Countdown to something big?

[Lyman713]

Received an email from NCL this morning - the email was a "countdown to something big" with a link to their facebook page. The facebook page describes a countdown to "a surprise you're gonna love." The counter runs down at midnight Sunday night/Monday morning.

 

Is this just another "sale"? Or perhaps an announcement of the new ship itineraries and dates they will start booking?

 

The teaser email worked for me - I'm wondering what the big surprise will be!!

Judging from an email I got from a TA - intinerary and booking dates for the first new ship, Breakaway. Email actually says when booking will start but I really do not think they were supposed to release this info yet.

The surfing tie-in is sooooo mysterious:D

I know it's not likely, but I'd take this one! Princess, Disney, RCCL and CCL will all have ships in Galveston. Perhaps NCL should join them. :D

The big news is that they were only kidding about the names of the new ships and are going to reveal the new serious names that people wont laugh at.

[oldguysandgalls]

I thought the big news was about the re-naming the new ships to "Broke-Away" and "Got-Away" ? But that sounded too serious ;)

I think that maybe we will get to surf on the new ships(like RCCL)

[camz]

I received the email too and didn't think much of it as I thought it was just another photo contest. Guess we will have to stay tuned.................

Maybe they will do the Canadian itinerary too. I would love to do a 7 night RT, not a 10 one way.

[mpk218]

Hey gang , is there a Deck plan out yet for the "Go-away" or the other one the "Drift-away" /??;)

That's what we need - more variety. You can only do the 7 day Bahamas itinerary so many times no matter how much you love the ship.

You had me sooooo excited ...for a minute!!! :p

Thats what I thought.

I must say, I am not familiar with this concept. Is this something really cool or would it fizzle out like the ice skating on the Epic?

[AttilaTheFun]

I posted this yesterday, but apparently the post was removed - maybe because I mentioned a specific travel agency?

 

ANYWAY - I got an email from "some travel agency" this week saying Getaway bookings would open on 10/10, so the countdown timing seems to point to that. Excited to hear what the itinerary is too!

[sjbdtz]

Still would have preferred YourWay, and Highway.

 

 

Think of the marketing ops:

 

 

- Life is 'the' Highway

 

- At NCL, it's YourWay or the Highway

 

 

 

Or with blatant disregard for Trademark... Highway of the Seas. :D

Oh yeah!! And then they're bringing the Breakaway to Seattle and doing round-trip cruises to Canada and the Pacific coast! I see little green men, too! :D:D

[Bars7816]

Thought that email was really going to tell me the itinerary. But, alas, nothing. What a letdown.

 

Did they keep the Epic's itinerary a secret? Can't remember.
