Read the fine print and quit trying to cause trouble.  You'll get no takers here.

For the most part what we used to call port charges. NCF has been around for years

It's also normally included in the cruise fare, but it may not be subject to the 50% discount.

NCL Supervisor called me today.

We had a very civil discussion.

Here is the problem...remember seaweb....& NCF...Well -

In the New World of ncl.com.........

Within the $999.00 Cruise Fare is $140 NCF (Non Commisionable Fare)

So the 50% is not off of $999 Cruise Fare -

It is 50% off $999 minus the $140 NCF...

There's The Rub!!!!!!!!! There's The Problem!!!

I pointed out the fine print of the Latitudes email stated 50% off 2nd guest CRUISE FARE... end of discussion, Hanna or No... No mention of NCF's and all that.

She agreed that the email was poorly worded, but would not budge from the price.

We agreed to disagree.

I will continue to watch this cruise...

Thank You all for your help and support.

Ted

and that dear Ted is the sticky point regarding cruising:

You can either afford it or you can't.
