Water???

So am I correct in reading that you are not allowed to bring bottled water on board anymore? I was recently on Royal and they didn't seem to have any issue with it. I can understand alcohol but water?

Correct.

You are correct. NCL and Royal Caribbean are two different companies and their policies are not aligned; Royal says you can bring it on and NCL says you can't.

I don't have to fly... so not concerned about luggage weight limit, I'm taking my Brita filter jug for the room.

I can understand alcohol but water?

Too many people were sneaking in alcohol disguised as water.:mad:

You would think NCL would almost be encouraging people smuggling alcohol since most everyone has UBP. Maybe they should change their policy to only guests with UBP are allowed to bring water, soda and alcohol aboard. Would save them money. LOL.

Simple solution, drink the FREE water that you can almost anywhere on the ship!

Kind of bizarre (il)Logic here my friend. That in no way saves NCL any money.

Remember that that is true every time you board. If you take water off in the morning remember to empty the bottle before you try to board or you will lose the bottle.

I made the mistake of buying water on board this past cruise and wound up not drinking most of it because I brought along two insulated travel mugs and just had them filled with ice water or soda. The water is filtered and just as good as bottled on the ship and free.

booking through UK all inclusive we had 18 1 litre bottles of water in our cabin for 9 day cruise!

there were still 12 left at the end [plus 4 small bottles for platinum plus]

 

make friends with a European/UK cruiser who has gone all inclusive and they will probably share some of theirs with you!

Since bottled water is not even included in the UBP I just order a 12 pack to be in my cabin the first day. I think it was $34.00. I think NCL is the only cruise line that doesn't include bottled water in their packages and they are the most expensive. Celebrity included fresh juices, bottled water, specialty coffees. I have had it with NCL policies. :(

I will be willing to share my free 7 litre water when I cruise... we get 1 litre/day on the UK deal... I’m quite happy drinking the ships water...

Actually, RCI says NO BEVERAGES of any kind....but it's not always enforced. The ship's water is the same stuff that's in those bottles...so we avoid lugging water with us!

In the same way one can’t take water on a plane, I personally feel slightly more safe with the policy to not allow passengers to bring water onboard. I personally work with chemicals that look just like water, and can be put in plastic containers (they come in plastic totes) but if mixed with each other or sometimes a small amount of actual water, off gas explosive gasses. I’m not saying this is behind NCL’s policy, but definitely behind airlines policies. When I see pictures of people taking on cases of water onto other lines, i always think about that.

Every bottle of water that is brought on board generates plastic wast that has to be disposed of, and NCL has to pay to get rid of the waste. Don't ever buy are bring water in plastic bottles. Drink tap water out of a reusable bottle, and if necessary buy a filter. The tap water on every cruise ship is filtered much more than any bottled water, anyway.

I wish they would ban bottled water. Not straws. Seriously.

At least the water bottles can be recycled, where straws mostly aren't.

Except now that China is no longer recycling the west's plastic, many of the recyclables are going to landfills.

Then I would venture to guess, unless NCL has contract with a recyle company other than China, they will be banned soon. I'd also guess that many US cities will start to ban them just like they are straws. I think a city in Massachussetts has already banned single serve plastic bottles and in San Fracisco they are not sold at city events. Edited August 11, 2018 by NLH Arizona

I tip very well on board and have never had to pay for a bottle of water. You can also get water in the casino.

I wish this would become the norm! recyclable and no plastic parts.

Yeah, I'm sure that's the reason... Lol.

 

I bet it has nothing to do with the fact that NCL is the only company that doesn't give you bottled water in their drink package and forces you to buy a bottled water package!!

Sweet, more beautiful parks.
