Your tip about the shareholder benefit is particularly valid right now since the price of the stock is way down due to the travel restrictions from the COVID-19 problem. The high not too long ago was almost $60 a share. Today's closing was $14.03. Another consideration is that SAME 100 shares can be used to claim the benefit EVERY time you cruise on NCL.

I don’t necessarily agree with the advice to always travel on Norwegian’s larger ships. If, like me, you want your vacations to be restful, not chasing around doing things on and off the ship, a smaller, quieter Norwegian ship may be a better choice. I have gone on Norwegian’s Pride of America around the Hawaiian islands 3 times now and this should show you all how much I enjoy traveling on this small ship. The scenery visible off the ship is also spectacular

NCL cruises are great. I eat all my meals in the dining room or the free restaurants but I do go to the buffet area to get a late night snack (cakes, pastries, cookies or pies) a nice cup of coffee or tea to take back to our room at the end of our night. The shows are really entertaining. On our first two nights at the Casino we did real good, but the smoking casino is really bad. We met some real nice people from all over world. The only thing I didn’t like was leaving from PR. I will leave from Florida next time.

I’m an NCL fan! The best feature of a Norwegian ship is outdoor bars and restaurants as you pointed out. What’s the point of cruising the open seas if your gonna stay inside? I love the Breakaway and Breakaway Plus class ships but don’t discount the smaller ships. They are more relaxing and can cruise to ports where the bigger ships can’t. One reason NCL will be coming out with the smaller Leonardo class ships is to go to more remote destinations with smaller ports. They’ve also remodeled most of the older ships. Added spice H2O and such. But if you have kids or teens the older ships will be boring. I’m on the Star for a 9 day southern Caribbean in March and the recent remodel did away with the slides. My 2021 cruise is on the Joy then 2022 I’m going to book Bliss to AK! Happy cruising 😎

Platinum Plus cruisers on NCL. Enjoyed your video but would like to correct a couple of items: NCL Epic has no fish in the carpet, so no directional help there. Epic is sort of the red-headed step child in the NCL fleet, though she does have a great Haven. Also, Caye is pronounced KEY. We’ve sailed on most of NCL’s ships and had a great time on all, though for my money, I prefer the Jewel Class over the mega-ships.

1) please don’t dis the smaller older ships. Many people love the more traditional feel, less people, ease of getting into the specialty restaurants, and no reservations needed for the main theater. Plus NCL has mad a grand effort in refurbishing the older ships. 2) Free at Sea-there is a gratuity charge for the specialty dining also, under $6 per restaurant no big deal. As for the beverage package tips, about $20 per day for the tips. It will pay for itself by your 3rd drink 3) for best value - compare the GTY or X category and check the cost of promos vs. difference in category price. It might be worth it to go with a Free@Sea cat IF you have 3rd or 4th guests and they are offering Free guests-do the math, it might be cheaper to choose that promo instead of 4 ppl in a GTY cabin. I LOVE NCL, worked for them for 4 years and learned a lot that still enhances my cruise experience.

Elaine Teut We wait until we get on board to let them add the tips automaton our folio, then on Day 2 or 3 I go down to Guest Services and have them remove half. If you prepay you’re tips- you can NOT make any changes on. Lard and will have to wait until you get home and file with Guest Services in Miami- good luck with that. We bring $5s, $10s and a few $20s to hand deliver to the staff that are outstanding. I usually bring a TY note and or postcards from home and a small gift from our area. The cabin stewards usually are very surprised and grateful. We tip $20 for a 3-4 day and at least $50 for a 7 day to our steward. Head waiters/bartenders/bussers: $20/$20/$5-10 And I always have ones for the pool drink folks. Amazing how much better the service gets when you give them a couple bucks. I spoke to one guest and he said he always meets and picks a bartender and tells them, “Here’s a $20 (or $50) to start the week, have my drink ready as I walk up and I’ll give you another at the end.” Best thing you can do is grab some of the vacation hero cards at the start of the cruise and keep them handy and fill them out during the week. That way I don’t forget names and I’m not filling them out last minute at the last breakfast. 😂. Honestly, those cards go to management and the staff members get recognized, promotions and bonuses. Hope this helps. 😊

@PrimaryConsult

Norwegian's older ships are like that (anything built before 2010) and I like them better for it. They do trivia, movies, live music, lesser-known theatrical performances, art auctions, etc - no theme park stuff. Heck the waterslide is being *removed* from their Jewel class ships to provide better sight lines for the pool deck stage for live music. The educational lectures often lead to selling things, though (i.e. spend 30 minutes learning about the history of watches, then 15 minutes learning about the watches for sale on board). Same with the description of ports of call (5 minutes learning about each location, followed by 5 minutes learning about the shore excursions available).

This will be My first cruise is going to be on Norwegian Gem out of NYC March 30,2022. Im so disappointed with NCL. they downgraded us from a full day in D.R. to just an evening in Puerto Rico, then canceled Turks & Caicos, and then totally removed one of the islands St. Thomas from the agenda with no replacement after we had excursions booked. They replaced it with an extra day at sea that's it. I asked for an upgrade or some kind of compensation and the cruise agent was cold and unresponsive to me. I can't believe you can book a trip for 5 islands and they change 3 of them and then remove one island completely off the agenda. I am afraid we might just get to sit on the boat for ten days in NYC harbor with the way this is going . Very upset.

If you do it smart you can make money off selling so I'd recommend being able to hold those shares for a while just incase. No point in buying the shares for the 250 credit just to sell and lose 300 cause you sold your share for less than what you bought.

That's the good thing about cruising. You have options. To us, the big ships have everything the smaller ships have, but also have other things to do and see.

The Free at Sea perks are not savings. You'd have to drink 12(!!!) drinks at minimum per day for the drink package to be worth it.

If you get the Free at Sea drink package, it's $20 per day in gratuities. That's it. That will be paid for in about two cocktails or three beers.

I fully agree. If Tanner is saying $20 a day that’s $140 for 7 nights pp, so $280 for a couple. I don’t drink $140 worth that’s for sure. It’s a money grab I feel.

Ours was only $100 more in the cabin price (oceanview) to be able to choose our cabin and get the Free at Sea. (We wanted to pick our cabin to make sure we weren't in a noisy area anyway.) It's an 8 day cruise so that works out to 12.50 a day plus the 20 per day in gratuities. So 32.50 per day and we'll get our money's worth if we each have 2 cocktails and 2-3 sodas per day. Totally worth it. Plus we got a total of $300 to spend on shore excursions for our other Free at Sea option.

Booked a Balcony, 5 free included (Well the excursions are $50 towards but good) and a solo traveller. 1400 total. BIG heads up for 1st timers....read the ships capabilities! One of my free is internet access HOWEVER they kept asking me to upgrade to Unlimited. All well and fine IF the ship had internet and streaming available in the room. It does NOT! I have to go to one of the wifi cafe' regardless

Oh yea, hit one of the sites looking for last minute deals. My deal was booked only 30 advance notice. They will drop prices dramatically 30-60 days before departure hence the balcony room for 200 more than an inside cabin. Unlimited bar is included but it is a use it of lose it. Trust me I will use it

We booked our 12 day southern cruise in late September and tried to reserve the five specialty restaurants we had paid for but we had no luck. Any restaurant times were either fully booked or were only available for late meals ie. 9 PM. I was advised by NCL that these restaurants "hold" only 30% of all reservation times until customers get on board and reserve at that time. Well let's hope that this is true. I would hate to pay for specialty restaurants and not be able to use them. That would be very upsetting.

My wife and I really enjoyed it. It is one of the older and smaller ships but has been redone recently. Smaller ships have some pros and cons just like bigger ships do. The pool area can get crowded but there are quite a few places on the decks right above the pool decks that have chairs available where you can still hear the entertainment by the pool. We enjoyed a lot of different spots on the ship but especially liked the outdoor café which is on the back of the ship and the Spinakker lounge which is in front of the ship and is glassed in.

It is a bit of a misnomer. If you book without the Free at Sea offer, you pay less. Depending on the total cost of the room and the packages you get, you may still save money. It's important to do the math.
