Review summary

Held overnight in NYC due to Nicole, then diverted to Port Canavaral and Nassau instead.  Neither port stay - half a day each - long enough to do much.  No excursions even offered in Nassau.  Better a full day in Nassau and in San Juan, say.  Enjoyed the ship very much, with only one bad meal in Cagney's, of all places; slow and cold.  Shows good, music good, comedy club fun.  Service on the whole was very good.  Seas a bit rough though.

NCL fumbled wheelchair assistance on both embarkation and disembarkation.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Nice sized patio, adequate sitting area, comfortable bed, adequate storage, and comfortable bathroom. Good steward, too. The cabin door was too narrow for my walker, so I had to fold it up to get in or out, an annoying hassle. Sufficient mirrors and lighting. Didn't like the sofa much, could be more comfortable.

Ship tip

To travel forward-to-aft or vice-verca go through on Deck 6, to avoid the crowds, smoke and clutter on Deck 7, the casino, upper atrium bars and O'Sheehan's. Note: Theatre is forward; dining, aft.
