Review summary
Dinner not in specialty restaurants was poor: waiter called me "Daddy" and my wife "Mommy", another said to my wife " I hope he was better looking when he was younger.", 1/2 the time coffee was undrinkable (like mud), offered sour cream for baked potato after the main course was completed, steak knife offered to me backwards, and many other inexcusable mistakes. Did the waiters have any training? Specialty restaurants had decent food and better waiters.
Entertainment was also just OK with Dueling Pianos singers barely able to sing while Big Daddy blues group was good but repetitive.
Ship was plain, onboard shops were limited and uninspiring unlike the Royal Caribbean fleet or even the MSC Divina.
TV was awful. One sports channel consisted of soccer. Pro football is only shown in bars with soccer filling the rest of the time. No other sports. One movie and one tv show channel with a very small variety.
Dinner reservations for 3 couples just disappeared. A woman at the "Savor" reception desk entered them on a PC by hand from our customer copy. We had to eat an hour late. One of many examples of a disorganized operation.
Last time on Norwegian cruise lines...
