Review summary

The ship was awesome, entertainment was great, food was typical buffet style but decent, resturant food was above average and with nice relaxed setting. The only thing I would have enjoyed is broadcasting the Daytona 500 at least someplace on the ship, instead of all week long soccer ! Granted, it wasn't a deal breaker but certainly would have been nice ! I'm not a big sports fan but do enjoy watching motorsports. I wonder if they broadcast the super bowl for the football fans ? Overall we had a great vacation on the ship. Staff was friendly and ship was spotless !

I was on over Xmas and many NFL games were shown. So fun to watch football on a cruise.

Hopefully we can get a decent seat at that time....according to most we won't...need to be up there at 430 am to achieve this.

we literally lived in the pool area all day from after breakfast till dinnertime unless we were in port. and even after returning from an island, we came to the pool for the sail away parties. ..

And they don't play fun things like music videos and other things other than soccer....so odd in my opinion.

Doesn't appear NCL is in tune with Major American sporting events. Had a big issue last year on the Epic seeing the First True National Championship game in college football.

Yeah, I didn't get the constant soccer. I'm not a fan but I guess there's alot more than I thought.
