Just one sentence? Well, I enjoyed the Bliss last year. I just wished I used the water rides and go carts more often!😅 I saw the bowling rink, but it cost 2$ I think, meh! I thought it was free! 🙄🤑

It's not a review, just a statement with no details or examples.

Curious what you mean with the extra charges. The daily tips/service charge? The specialty restaurants? Bingo cards? What were you surprised by?

We had such a different experience. We loved every minute. No extra charges as we had the free at sea offers. Sorry you didn’t enjoy it as much.

Please elaborate on these extra charges. I’ve sailed on NCL quite a bit and never once had an extra charge for something I was unaware of. Sure, they offer extra things for additional cost, none of which is required, just like every other non-premium cruise line.

I agree with CruzeFan. Please give some examples of all the extras that were so irritating to you.

What extra charges were you unaware of? It’s always important to read and understand what is and is NOT included in the basic cruise fare prior to booking.
