Put in an imaginary booking and the list of rooms will come up. You can also check some of the on line TA's...like travelocity or expedia.

 

Hope this helps!

I tried this but Aug 23 doesn't even show up anymore (too close I assume) so I was curious if there was another way. Dying to know if the cruise will be full or not :)

Is there a way to see how many rooms are still open on our upcoming cruise (I'm curious). My cruise is 6 days away

After my initial call, I got an email with the choices I could make within a day or two. I sent that back and got a confirmation email with my choices a day or two later. Sorry you are having trouble getting your confirmation :(

I found out we have Virginia for our concierge. Glad to hear she is great!! Can't wait to go. 20 days and counting!

Just called the pre-concierge and didn't really know what to expect. Informed Darius that I was a first time cruiser and wasn't sure what to request. I was informed that an email would come in the next 24-48 hours with various requests I could make. Very friendly and sweet but I had the assumption all this would be done on the phone call? Maybe because I wasn't sure what I could request, it was felt it would be easier via email? I did ask about soda/water (bringing it onboard) and confirmed it was ok (put in a bag OR you can have your suite number put right on it for the porters). Also said I can do the same with diapers (put room number right on the box). Guess I will fill out my form when I get it and know then what to expect :)

Ahhh must have been. I can't recall now :( We did book last summer so it was 9+ months out. I was thinking I had $300 OBC but when I checked my NCL it said $450 which I was excited about that! Not even 100% sure how it works? We can apply it to whatever our bill is onboard?

Thanks Jim - much appreciated!! I will be sure to let our butler know :-) I go through milk at home like it's gold!!:rolleyes:

I read above that some got $300 OBC for the suite, guess we got lucky (booked real early) because I got $450 OBC!! I plan to get a nice massage, maybe use it for some drinks? Any suggestions on BEST things to use your OBC for?

We joke that we've ruined our kids for "real cruising" now that they've had priority treatment for embarkation and seating at shows. Hope this helps!

My hubby and I keep saying the same thing. Our cruise is Aug 23-30, it is our first family vacation since our 3 year old was born and our first cruise. We are in 12506 and super excited. Room seems like it will be plenty big for our family of 5 as well. I did have a question, are you able to get milk for the room (our little one still likes it before bed)? Thanks in advance!! :)

Got our priority luggage tags this week and a letter informing us about the pre-concierge ability with the website link and phone number we can call. I wasn't expecting that as so many said they were never informed :D

Thanks again! I checked out #43! Very cool. We opted for a family suite without balcony because of the 3 year old. I just felt much better not having to worry about him. Instead of the balcony we have a wall of windows so still nice and bright wih plenty of room ;-) love all your pictures, I am getting so excited

Wonderful pictures! I enjoyed looking through them all. It just got me excited again about our cruise in August! Thank you!

What a wonderful view from that balcony. Was that the balcony off your room?? We are staying in a family suite in August and I cannot wait. I know the childrens faces are going to simply light up when they see the boat and how beautiful it is!

Wonderful pictures! I enjoyed looking through them all. It just got me excited again about our cruise in August! Thank you!

Thank you for sharing this info - I had no idea!!! I will be sure to call and set up some stuff before hand. So much easier to do before I am there with 3 kids and the hubby onboard ;)

"We used foam pillows last September on the Gem and there were great. The fridge is small, but you can fit about 5 bottles of wine. Yes, you can ask for just about anything from your Butler and if you request milk it will most likely come with gummy bears and cookies.:D"

OH MY - my children are going to LOOOOOVE that. They adore gummy bears! I will be sure to ask the butler for that! Thanks for the heads up.

What is a "bar setup". I am curious now... any info would be awesome! Do they also provide green tea (my hubby drinks it daily). Stupid question - does it cost extra? Thanks again!

Great info Gail - thank you SO much. It will be my first family cruise and we have a 7 and 9 year old (plus a 3 year old). I'll be sure to explain about the games!! Any other kids club info you have would be wonderful!
