Avoid the buffet crowds and keep heading toward the Aft of the ship for their al fresco buffet which has a full service bar too.

Don’t book an obstructed ocean view because of the annoying noise from the hydraulics in the lifeboat

Make reservations early for speciality restaurants.

Not very kid friendly anymore.

If you like to have a midnight snack in your room, make sure you get your treats at the Garden Cafe before they close at 9:30!
Poncholaurie
Enjoy the complementary dining options. And get to know the staff they are super passionate and friendly.

Bring American socket adapters if you're not American! Enjoy the laid back vibe. Definitely catch the production cast shows. Maybe watch a movie in the atrium with added free popcorn! Don't be afraid to mix up your dining of an evening & breakfast in the dining room for added relaxation to start the day.

Do NOT count on any wi fi even if you pay for it. Seems if airplanes can do wi fi 37,000 feet above sea level, NCL should be able to get decent wi fi. It was not just this cruise but the last two I took with NCL!!!!

They don’t stop in Venice! And they don’t tell you that until you board, even though they knew weeks ago! We would have planned a couple of days in Venice before our trip if we knew that!!

Book specialty restaurants a month or so before boarding for days where you will be cruising during dinner time.

The Great Outdoors open air cafe space is the best! Enjoyed meals and relaxing overlooking the ocean or beautiful ports.

Dont and if you do do not upgrade your cabin to include 24 hour Concierge and Butler service, the only thing they did was send us snacks every evening with their compliments. I just wish they had done their jobs!

I would recommend trying another ship in the fleet

Research ahead of time so you have a plan for dining & excursions. Don’t expect perfection. We had minor inconveniences such as our sink didn’t drain right and our toilet wouldn’t flush for 1/2 a day. We also found the entertainment disappointing, but that would likely change on every trip.

The outside restaurant at the very back of the ship was our favorite place.

Ask for coffee maker and/or ice daily from your cabin steward if you want those items. They are not automatic on standard balcony cabins.
