  1. Every single thing you’re complaining about was forewarned in this document, which clearly you didn’t take the 20 minutes to read: https://www.ncl.com/about/terms-and-conditions Oh wait. I know. Your “time is valuable”. Maybe they should have paid you to read it.
  2. If one person calls you a horse, you ignore and walk on. But if ten people call you a horse. Dude. It’s time to buy a saddle. you’re wrong here. They refunded what you spent on the excursion. Now you want money for your ….. time?! Are you NCL’s former customer or their attorney?!
  3. There is no dress code …. On any Norwegian ship ….. ever. With one exception. They request “business smart” in the formal dining rooms. But from the sounds of other experiences they don’t even enforce that.
  4. Also note that if you are using NCL’s travel insurance, you will automatically be charged the difference in cost for a policy for that stateroom.
  5. Someone will have a better response than mine. However, since this question seems to be lunar in recurrance I offer this: Every ship has a map that tells you where the smoking areas are. You know your own sensitivity to how far you need to be from those areas based on the amount of detection you find tolerable. So only you can truly a answer this question. Look at the map, then apply your own tolerance mathematics.
  6. With enough decent sauce, you can make any shoe edible. I thought the purpose for cruise dining was eating the best. Why would anyone celebrate the presence of a venue where you have to make accommodations for its inadequacies, on a luxury cruise liner?
  7. Stuff like this happens everytime a company hires a new manager of something. They always feel like they have to make a big show of themselves when really, usually the company will be just as happy that the building continued not to burn down after the last guy quit.
  8. As soon as you are finished looking at the cruise you’re staking out, go directly to your NCL account online, and scroll down and look for the placard for the cruise you were just looking at. There will be a tiny X in the upper right corner of it. Click it, and the history of that search will be deleted from your account.
  9. This reminds me of when my mother joined a beanie baby club. She was never quite right from that day forward.
  10. NCL Just emailed me to inform me that on the day of debarkation in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, there are no flights departing from the island, neither at TFS nor TFN. So they can't get me a flight until the next day. Further more, Sandy says, they have canceled my return shuttle transfer to the airport because I will be forced to book a hotel to stay the night, or book my own flights, or cancel. (Actually she didn't say the last two, but I know they would be options). And then I would have to find my own transportation to the airport. This isn's a deal breaker for me so far, although I haven't seen what crappy itinerary I'm getting. Just wondering if anyone else on one of the December Canary Island cruises on Sun (there are many, with multiple embark and debark ports) is getting this same email, or is it really just my specific debarkation day that's causing the problem?
  11. No. You can use it the moment you install it to your smartphone and log in to it. I'm guessing you will use it less on board than preparing for your cruise. It may be useful for things like ordering food, making reservations, and picking up the Freestyle Daily. But now is when you want to watch it for potential upgrade bidding, booking excursions, etc. If you're not getting a wi-fi signal you will need to rely on your own cell signal. That can be iffy in certain places, but if all you're doing is updating and sending quick data messages you should be fine just leaving your roaming open for those kinds of communications.
  12. Interesting. I just open my own app to see if I could find the path for marking everything read. And guess what. All of the old emails were marked unread and it showed that I had seven emails. So obviously they have just refreshed the app which has unread all of the messages. Maybe not for everyone but certainly for me and Laszlo. I clicked on every message and the number 7 went away.
  13. Make sure you have clicked on, and read them. This may seem obtuse, but then you're not giving much background.
  14. You “think” that? If you don’t know it, you shouldn’t say it. You’re spreading fake news.
  15. They did, 2016. Relatively recent for a steel giant like a cruise ship. They were actually sliding doors before the dry dock. So they may seem outdated, but some interior designer must have decided they were "chic" or something. Nothing says "make room for me" like smacking someone in the back with a tempered glass door, am I right?
  16. You should already be getting an offer to submit an upgrade bid in your NCL App. The way it looks on mine is that there are Owner's Suite, Aft and Forward Penthouses and Club minis with no mention of fore or aft. If you're not able to see those you should probably update your app.
  17. I’ve had so many horrible driver’s license photos down through the years I’ve stopped caring about this. Those photos don’t show up in a family album. You’re never going to have to show them to anybody but a single person giving you admittance and they’re never going to think about you or you photo again for the rest of their lives.
  18. Can’t a person just ask the steward to do a load of laundry whenever he wants and just pay the menu price? I mean is it not true that the only function of the little $30 bag is to give people a break in the price. But when you need laundry done you can have it whenever you want. The machines are running 24/7. Jees all you old money people taking 3 cruises a year and your wringing your hands about a laundry tab?
  19. Officially NCL asks for Business Casual in all of their main formal dining rooms. A jacket will not be out of place. Flip Flops most certainly will. No one will care. But it will be heard from one end of the dining room to the other. And you don't want him to be .... "That Guy".
