Due to many cancellation, Norwegian offered deeply discounted prices to the locals in the embarkation port. The added way too many children and non-English speakers which made this cruise a bit uncomfortable. We cruise this time of year not to have too many kids and the ones on ship were out of control.

Ship tip
I would not choose Dawn again. Too many better ships.
We heard about a really horrible cruise from San Juan that departed Nov. 12th. Heard it was FEMA, 473 kids, hazmat had to clean the pool because of poop diapers.
Wow...too many kids and non-English speakers??? Should there be a cap on the amount of children and non English speakers on a ship??
How much of a discount did the locals get?? I'm happy there were locals because they have been through a lot the past few months due to the hurricane. They deserve a vacation too!
