a you tube video to confirm; yep it’s true)! Glenna first started out as a solo cabin, then was upgraded to inside. She didn’t like her inside that much. I don’t know if you’ve ever seen a solo but they are tiny but well thought out with smart lighting etc. I like to research and plan our trips to maximize the experience, but I leave a lot of down time and time that is unplanned like days at sea. We took a leap of faith leaving the booking of the airline to NCL. (Probably won’t be doing it again, not worth waiting around for transfers). We upgraded to more legroom seats once we finally got our confirmation code. Glenna upgraded from middle to aisle. Met at airport, spent too much money here before our flight:

Joy and Jerry’s thank you so much! You saved us $100’s of dollars!
