If this is the finished product I think someone was trying to be different and "artsy". I will reserve judgement until I see it but for now....let's just say it doesn't look attractive in the pictures. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mentioned tipping really well.....in general terms what would that be double the so called standard of 15%...triple that....or a fifty at the end of the cruise....please you don't have to share...I know its a very personal question.

Thanks, Remember if you have the drink package promo which most do you have already paid gratuities in advance to the tune of 20%. Just a reminder for when you are deciding how much "extra" to tip if you so choose to do. Edited November 12, 2019 by ColeThornton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggieq Posted November 12, 2019 #263 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Great review and pics. We were on this sailing as well - first time NCL Other than the picture left on our bed the last day, did you receive anything else to commemorate this sailing? I was shocked at the lack of hoopla and attention paid to being the first sailing. Very pleased with some aspects of the cruise and not so much with others. I wrote a quick review; which doesn’t come close to yours. Thanks for sharing with others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guest services guy said he tried to talk them out of it, and that he expected they would refund their money. Had Onda for dinner, and we very much enjoyed it. Much better than La Cucina, in my opinion. With our dining plan we were told 2 apps, entree, and dessert each, which was plenty. Well, more than plenty. 3 of the 4 apps we ordered were huge. The entrees were huge, too. Guns n Rojas were fabulous both nights. Best band I’ve ever seen in a ship. They rocked the atrium tonight. I believe I saw this guy on the 6th or 7th day returning the passes! Sorry but that was dumb for him to buy them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well... I wondered in there when it wasn't open. It just had those portable line things. I walked around took some pictures and even dipped under one in full view of a staff member and he didn't even acknowledge me at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And looking forward to this band on Encore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
