6 Night Pacific Coastal (Los Angeles To Vancouver)

Sail date: April 28, 2019

Ship: Norwegian Bliss

Reviewed: 5 years ago

Review summary

Just got back a couple of days ago from a 6 day Pacific Coastal from LA to Vancouver. Everything went pretty smoothly. The ship was very clean and the staff friendly. I would agree with most other reviewers about the elevators being very slow. I just used the stairs as much as possible. I loved the studio cabin and use of the studio lounge. I got a lot of use out of the coffee machine; I didn't have to go to Starbucks for a cappuccino/latte. Q's beef brisket was awesome. I mostly used the main dining rooms other than the times I ate at the specialty restaurants as I had a dining package included in my cruise. I will say the app was finicky at times but I always had my Freestyle Daily with me so it wasn't a big deal. The thermal suite pass was totally worth it. Try the snow room if you get the chance. I only had one ship excursion in Victoria. I planned my own things to do in San Francisco and Vancouver. Jersey Boy's was awesome! Havana, not so much. I heard later that I had seen a shortened version the night I attended so the story didn't make sense. As this was sort of an experiment for me (I had never been on the large Norwegian ships), overall I kind of prefer the smaller ship size as there are less crowds and the atmosphere is cozier.
