NCL bar menus are generally standard fleet-wide, but be sure to double check that your ship has a particular bar onboard. Prices are up-to-date for 2025 as of posting, but may rise at any time and do not include the automatic 20% gratuity. And remember, please drink responsibly!

Class Dismissed!
I always buy travel insurance to cover my cruises, but I never purchase it through NCL. It costs more and usually covers far less than policies you purchase on your own. I go through sites like travelinsurance.com* to compare plans and prices and get the best deal for the coverage I want. It’s a simple process – enter your travel dates, total travel costs (including air, hotel, and cruise fare) and answer a few basic questions about yourself. Then see a list of quotes for plans with reviews. Spend less on insurance and spend more on excursions, special onboard cruise experiences and…future cruises!
And don’t forget to pack your “Warning I Bought The Drink Package” t-shirt, cabin door magnet, and popgrip.
