We leave tomorrow to fly to nyc & embarkation on Sunday, July 28th to Bermuda. I know my family & I will appreciate your tips even more than I do now...keep them coming...I'm watching!!! Thank you so much! Great ideas that we'd never figure until too late I'm sure!
We will be flying to NY early Sunday morning from South Florida. We're on the same sailing as you with 28 family members for a reunion cruise as my son just arrived home from a 9 month deployment in West Africa (USAF) If you see see big blond curly hair you'll know it's me, say Hi
Great tips. Hope not too many people remember your tip to go to back of Garden Cafe. We discovered how much easier it was to find a table and easier to meet up there with our plates. We're on Joy again soon.
I was on the Joy last month on a transatlantic from Southampton to Miami. It was all sea days and a great cruise. I really enjoyed the ship, especially the Observation Lounge. I also enjoyed the Texas BBQ. Great food and plenty of it.
So glad you enjoyed the ship and the cruise8! We're very interested in a transatlantic eventually. Not sure what cruise line, but it would he hard to NOT want an observation lounge for a cruise like that.
Guys, your tips were amazing! We went on the 5 day cruise in late march and had a blast. Your tips made it easy to avoid the crowds and find the great spots, like the observation deck. Bravo!
Next time, try biodegradable green dog poop bags. Used them with my dogs 🐕🐕 and the bags are scented and safe for the environment. Also book the Vibe Beach Club early. They only book 80 packages. We just got off the Prima and has an amazing time. Just note that they only have hot tubs but they do have showers to cool off if need be. It was very quiet and maybe no more that 30 people during our whole cruise. Will always book the VBC on future cruises.
Have a wonderful time! You'll have to let us know what you think of the Haven value wise. I always hear good things but just don't know if the additional amenities and perks are worth the cost. -J
@@ThisHappyPlaceTravel I know it’s so hard to justify the cost these days!! but once we stayed in the Haven and tried to go back to a balcony room there is definitely a difference! Thanks again for the great video!
Oh that's good to know! Definitely something to do early in the cruise if it's on your list of must dos. Super convenient that it can be done from the TV in the room.
Great tips! I am going on the Joy at the end of February. I have been on 34 cruises with NCL because I love the Free Style Cruising. It is hard to go on another cruise line company because we would not have same perks. I have been on most of NCL ships but it will be my first on the Joy.
I'm booked for 14 April for a 7 day (4 land days) cruise to Bermuda. Its just me and my 20 month old baby. Do you have any suggestions for cruising with a toddler ?
Oh my gosh, 4 days in Bermuda, what an absolute dream! As for cruising with a toddler, our son was 10 months and pretty mobile when we were on the Joy. Definitely bring a white noise machine to help drown out sounds in the room and LED tealights so you can move about the room while your baby is sleeping. Be flexible with your schedule and utilize the Guppy's open play hours for place for your babe to run around and burn off some steam. Make sure you get some decent baby sunscreen. And most importantly, take SOOOOO many pictures. I already cherish ours from the cruise seeing how much he's grown in just 6 months! Have the best time ever!
I found your post looking for information on NCL Joy. Could you tell me what floor your cabin was on? I’m trying to decide on Cabin 14872 and 15208. Thank you
Hi guys, great and very informative video I’m pondering going on Norwegian joy for a transatlantic cruise from Southampton in the uk going to Miami USA it’s eleven nights with no stops exactly a lot of sea days also the ship is less than half full after saying that i do like sea days I’m a big fan of going to the gym and love to catch up on my reading also I haven’t mentioned I’m a solo traveler this cruise has a lot of travelers booked on….in your opinion would either of you do it as solo travelers
So glad you found the video to be helpful! That sounds like quite the trip you're considering. Obviously everyone finds their happy place in different ways, so I have a hard time recommending one way or the other on such a long cruise. What I CAN say is if you're the type of person who enjoys the more relaxing and easy going aspects of cruising, then any ship is likely to give you what you're looking for on a transatlantic sailing. Personally, I think we would choose a ship with more variety of amenities and on board entertainment if we were going on a cruise of that length with no stops, but that's something we value a lot in a ship. Check out our ship tour of the Norwegian Joy if you haven't already! It may help you see first hand if the Joy has enough of what you're looking for! ua-cam.com/video/3STk2IUTuOo/v-deo.html
I was on the transatlantic in Feb that you mentioned. It was great. I love TAs, but I have not cruised one with no ports, so I was looking forward to it. The weather was cool and rainy a few days, but I was able to enjoy so many areas inside. Without busy days in ports, the cruise did not fly by and really did seem longer than it was. It really was a great cruise. P.S. there were only 2300 passengers, about 60%. THAT was fantastic!!
The Norwegian App. According to the website, for the Joy, it's still the app called "Cruise Norwegian" and will switch to the new app called "Norwegian Cruise Line" starting on Oct. 26. If I were you, I'd download both just to be safe!
Thank you for the informative video! I do have some questions if that's alright. With my package I have a 1 Meal Specialty Dining included. Does that mean I get to order one entree at the restaurant, or does that include multiple courses? Also, how does purchasing things on the ship work? The site says everything is charged to your OnBoard account, but how does that work exactly and how do you set it up?
So the specialty mealing included will depend on the restaurant. Some include an app, entree, and dessert, some several sharable plates. The server will explain it to you when you are seated. As for charging to an onboard account - everything will be linked to your room card. You can attach a credit card to your name/room before and when you board and every purchase will be charged to that. Or you can settle with cash at Guest services. You have to put a minimum payment down when you board (I think its $350) and then continue to monitor (which you can do through the app). We find it much preferable to just attach a credit card and not have to wait in lines at Guest Services or worry about spending over our cash limit.
I have a question I’ve never been on a cruise before but I’m supposed to cruise on the joy this year and I was curious if there are any gluten-free options on board I couldn’t get any real definitive answers through the cruise line themselves or I’m not sure where I’m supposed to be looking and if you maybe could tell me any information in regards to that
Hi Lisa! Bon Voyage in advance for your upcoming cruise! In general I can say every single time we sat down at either a specialty dining restaurant or at one of the complimentary main dining rooms the crew members always (ALWAYS) asked if we had any allergies or dietary needs. The fact that they asked made me feel confident that the chefs were happy to adapt dishes where they could. I've seen similar sentiments on reddit and NCL's blog regarding GF options. I would just recommend using your own judgment based on your level of sensitivity when going to the buffet or similar style dining option. Even naturally gluten free options have a higher chance of cross contamination there. We'd love to know your experience after the cruise! -J
It felt quite crowded. We had to wait in lines pretty often and the pool deck was always full. But we were doing a lot of things at peak times and could more easily get tables in dining facilities and spots to relax if we did them at "off" times.
Very informative video thanks for posting. We have done 6 NCLs. Since 2014 as Haven guests 5 on Breakaway class including the Joy. 1 transatlantic Nov 2023 on Prima. My Wife loves to pick at the buffet. The Breakaway class all have the same Garden cafe and they are large offering a big selection. The Prima has The Sunrise Cafe buffet and it is 1/3rd the size of the Breakaway class garden buffet. So if the buffet is a big deal avoid Prima class ships. As Haven guests there is a private resturant serving 7 am to 9 pm, so buffets arent my priority. In Haven there is a Consigniers and they will make speciality reservations and guarenteed seating. No plastic trash liners because NCL is environmentally friendly . You should call your room steward if you have trash you feel may smell.
@@ThisHappyPlaceTravel Our finances allow us to cruise every other year as Haven Guests , so yes it is costly . We did 1 Spa Suite non Haven trip on the Breakaway and after being Haven guests we were a little let down. For me it is worth it. #1 If I want to be involved with the social party atmosphere of the main areas I can, If I want to retreat to the calmer areas of the Haven I can. #2 Consigniers desk. They make all your reservations, resturants, shore excursions, Spa, barbershop, beauty treatments , even private ships photography sessions at a moments notice usually #3 - 24 Hr Butler service 24 hr room service, 24 hour carry around phone to call the Butler for any needs anywhere on the ship. 4 - Private elevators - no waiting. 5 - Priority boarding and disembarking- no lines no wait 6 - Haven Resturant opens at 7 am last seating 9 pm - Breakfast , lunch , Dinner, bars, lounges , sitting areas, sun deck, hot tubs , pools, saunas , * ice rooms and steam rooms depending on the Ship. . 7 - Reserve guarenteed seating for every show. 8 - plush bathrobes, deck slippers, 1 day laundry service. 9 - Library , board games, and card games area - kind of a throwback to earlier ship travel. 10- Some Haven suites have their own hot tubs which the room steward drains and sanitized daily then refills upon request. * Not all of our Haven suites had private hot tubs - depends on suite booked. Some Haven suites have full bathtub some dont. 11- Free Two hour behind the scenes tour of our most recent Prima Haven, incuded a guided tour of : Galley of Los Lobos and meeting the Chef, Tour of Engenineering section, Tour of crew areas , crew lounges, dining areas, Tour of ships laundry, Tour of behind the stage and entertainers areas, Tour of ships food storage areas, freezers and butchers shops, Tour of ships waste disposal areas, this is how I knew that NCL was eliminating plastic products such as bags to be environmentally responsible, and that all unconsumed food products are ground up and pumped into the Sea - they call it " feeding the fish ". Tour of ships bridge where we met the Captain and he spent about 15 minutes answering questions face to face. Included two free photographs from ships photographer of behind the scenes areas of Wife & Myself. But the biggest thing in my case is that I dont have to stress over a pool side deck lounge chair. In the Haven if the sun deck lounge chairs and unbrellas are taken you just tell the cabana attendant and one is brought out for you. The pool and sun deck furniture is much more plush and larger. If you want a snack or lunch at your lounge chairs the cabans staff will order it from the Haven resturant and set it up pool sude or on the Sun deck. YES it is costly - Yes I think it is worth it to be treated like a King every other year. Word of warning - If you go Haven it is very hard to go back . Ask my Wife!!
Especially on the Joy we'd say if you want some shade during the day claim the chairs on the main pool deck early (9 am). If full sun is more your style you can probably wait a little longer and claim some chairs on one of the higher decks.
NCL Employee doesn’t give out Towels until 7am. I showed up 8am deck 16 EVERY Lounge chair was taken. So I had to come back 8:45 when the running track opens 9am to get a Chair on deck 17. I didn’t get a chair until 9:30 because it takes time for Employees to put chairs out on the track. This is a good Ship if you don’t like the ☀️. (:
While we sailed, it was awful and only worked about 50% of the time. We didn't try to stream, upload or download anything and I doubt it would have worked anyway. BUT we've heard that they added Starlink in the refurb a couple months ago so hopefully it's much better now.
The internet wasn't great at the time but it did what we needed (basic browsing and some low quality streaming). I heard that's one of the things that improved after the recent enhancements, though!
Honestly we looked a ton before we went and couldn't find one either. Still can't. Maybe you can be the first to share one with the cruising community!
We usually do! We like the all inclusive nature of it it's definitely the more expensive way to go compared to rejecting some of those add ons and paying for cruise fare only. Norwegian actually recently changed the name of that incentive to "More at Sea" because "Free At Sea" was a bit misleading.

Re the go-karts, we booked them on the tv screen in our room.

Perks? Free at sea isn't Free. Being solo, I get 2x points on RC in an interior, oceanview or balcony cabin. Easier and faster to get loyalty rewards.
Thanks for the Tips Guys. Put them to use last week. Staffing was definitely improved from your post.
That's great to hear! Hopefully they stick with it and continue to improve!

@@ThisHappyPlaceTravel thanks for letting me know. You guys are great!
How early is early to get loungers?
If you want one on embarkation day, head there as soon as you get on the ship. On sea days, I'd say before 9am.
On many cruise lines you can ask for a diaper genie and they will bring you one.
That's good to know! We'll have to try it on our next one. Thanks!
I have that poster in the background autographed by 20+ Disney characters!!!
That's very cool! What a great idea.
Or get the all at sea and have it included !
We usually do! We like the all inclusive nature of it it's definitely the more expensive way to go compared to rejecting some of those add ons and paying for cruise fare only. Norwegian actually recently changed the name of that incentive to "More at Sea" because "Free At Sea" was a bit misleading.
Can you book go carts on TV
Yes, you can!
@marybright9112
What is "go carts on TV" ??
tips for NCL alone.
Is there pool for babies?
There is a kids aqua park on deck 16, but generally the rule is that children using the area have to be out of diapers to use it. If you're looking for more of what the Norwegian Joy has to offer, check out our complete tour!
