NCL's New MORE AT SEA: Everything You NEED to Know

Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator explains the transition from Norwegian Cruise Line's Free at Sea promotion to the new More at Sea program, which takes effect in January 2025. The video details the specific components of the add-on promotion, including an enhanced unlimited beverage package with premium brands, an expanded specialty dining experience, shore excursion credits, and a Wi-Fi package powered by Starlink. The creator notes that while the beverage package no longer has a $15 per drink cap, the service fees for both dining and beverages have increased compared to the previous program. The video provides a cost breakdown based on cruise length, noting that the daily rate for beverages decreases on longer sailings. The creator also addresses the sunsetting of the Free at Sea+ package, stating that NCL will refund passengers for those specific bookings. Ultimately, the creator weighs the pros, such as the simplicity of the program and the value for drinkers, against the cons, including the lack of Starbucks or sparkling water in the beverage package and the limited Wi-Fi minutes. The creator concludes that despite the price increases, the program remains a significant value for many travelers.

Creator's Key Takeaways
I took my very first NCL Cruise and a big part of the reason that I gave it a try was because of free at se
the new and old packages are very similar but there are some key differences
I do think it really still is a really good value for anybody who drinks alcohol or enjoys the specialty dining restaurants
the Wi-Fi on NCL ships is powered by starlink so that should in theory make the internet faster and better
