Review summary

Favorites: excellent food, our assigned waiter-Bonifacious (spelling?) who

went by "Boni" was the best waiter we've had on any cruise we've been on...

we miss him dearly. Liked the ports, except for Harvest Cay NWC island..would 

rather have been at Belize City. It was like getting off the ship, and then going to the ship on land. Didn't experience the Belize "culture".

 

Dislikes: Language barrier with room stewards. Luggage handling on 

embarkation..The paper tags are vulnerable to be torn off during handling'

which happened to my wife..took forever for her to convince NWC it was hers

although cabin steward - and my wife and I had trouble communicating, she was wonderful. We over tipped her accordingly. Room was excellent, we were gratefully upgraded from inside to a port hole.

Ship tip

The ship was fine, the food and food service excellent, entertainment lacking, outside deck areas clean and abundant, but what's up with the pricey alcohol beverages and then serving them in "trailer trash" small dixie cups?

Ports of call

New Orleans, Louisiana

I used clear luggage tags and folded them to size to fit they sell cruise luggage tag holders

I just lamenated my luggage tags today because I am afraid they would get ripped off too. I was surprised that's what they use.
