Cover Charges???

Doesn anybody else think it is just plain nutty that NCL will have area's of a ship with cover charges???

And has anybody ever seen people who look and dress like this on a cruise ship?

If you want to party with these beautiful people you will have a to purchase a pass for the week? Does anybody else think that is nutty?


Just for grins I wanted to see what the price difference between NCL and Celebrity would be for a Panama Canal cruise. I looked at two cruises about the same time of year on each line. For a family of 4 in an ocean view cabin it was about $140 a day more for the Celebrity cruise. I guess I could spend $140 a day an get all the extras and eat in the better restaruants on board, but I really think I 'd draw the line at booking a cruise with cover charges for clubs.

$140 a DAY????????? Holy cow!! Forget cover charges!! Nope Suzzane I have never seen a lounge on a ship with all the people looking like that!!

My Signature Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me! I want people to know why I look this way. I've traveled a long way, and some of the roads weren't paved.

They look like lonely girls just waiting for some guys to show up! I only see 3 guys who aren't staff! Maybe it was ladies night.

I guess f3 is aimed a younger crowd

I guess they are targeting F3 to a younger crowd, but that picture is just too funny!!!

I'm trying to remeber the two cruises I priced out. They were both Panama Canal, and I think 13 day. I think the Celebrity cruise was about $1800 more for a family of 4.

I suppose families might not fit in with the young party theme, huh? It's certainly not doing anything for this old lady!

My typo was true

I made a typo once and instead of "Freestyle" I typed "Feestyle", it seems to be more true every day.

When I saw the other day I just thought, another reason for me tonot to cruise NCL.
I think it is just a bit too much to have cover charges in lounges.
