4 DAYS TO GO

We leave in 4 days, looking forward to it, even though the wifey is driving me nuts.
There seems to be " stuff ready for the cruise" on every available space around the house.
Will post more once we get to the ship.

NCL

I have done lots of research for our upcoming cruise, and have had a few questions for NCL.
In our brochure and here on the UK NCL web site it says very clearly that there are tea and coffee making in all cabins.

The wife was very happy with that, but since then I have discovered that some who have already been on the ship this year say there is just a coffee maker in the cabin.

They do apparently provide tea bags and you have to use the drip type coffee machine for tea making.

I emailed NCL and had a reply saying that there is tea and coffee making in all cabins, so I am now very confused.

Think my missus will be taking her travel kettle with her just in case.
Less than 3 weeks now, so I will let you know all about the cabin very soon.

NCL JADE TO THE MED


Going on a cruise on NCL JADE on June 13th.
Will to try to keep an up to date blog about the ship and ports of call.

Decided to do this when looking on the internet for information about the ship and found that there is not much about.


NCL Jade was previously called Pride of Hawaii and in April was renamed and brought to Europe to cruise the Med.
