The airlines have lowered their flight price, only to decouple fees for baggage, seat selection, entertainment, and food. The rule in the hospitality industry these days seems to be a decoupling pricing strategy. So my expectation going into our cruise was that it was going to be a fairly all-inclusive experience while on board. With those changes and upgrades, have come quite a few hidden (or at least unexpected for those that didn’t read the small print) costs.įor our Alaska cruise on the Norwegian Bliss, we selected the specialty dining package and the unlimited beverage package for two as our included “add-ons” to our package. The ships have gotten much larger and many offer so much more in terms of dining and on-board activities over the years. While we chose our Alaska cruise carrier because of the Norwegian Bliss cost, which was quite affordable for a family of three, we quickly discovered that some aspects of cruising have changed in recent decades. Back then, I remember ordering room service at will, grazing at midnight buffets, and indulging in whatever entertainment was offered on board. ![]() At least that is the way it used to be. Prior to sailing on the Norwegian Bliss cruise ship from Seattle to Alaska, it had been 20 years since my last cruise. We tend to think of cruise ships as all-inclusive resorts on the water.
