Review summary
I usually cruise with Princess, P&O, Celebrity, RCI, and only went with NCL as they have single studios. There is a studio lounge which has a bar in the evening and serves as a great meeting place to make dinner plans with like-minded solo travellers. I was dubious, to be fair, thinking all these " billy no mates" would be oddballs! But as was recently widowed, I cant always rely on friends or relatives to be free to travel as frequently as I am able -so NCL.
I was pleasantly surprised as I met some lovely people, experienced great entertainment, and partied hard!

Ship tip
It is not for cruisers who like the formality and dressing as on other cruise lines. The restaurant food is excellent -but beware the cirque dinner show! Costly substandard food, and if you are small (like me) you struggle to see past the large Americans!
