Review summary

Disappointed that we skipped Skagway two years in a row. No compensation offered. Should have given everyone free wifi for the day since we had to endure another sea day.

Did you know ahead of time? We are sailing next week and I asked if they were still porting in Skagway and they said yes.

We were in the same cruise. I found out other cruise ships were able to dock or tender their passengers to Skagway. I will never cruise with NCL again.

Missing Skagway was not Norwegians fault… there was a rock slide that knocked out the dock. No large ships on any cruise line can dock there currently. Read your cruise contract they don’t owe you anything for a missed port lol

2nd NCL cruise but different experience

Great time despite the Skagway cancellation.
