Review summary

First time cruising with NCL, loved the ship and all that it had to offer. Price more expensive than other cruise lines with same amenities but overall good food & a good experience. I booked this cruise over a year in advance and price never dropped, other cruise line used previously have also booked over a year in advance with price decrease/adjustments for same cabin type etc. overall an enjoyable first experience with NCL. Thanks
