Rare shanefm3 Posted March 23 #1 Share Posted March 23 After a circular conversation with NCL, they refuse to give me a price for the thermal spa cost for a cruise out of New York on Apr 29th. The fare is now $1000 but I'd like to know ballpark cost of both spa and Wi-Fi. It seems to me to be ridiculous not to be transparent and to have to make a reservation to get this info makes no sense Anyone please help me so I can make an informed decision Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone who is booked on the cruise could look in their planner to see cost. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ship makes a difference. On the Epic in January a 7 day thermal pass was $299 pp on our 11 day cruise coming up on the Jewel an 11 day thermal pass is $259 pp. You should be able to go into my NCL and check out the price of the thermal spa. I see it on coming up cruise and it was on the Epic online also Edited March 23 by ready2cruzagain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a Transatlantic with so many sea days, I think it is money well spent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellis1138 Posted March 23 #6 Share Posted March 23 The Escape, which is Breakaway+ like the Getaway (I think) had a price of $299 for 7 days ($43/day) in Sept 2023. For your TA, I would extrapolate the amount to be $41/day (if it's less, you can be pleasantly surprised). So it should be around $574, ballpark. Premium Wifi should be between $300 and $350. I could be absolutely wrong. But these seem like they would be the right numbers. And a 14 day TA seems like the perfect time to have a thermal suite pass and premium wifi. (As opposed to the Pride of America 7 day Hawaii one, in which you don't need either one.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKstages Posted March 23 #7 Share Posted March 23 the agent wasn't being difficult. they have no insight into the price, in the same way that guests don't. my understanding is that the thermal suite pricing is dynamic and depends on a number of factors, including the number of days, ship, itinerary and the season. the pricing only becomes available once the reservation is booked, and only if you are 365 days or fewer from the sail date. if the vibe pricing is an indicator, passes tend to max out at ten days. so, a ten or fourteen day cruise would be the same price. i can't provide a price, though.

floridafish Posted March 25 #12 Share Posted March 25 I'm on the Escape, April 8, TA 16 night. I have the thermal spa pass @ $379 and worth every penny. Especially on a TA this time of year. I had it last summer as well on the Prima from Iceland to Norway and it was wonderful. Why can't they give you a price? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yikes! I just went to find the price for this poor fellow and noticed thermal suite pricing is now dynamic. I had no idea it changed over - one of those "operational updates" NCL decided not to tell us about. Welp - OP, your guess is as good as mine. But, you can go to a roll call and ask those who are already booked what the price is. @JandC_Cruising recommended. It'll be right that day. Might go up (likely not down) the next since pricing is now dynamic and no longer static as it was just a few short months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UKstages Posted March 25 #16 Share Posted March 25 huh? i have no concerns whatsoever. i'm a pretty happy go lucky guy. i myself am not concerned about availability or price. my only concern was answering your question! the OP is unable to check his reservation, as you just have, because the OP does not yet have a reservation, as you do. that was kind of the entire point of the thread... how to determine the price of the thermal spa when you have no insight because you have no reservation. sadly, it can not be done reliably.

I along with a few others posted what they are paying for thermal passes. A 16 night cruise price point wouldn't give OP an outside number on what pass might cost?
