What is it NCL charges extra for? I’ve cruised them a bunch and can’t figure out this complaint. They offer the free at sea package, and I leave the ship without paying a dime onboard. Every other major line also charges for internet, alcohol, speciality dining, etc, so I honestly don’t understand the issue.
