LdyMags Posted May 9, 2018 #4551 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Hi all, Booked in a Haven room for our first time about an NCL ship for July on the Bliss - rumor had it that Go Karts were included for Haven guests - anybody aboard the transatlantic able to confirm or deny? Thanks! Sorry if I missed the answer somewhere in the thread. I searched but didn't see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you know that the cruise deck plans site will pay 50 cents a pic for cabin shots? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolChange37 Posted May 9, 2018 #4554 Share Posted May 9, 2018 I have been on many cruises and I'm little confused. Do you have to pay for shows on the Bliss? Is everything (restaurants, shows, coffee) now an extra charge? I see the comments on the Prohibition show being $24.95 etc. Geez, Oh Pete, this is very disappointing since we love cruising and it's now going to be stressful to think about the money being spent after paying for the cruise itself.

It is in the Social Club and the fee covers the 5 cocktails that are served. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare kjquilts Posted May 12, 2018 #4558 Share Posted May 12, 2018 (edited) I keep checking out new Bliss videos posted on Youtube and thought I'd share this one. It isn't in English but includes footage of several areas/things I haven't seen before and I enjoyed watching it. And oh my gosh look at this one. We've never even been on a water slide.... won't be trying out the tubes! Edited May 12, 2018 by kjquilts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I did The DROP(below), there was neither enough water or time to swim. In fact, it goes so fast, I had to do it a second time, with my eyes opened, while DW Catherine took this video. At age 68, it's something I had to do.:p "Catherine, You're next!" Edited May 12, 2018 by $hip$hape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(n)<|3:confused: Nope. You can eat all you want on complimentary restaurants. And all entertainment, except the Prohibition show that include alcohol, is free. If you prepay your daily service charge, you can have a zero bill at the end of the cruise. Yup, if you want to gamble, you want to buy bingo cards, you want to may extra for specialty restaurants, NCL will be happy to take your money. Specialty dining for an additional few has been around on cruise ships for decades. Paying for drinks at a bar, even longer. But it is not necessary to have a wonderful cruise. Heck, when we first started cruising, you had to pay for deck chairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two Wheels Only Posted May 12, 2018 #4564 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Without going through pages on messages ... what are the balcony measurements from a basic side balcony to a mini suite? It depends on which 2 balconies are being compared. In most cases, they are the same size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
familycruzer Posted May 12, 2018 #4565 Share Posted May 12, 2018 It depends on which 2 balconies are being compared. In most cases, they are the same size. So it’s just the cabin size that’s changing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MHKBCrusin Posted May 13, 2018 #4574 Share Posted May 13, 2018 I did it last year on the Escape but not feeling like I want to do it again ... I like the one in the tubes but this one ... not so much. And my poor wife actually got stuck about 70% of the way through. Not that she was to heavy, but that she was too light and lost momentum. Scary wondering what happened to her. The NCL folk opened a door on the curve where she lost momentum and "fished" her out. When I did The DROP(below), there was neither enough water or time to swim.In fact, it goes so fast, I had to do it a second time, with my eyes opened, while DW Catherine took this video.
