If your airfare drops enough you'll manage a saving!

I just sent her an email asking. Just one of those things I forgot  to do earlier this week :shoot me:

No need to apologise but please let us know what she says - we're holding off booking the April cruise on the Jade to see if we can select an AE or AD cabin.  If not, we'll book an aft facing AF cabin - sound familiar??

For April/May on the Jade don't forget to check the UK prices,

17 May an AF was $200 cheaper through the UK on NCL rates when I checked Tuesday.

Strange, I never got a reply. I will check with a couple folks in Miami on Monday. Interesting if you read the last press release it does not say adding sofa beds but rather upgrading sofa beds in suites. I wounder if they are just upgrading those suites that already have sofa beds. :confused:

Thank you - the first picture with the new paint. The splash of green looks great. They even got the NCLA logo of the stack. Lets see how long until it gets copied and posted on the darkside

I just got an email from Daylene. The reason we did not hear anything was she was out all last week. She is digging out and will try and get an answer for us.

 

Update - Daylene's last day is the 18th she has taken another job outside NCL.

I just got an email and we can add 2 more to the roll call.

Mr. and Mrs Veitch - Colin's parents. I guess we picked the right cruise.

As you all recall however the last time we cruised with them we went thru 2 hurricanes. :shock: Colin assured me we would have midnight sun and calm seas.

Hi Petra, we've just cancelled (our insurance would not pay out if we paid in full and then had to cancel) BUT we fully intend being on the ship.  At the moment I don't know when my treatment will finish but should know after an appointment on 6th May.  Hopefully at that point we'll be re-booking and will meet up with everyone in Southampton.

So - if there's no midnight sun and the seas are not calm - do we receive a full refund :big grin:

I will give you the same advice he gave me when I asked for is help with a family that misssed their cruise with all the airlines folding in the states. Buy insurance :big grin:

According to my help desk if they did not already have a sleeper sofa they are not adding them.  Just changing out ones that are already there. :(

It would have been so nice to be able to book an AE or AD for the 3 of us but we'll just have to make do with aft facing AFs or BAs instead. :big grin:

I know it is tough getting buy in just an aft facing mini but somebody has to do it :big grin:  Pour Tanti is suffering away on the Jewel this week in a Cat G obstucted room she booked last week. Can you imagine the horror of having to spend a week on a cruise ship like that. :roflmao:

If this was a new addition would not a "cabin" go from the inventory or is there a real "owners suite" up for grabs of the regular list?

I am sure they have been booked for a while.

Looks like 2 AFs going back into inventory pushed the price down - showing as $2,799 per person.

They have also pulled $200 off the BA,BB and $100 off all the insides

Someone has released an AD might take them a few days to realise and drop that one to something sensible like they did with the AE.
