Review summary

We got sick with flu like symptoms on the last 2 days of the cruise. We had to seek medical attention for that when we got home. The disembarkation was frustrating and the process was ridiculous. Not what we were expecting from Priority Access. We had a great experience that was totally ruined by this process. We have to rethink Norwegian for the future.

Disembarkation

1 out of 5
we were told to be in the theater at 7;15. we were then told we had to sit til 8;15. adjacent bathrooms were closed and locked. how much effort would it take to leave one open for departing passengers? this is the time that people need to use them. made the wait horrible.
