Frequently asked questions

Can I join the parties and book direct or with my own travel agent?

Unfortunately, No. To be included in our pre cruise events, exclusive onboard events, shore excursions & other activities will require you make your reservation with CruisingBears.com and MJ & Team Dream Vacations.

These events are organized with the cruiseline and other vendors and an accurate count of attendees is determined by the reservations inside of the group.

I have already booked. Can I transfer my reservation to the group?

In some situations, Yes! If you haven't paid in full and your reservation was made less than 30 days ago, we are able to transfer your reservation into our group. Contact us for details on the process. Email: MJOBE@DreamVacations.com or Call us at 865-235-8118

Do I need a passport?

Yes, if the cruise starts or ends in a NON-USA city.

Yes, if you were not born in the United States of America.

No, if both, (1) The cruise begins AND ends in the same US port AND (2) You were born in the United States. Then you are allowed to travel with either:

A Valid Passport

OR

Proof of Citizenship (see below) AND Government-issued photo ID

  • State certified U.S. birth certificate

  • (Baptismal paper, hospital certificates of birth, and Puerto Rico birth certificates issued prior to 7/1/10 are not acceptable.)

  • Original certificate of U.S. naturalization

  • Original certificate of U.S. citizenship

  • U.S. Consular report of your birth abroad

  • Enhanced Driver’s License (enhanced driver’s licenses are only issued in Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Vermont and Washington)

  • A valid passport card

Photocopies or pictures of documents will not be accepted.

*A U.S. citizen under the age of 16 does not require a government-issued photo ID.

A valid passport is required on all sailings that begin in one US port and end in another US port.

Norwegian Cruise Line strongly recommends all guests to obtain a passport for their cruise vacation for the following reasons:

  • If you miss the ship at its scheduled U.S. departure port and need to travel outside the U.S. to meet the ship, a passport would be required to travel internationally by air.

  • If you unexpectedly need to depart the ship from a foreign port prior to the end of sailing, a passport would be required to travel internationally by air.

  • International ports of call can change their travel requirements at their own discretion and may unexpectedly require all guests to have a valid passport to go ashore.

Is this cruise right for me?

Embarking on a cruise adventure might seem daunting, especially for individuals in our community, who might have concerns related to various factors such as size, solo travel, or feeling at ease in a diverse environment. We understand these concerns, and we want to assure you that cruises are an enjoyable and hassle-free way to travel.

Cruises are designed to cater to a wide range of interests and preferences. Whether you relish unwinding by the pool, exploring new destinations, cavorting exquisite cuisine or participating in onboard activities, there is a cruise experience tailored just for you.

Moreover, with our group, you won't just be a passenger; you'll be among friends. Our group values the camaraderie of the community, the activities we organize, the ample opportunities for socializing, and the friendly atmosphere that define our cruises.

Is this an all gay cruise?

This Norwegian Cruise Line itinerary is open to the public and is not exclusively for the LGBT+ community. However, we anticipate that our group will be the largest onboard, and our group is solely focused on members of the Chub/Chaser and Bear communities.

We do not charter the full ship. We do however have exclusive parties that only those who have booked into our group will have access to, giving you a private space to just be you! We create a fun and friendly environment onboard our sailings with lots of activities for you to meet new people and make new friends.

When you join our group, you will feel at home among friends and receive the same outstanding service and hospitality of Norwegian Cruise Lines.

Can I cruise by myself?

Absolutely! Cruising is ideal for people traveling solo, because it's so easy to meet other people. In fact, most ships have parties just for singles early on, so you can start to be involved right away. There are two ways to travel as a solo:

  1. Some ships also have single cabins (request pricing as we cannot hold this space with a constant price). The price you pay is based on the market price at the time of booking with the cruise line.

  2. Single Supplement for double staterooms. Yes, you'll pay for two people but you get double the space! Taxes for the second person are waived and the price is stable, based on our advertised group rate.

What if I need to cancel?

If one or more persons cancel, the rate(s) for remaining occupants may increase. Should your booking be canceled after initial payment, cancellation fees may apply. In addition, you are subject to cruise line cancellation fees. All taxes and government fees contained herein are subject to change at any time. The cruise line may cancel your cruise should final payment not be received by due date. You may protect yourself against unforeseen circumstances for covered reasons when you purchase our Travel Protection. Cancellation policy may vary by category. Register online and inquire for full details.

NCL offers 2 deposit options. A refundable option and a non-refundable option.

The refundable deposit is $250 per cabin.

The non-refundable deposit is $150 per cabin and NCL will apply $300 towards the cost of your cruise.

Additional funds applied to the booking in excess of the deposit are fully refundable until the Final Payment date. After the final payment date, the schedule depends on your room type and the following schedule.
