Review summary

This was a long awaited return to cruising for us. We used a promotion that offered air and optional days before and after the cruise. My advice is book your own rooms and airfare. Ncl uses the cheapest flights with several stops and layovers. Air travel is a nightmare on its own right now, adding the extra security measures at each stop is just to much.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
The covid protocol was a little tedious and a little unorganized but effective.

Ship experiences

Entertainment

Service and Staff

Upgrades to the ship were well thought out and effective.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
This is a 2 bedroom suite in Haven. Great location, comfort and service.

Ship tip

Upgrade to the Haven suites. Secondly, be prepared for non stop activity. To leave the ship, you must take excursion and the excursions keep you out all day.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Fast, smooth and no problems.
