NYCglitter....Wonderful pictures! Thanks for posting them. It brought me right back to my Dawn cruise in Feb. and it has hightened my anticipation for our trip on the Jewel in October. I know we have 5 months to wait .... seeing your pictures has made me wish it were tomorrow! (even tho the anticipation is an important part of cruising) Thanks again. It looks like you had a great time.

 

Happy cruising!

We had a great time. How can you not. With a Martini clinic on Monday and then one again on Staturday to help numb the Sunday "I don't wanna leave the ship" blues.

Thanks, you are too kind. Most of the time we felt sunburned and windblown, not too glittery! We had fun and that's what is important!

What are tender tickets -And when are they needed ??

I thought that if you were taking a tender to leave the ship it was

1st come 1st serve.

If we have a mini suite are we given special treatment ?

Tender tickets are part of an organized debarkation system NCL uses when going to the private island. NCL will remind you to stop by the cruise desk and pick up tickets, they are handed out by times, the earlier you get in line to get your tickets, the better time slot you will have to get to the island. You aren't necessarily guaranteed any special treatment in a mini suite, however, we stopped by and met Carlos the concierge (whom you have access to in a mini suite) and asked if there was any way we could get VIP tender tickets. He delivered them to our room and they were good for any tender at the time of our choice. We got off the boat bright and early and had great chairs with an umbrella right on the beach!

added a little poll for some fun?

[tommy2811]

i would like to know if you experienced some of the things i did.

Sorry you feel this way. I would love to hear your review about what you did not like about the ship besides the weather. I have never heard such a strong negative statement about a cruise. I know there are some things on a cruise that we all may not like but....... you have a right to your opinion, but cheesey and cheap? Love to know what is cheesey and cheap? This strong statement blows me away.

What do you expect from someone who doesn't even know how to spell "spaghetti?"

 

As for the question about tender tickets, once the initial big crowd is off, you don't need tender tickets for the rest of the day.

 

They are intended to manage crowd control.

 

Now, if only they had (free) umbrella and chair tickets, so the people who sleep in a bit don't have to sit in the baking sun while others recline across two chairs with two umbrellas shading them from the sun.

Despite the lame spelling of Italian food, I hope everyone enjoyed the photo's (in this post). We had a BLAST!!!!
