$250 for $500 is their repeating occasional promo on these ($150 for $300 is standard/always available)
removing the advanced purchase requirement and decreasing the sailing length is unusual.

heads up these are only valid on new bookings.

Pro tip: Stack it with the NCL $750 off cruises from the MyVegas apps and you're basically cruising for free. 🙌💸

There are several "MyVegas" apps. One is about Las Vegas, the others are slot machines. Which one? How do you get to the offer?

I probably haven't sailed NCL in a decade, but reading of booking windows and minimum sailing periods along with certificate nonsense makes the whole company sound sleazy and the process of booking unnecessarily complicated. I don't recall the NCL cruise line having so much red tape with regards to booking when I cruised with them between 2000 and 2015.

They're not only Las Vegas. I actively play six of the MyVegas apps, but there are even more in the ecosystem:
- Facebook MyVegas game
- MyVegas Slots
- MGM Slots
- MyKonami
- MyVegas Blackjack
- MyVegas Bingo
* Pop! Slots is a great one too! My log in stopped working years ago and the developers are finally looking into it, but my husband's and son's works fine. 🤷 ♀️

Right now, there are three limited-time NCL cruise offers on MyVegas:
- 250k coins = $350 off
- 500k coins = $750 off
- 1M coins = Complimentary NCL cruise (San Diego to Mexico)

All the games are free to play, but collecting enough coins for the best rewards requires a solid time investment. Think of it as slow-burn strategy, not instant gratification.

Alternatively, you can always pay full price. 🤷

Hard pass...there are other cruise lines with less pricing games and better quality food than Norwegian. To each their own on staying on top on such things to score deals on cruises. I'm sure I'd be more intrigued if I were a bigger NCL fan and cruised more often. I was just commenting on there not being such hoops to jump through when it came to pricing on cruises back in the day to get a decently priced cruise...times change.

I used to cruise almost every year between 15 and 5 years ago, then slowed down a bit. I've sailed with a mix of cruise lines to all kinds of destinations—mostly out of Galveston, but also LA to Cabo, one out of Puerto Rico to the Virgin Islands, and one to Alaska.

Back then, the only people I knew getting comped cruises were serious gamblers. I had no idea there were other ways to cruise for next to nothing.

NCL isn't top-tier, but for the price, the quality holds up. Honestly, I wish I'd jumped on the nearly free MyVegas cruises sooner—especially when you stack them with CruiseFirst and CruiseNext vouchers. They make 7-night vacations absurdly affordable. I could easily do one every month (or more).

We travel internationally pretty often, but I hadn't seriously considered international cruising until now. Just hoping NCL doesn't gut the MyVegas offers too much—they seem to change constantly. 🤞

Can you offset the taxes and port fees with the MyVegas reward+ the discounted NCL vouchers?

If yes, I'd buy the NCL vouchers with a new credit card offering min 20% SUB.

I can't find anything saying they're waving the 120 day advanced booking requirement.

"solid" time? how much time is this, exactly?

Someone posted a screenshot on a Facebook forum but literally no one else can find it, but we found if you do a mock purchase - the 120-days language is not included in the terms and conditions.
