By 4 pm, your luggage will be at the door to your stateroom where a hazmat team will bag your luggage and remove it from the ship. 

Yikes!!  I would say more but don't want to sidetrack your fine thread.

Do they do contract tracing on the bags that were loaded onto the ship next to yours?  😉

 

More on topic, is that restaurant status board based on a number in your party or just in general?

It’s about 55 degrees out with a gale force wind across the deck at the moment. Not much demand for loungers.

I'd like to see that.  Wish they would fix the webcam.  It's still showing 4am yesterday.

Can you clarify if the time we signed up for is to show up for covid testing or to have covid testing prior to this time to be in terminal? 

[KruzPrincess]

Did they have Covid testing options for people who are handicapped or have reduced mobility? That’s a long line to stand in for some people. 

[FlGoodShips]

Thank you for posting officers.

I really appreciate all you do for the rest of us until we cruise again.

Have a fantastic, fun time🥳

The medivac has been complete and we have resumed our voyage to Icy Strait. The Canadian Coast Guard flew out to pick up an ill passenger.

Any idea how many passengers are onboard? Does it seem crowded at all?

General status on how full restaurants are (red=full, no more reservations)

@BirdTravels Question: I have seen on videos on YouTube for past NCL Alaska Cruises (like back in 2019) that showed Crab legs in the Buffet at dinner (it looked like both Snow and King), is this a normal thing on an Alaskan cruise and can you let me know if it becomes available on your cruise. I am 2 weeks behind you and can't wait!

There will be more videos. Today is Valentine’s Day, Christmas, New Years Day, Independence Day, and all of the Birthdays not celebrated on NCL ships due to the pandemic.

The NCL time is for arrival at the terminal. If you have a timed appointment with Eurofin, that’s for your test.

Nothing from the cruise line. The COVID testing center said that they were testing 2700 passenger.  I will investigate more.

I’m loving your review so far! Excellent information and the pictures are fantastic! I do have a question though. Where did you have a chance to sign up for a time with eurofins? Did I miss this? We’re signed up but didn’t have an opportunity to choose a time. Thanks!

Should I have a timed appointment with Eurofin??? We board August 14.

Our Eruofin registration did not have a time. Others seemed to have appointment times. Their whole process was goofy.

That buffet theme is SO FUN. Best thing ever. Wanted to do something similar with my family when we finally got together but never had the time to pull it off.

Oh my gosh. Looks like NCL has done this inaugural sailing RIGHT. I'm overwhelmed! What an absolutely wonderful idea. I'm misty eyed.
