Review summary

Our first cruise on Norwegian. If not for the entertainment, I'm not sure we would consider it again. Only the entertainment and performers were stand-outs over other cruise lines.

I always thought the inside cabins are about as big as RCL and Princess but i sail by myself lol. I usually travel off peak season, repositionings and holidays and not experieced over crowded. i have been on full ships and after day 1 everyone spreads out and it kinda evens out everywhere.
