Review summary

As I said this was the worst cruise we have been on . We let saying we will not go on a norwegian cruise again. We have cruised on 4 other lines and nothing g like this one, we cruise dec17-24 and even though school was out, it was good. I will not cruise on a line that overbooks and makes passages not enjoy their cruise. Along with no dress code enforcement in resturant, I don't want to see butts walk into the restaurant while iam eating.

Service and Staff

There was a great wait person in one resturant, one great bartender and our cabin steward was the best... I could not get a skinny margarita made right, only if I went to one bar.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
The ship appears older, it's design is not stylish, it is clean, but not a Beautiful ship. Resturants are clean, bathroom clean areas wear clean. It was a very clean ship. . updating.

Cabin / Stateroom

2 out of 5
Small cabin and sofa needs updating, deck is small also, doesn't work for a 6'5 man, he was very uncomfortable just trying to sit. Legs hit wall.. we had to squeeze our way around and we are not big people.

Ship tip

Don't sail in march ( anytime) ship is over crowded, they put 4888 people on a shop that should hold 4000. So you can't enjoy your cruise, pools/ hot tubs / restaurants/ entertainment always full.. Any other time if year, I don't think would even be better. They don't seem to care about us, just money.. you pay for all the little things ( bowling 8,00/ other games 1.66. You can let the front know your probles, but they show no concern..

Ports of call

New Orleans, Louisiana

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Except for the fact that you have to leave your room by 8am for a 9:45 disembarking. I feel it went very smoothly..
