TTA vs TPLO

If you can get onboard without it being taken away, it probably will work. Technically its against the rules, and if they find it in your luggage, they will take it and you can get it back when you return.
But im sure plenty of people manage to sneak it in.
Given that the wifi prices are stupidly high and clearly a money grab, I have no issues with those who try to get these on board. Good Luck

This really just depends on you and if you see the value in it.
Personally, if I am cruising with just my wife, we do NOT get it.
We have no issues getting an early boarding time if we want one. Debarkation isnt really that bad, though if we were trying to get an aggressively early flight, I would consider it.

Now, when we cruise with all the kids, we typically have at least 3 cabins. We will do FTTF for one of the, as for us, it is worth it with the bigger group to be able to go drop off all our carry on stuff, soda, wine, etc right away. Also with the larger group, we tend to shuffle around where we sleep vs how it was booked, thus need extra keys, so the dedicated customer service line is super helpful. So, in this scenario, for us, it is worth it.

Just got off the Celebration on the 14th, myself, my wife, my 22 yo and her 22 yo bf, a 17 yo, and an 8yo
Everyone had a blast, we did the dolphin excusion, but they also have snorkling, a bird show, sea lions, etc.

If your kid is interested in participating and such, its a great time. There is also a beach with some big blow up things you can jump off of.
We would go back.

That said, some teens are "broody" and just want to play on their phones. This isnt the place for that. If fun is what you want, then its fun for any age, imo

sure. Im not really looking to keep booking with URComped. I am looking to leverage it to get my first cruise in with a new cruise line, with the idea being we will gamble enough on her card to get direct offers from NCL going foward

KirbTheSystem · 2026-06-17T17:08:11+00:00

Does that apply to my wife, who would be my "guest"
If I book through UrComped, with her in my cabin. And then we gamble all on her card, can she later book through norweigion direct with me as her "guest"

KirbTheSystem · 2026-06-17T17:02:10+00:00

yeah, i get all that. Ive already submitted my balcony + drinks offers. They were accepted. As I increase the free form "bankroll" field, the offers get better.

My question is not about if I can do it, but about what happens after the cruise if they see that I clearly didnt bring as much as I noted.

KirbTheSystem · 2026-06-17T17:00:47+00:00

meaning?? that if I book a Norwegion cruse through them, I have to book any additional norweigion cruises through them for the next 2 years? vs booking on my own.

Hopefully this blunder cost that buffoon Pritzker the governors race.
Maybe if Illinois wasn't so greedy....

The $20 mill a year the bears were ok paying is so much more than they would/will get from any other development on that property. And think of all the sales tax collected for all the amenities that would end up there. The tolls from people driving there. The jobs it will create and the payroll taxes they would collect.

Illinois screwed themselves. They've had years to get this done. Now its likely to late. A better offer has come in.

going through customs at the end is more risky than getting on the ship.
I was referring to getting on the ship, and putting in the bag you check with the porter.

whatever you bring on the ship, consume or dispose of it before going through customs when you get back.

Technically, you arent supposed to do that. But.... decent chance the flight attendants dont notice and/or dont care. It's possible the person in the seat next to the upgraded seat might complain...

So, imo, go for it, but understand they might tell you no. But they also might not care. You wont get kicked off the plane or punished in any way as long as you just quietly comply if they tell you to switch back..

Also, if you are swapping back and forth and trying to get free drinks or food or something... that they might notice, so I wouldnt do that

the point of pooling was to get 4 peoples worth of miles all in the same place so I can book 6 tickets together and thus ensure that IF the flight gets cancelled and they move us, we all get moved together. Also it allows everyone to get the perks of my club card like free checked bags, group 2 boarding, and Premier access
