Get the drink package; whether it be just the soda one or the full drink package. One soda cost almost $5 but the daily soda package cost $6. The alcohol averaged about 10-13$ per drink for basic drinks.

Just pretend that that you’re anyone special, so what!

Don't expect a big selection at the pool for good things to eat or good music unless you like constant latin music. Glad we got off all 3 times at ports.

Don't do it!! This was our first cruise with NCL and expected much better. Save your money and cruise with Royal Caribbean or Carnival!

Expect an average cruise and nothing exciting. Layout was okay but you can only go end to end on one side of the ship so hallways are crowded. Food was nothing special and buffet always had weird dishes that nobody touched.

On the last day enjoy sit down breakfast and stay on the ship as late as you can. Let the everyone else rush to get off

Bring straws.they don't have them on the ship snd you need them for most drinks.

For breakfast, we found an area on deck 12 called the Great Outdoors. It was a smaller buffet that the others, but it had a nice variety of food and was not nearly as crowded as the other breakfast buffets. The eating area was outdoors, but well covered. You could always go back inside and find tables if needed.

The free Internet package we got worked well the first two days then it became pretty bad to being nonexistent we could not connect to check emails as it won’t connect in the remaining days of our cruise. Best to purchase an Internet package in addition to the free WiFi if you need to go online.

If getting a beverage package, buy BEFORE getting on boat.

This wasn't the Gem, it was the Breakaway. Sign up for comedy shows first thing when you wake up.

If you drink coffee, bring a large travel mug.

If your prone to getting seasick pick a cabin on a lower deck like deck 5 in the middle of the ship. Do not overpack like I do. Half the clothes I bring I do not wear. Get back to the ship on time or they will leave you and take your passport and credit cards with you so you will be able to get home by air

If you get sea sick they have complimentary medicine at the front desk on deck 7. I didn't find out till after I spent $10.00 in the gift shop purchasing it.
