Any suggestions for cocktails covered by the classic package?

Are there self service laundries on board the ship? If so…do they take quarters?

What is WCB?

Going on Constellation in May,2024…looks like minimal drinks are covered under the Classic Drink Package which we have….does anyone know know which cocktails are covered…and are the basic wines…white, red, rose and Prosecco covered…keep seeing different answers to these questions. If you just want a cocktail , can you order, for example, a classic cosmopolitan….and will they make one with cheaper vodka…I see posts where cruisers say the bartenders shake their heads when asked…true?

I did take the tour many years ago..on our own.. not a ship tour. It was definitely not worth it! We went at night…very hard to see the Bioluminescence ….not just me..everyone on tour agreed..we still joke about it…

Are there a good number of books in the library to borrow…or should we bring our own? Thank you for your responses!

Boarding Caribbean Princess on Jan. 14…can you tell me if they have a decent library…also what movies are playing on board? Thank you!

Hi CCs 

we are thinking of booking a Krka excursion which goes for 5 hours 

so we would be dropped off back at the NCL cruise terminal with a few hours to spare 

is getting around Zadar near the ships port easy? is there plenty to see there or do we need to hop back in a 2nd tour or taxi? 

please send ideas to fill in a few hours 🙂 

if it makes any difference we have 2 children aged 6 and 9 with us. 

Although we are going on a different ship, I am interested in going to Krka…can you tell me which tour you are going on? Thank you.

Wondering if there are differences between the 3 main dining-rooms….Palm, Coral, Island…we are doing Anytime Dining…and curious to see if people have any preferences…..

How does one find the digital boarding pass on the Medallion App?

On the day, our 12 day British Isles cruise ends, we hope to take this excursion/transfer from Princess: Transfer from Southhampton to Heathrow via Windsor Town (not the castle). Our flight to the states leaves about 5:15 PM….the listed time of the excursion/transfer is 7:30AM-1:15PM….my question is: Do we get to the airport at 1:15PM or are we done at Windsor Town at 1:15 PM with an hour plus drive to airport ahead of us. Usually there is an “Excursion Details” tab available to read(which would probably answer this question) as you choose your excursion/transfer….there is none on this one. I have called Princess twice about this…the 2 people I talked with told me they “think it probably means we leave Windsor at 1:15” but they really were not sure…and said there was no one they could ask!! Seems like a basic question to me…..has anyone ever taken this? Or does anyone have an answer to this? 
 

What is the most reasonable way to get from cruise port in Belfast to HOHO bus? Also in May, would you advise getting HOHO tix in advance or are they always available? Thank you.

Does anyone know how to get between the German Museum and the Underground Hospital? I know Buses 91 and 92 go to the Museum and Bus 71 goes to the Tunnels/ Hospital, but how do you get between them?

Have not sailed since pre Covid….do you need resies for all shows now? If so, can you make them the first day? Is there an app for this…or what is the procedure? Thank you!

Did you make a resies at the official Massport place that provides shuttle buses? If so, we’re you allowed to enter prior to 3 pm? If you made a resie at another place, can you give me the name, location and phone number? This is crazy…have worried about this for awhile…and now my fears are coming true! Thank you!

I just received an email from lot C-1 that my reservation that I have had for over 3 months is cancelled. I went on the MassPort site and booked another parking reservation. I am not sure why this parking is an issue now I have taken cruises from Boston this year and it wasn't a problem. I hope you find parking as well. Just wanted to let you know that lot C-1 cancelled my reservation

How do you access luggage tags?

Called C-1 which is located on Black Falcon Ave…and was told I did not need reservations to park there…but after reading your post, I am worried we will be turned away…not sure why this is so difficult…..I started looking into this months ago…

and was told there is no cruise on the date our ship is going…although during the past week, they finally say “yes” there is a sailing, but now only have reservation times after 3 pm…which is pretty late for a 5 pm sailing where you require a shuttle from the garage and need to be checked in 90 mins prior to sailing….I have my fingers crossed!

Are most of the women on your cruise wearing shorts, capris or long pants? Still warm enough for shorts and capris in CT …but not sure if that will be warm enough for the same cruise you are on,,,leaving this coming Sunday. Please advise.

Also…can anyone advise me on where to park at the terminal in Boston? I called the MassPort garage that seems to be the official garage for the terminal…and they are telling me that there is no ship leaving the 25th,,,,are there other parking sites close? Please advise.

Regarding the ArriveCAN….how do you add travelers who are traveling with you? Do you scan all their documents as well? I cannot seem to find the link to do this on the app? It seems like it is just taking my information…is there an option to do this for my spouse at the end of the app? Please advise.

I see that Massport offers parking offsite which requires a shuttle and reservations. Is there a more convenient parking site right at the cruiseport or close to it. Please advise.

is there any advantage to pre- buying HOHO tickets in these cities as far as allowing us to board bus quicker at the cruiseport....or does everyone go in the same line? Thank you for your response. Also , I think there are several HOHO companies in each city...does anyone prefer one over the other?

Thank you for taking the time for such a thorough and helpful reply. Greatly appreciated.
