  1. If your looking for something fun with kids in Majorca, have a look at Pirates adventure 20 cab from port. Its an award winning dinner show and if you have a late departure from Majorca its something different. Food is midling but the show is amazing even as adults we love it. Id skip Rome its an early start, long day and quite busy and to see in a day is too intense while still being 1.5 hours away
  2. Already paid for our September 24th 2024 vibe pass and like you if i hadn't vibe i dont think i would sail it. Vibe is a big part of my sailing
  3. Booked the Ta, loved Viva so looking forward to all the sea days exploring the ship. Having never done a TA , this will be fun
  4. Vibe on the Viva, was amazing Curly, Michael, Madde Jasimne made my stay first class and i wouldn't have sailed without it even on a 9 night port intensive cruise i used it daily .
  5. Having not sailing Prima , i am not to sure but there is no starbucks now in Indulge and seems to be extra seating
  6. Just home from a great trip on the VIVA , what a great trip even if we did have to miss Mykonos due to the strike in Athens port , everything was great food and staff top class. Highly recommend vibe beach club. Already looking at my next trip
  7. Thanks Steamboats , hope your well. I remember the NCl Escape from Hamburg with ye :)
  8. Thanks , we are on the VIVA sister ship but very little information on the VIVA yet
  9. Sailing Sept 4th, cant wait but anyone kinda apprehensive that there is no photos circulating or videos. Its like a mystery, and we dont know what to expect
  10. Vibe booked for September 4th, Getting closer to sail date now 😉
  11. Got mine too, Sailing September 4th
  12. Im on the September 4th sailing so fingers crossed. But i am not making payment until final payment 5th August
  13. Loving the reviews, great to see ye back sailing. Still remember the laughs we had on the Hamburg to Southampton cruise and the night in the Hotel.
  14. Following along great review so far done the same itinerary September 1st on the Joy in the Haven it was a great trip
  15. Great photos Steff, we are just back from the Joy to Bermuda. Have the Greek isles booked for next September on the Viva so good to see pics of the Prima.
  16. We left the Joy as you boarded, we had a great 5 day Haven sailing to Bermuda. While we didn't intend to spend a lot of time in the Haven as we had a forward penthouse the staff and service was second to none and we spent a lot of time in it. Outside the Haven our favorite bar was the Cavern on the Waterfront , all food was great from taste to Manhattan to the Haven restaurant and Cagney's. The only gripe was we had premium + and while we had our included MOET bottles the waiter would not let us bring the remaining bottle with us we had to finish it there. Enjoy the rest of the HAVEN and your trip, we just got back to Ireland yesterday.
  17. Ask for an AMF there strong 😉 or a mud slide with creme de menthe in it .
  18. Currently in a forward penthouse on the NCL Joy Sept 1, bit on both 2 bedroom haven suites and 2 aft penthouse suites. Received notification we have been outbid on the 2 bedroom suites but aft still stands. We have only bid minimum so not getting our hopes up
  19. We stayed on deck 9 on the Getaway and there was no view from the porthole and the crew bar, we have deck 12 12108 on the Joy in 3 weeks.
  20. We will do, we are going to book our pre tests with onpoint , as we fly into NYC 3 days early so will schedule test for either the Tuesday 30th or Wednesday 31st August

  22. We are currently in a HG forward penthouse September 1, 5 night sailing to Bermuda. We currently have bid on the following but not getting our hopes up: H5/6 , 475 EURO PP 900 EURO TOTAL HB/C 325/305 EURO PP 650/610 EURO TOTAL While the second bathroom/shower in the aft penthouse would be great for the 3rd adult , if we are unsuccessful we will cope. The 5/6 would be a dream but at the same time 900 euro could go a long way.
  23. We also go in September to Bermuda , September 1 for a 5 night sailing but i cant see much changing although Carnival are drooping testing.
