Review summary

got on the getaway ready to cruise, feeling great! 3 days in got so sick, went to the ship doctor gave me Imodium and told me to stay in cabin for 24 hours. What!! Had payed for a show (illusionrium) tried to get a refund was told no twice. So j payed for it so I went, 2 officers holding a picture of me up , took me out like I was a criminal. I was humiliated. Remaining 3 days of cruise had to eat saltines and no alcohol. Some cruise. I'll have to think twice before cruising with NCL!!

So you would rather infect 6,000 people than potentially lose $20? Do you know how fast sicknesses can spread on a ship? I not only would've escorted you out, I would've had you arrested at the next port for endangering all those people. Selfish much?

Sorry you got sick, but why bother to go see the Dr. if you're not going to follow his instructions? With 4000 passengers, he wanted to avoid spreading your illness (possibly Norovirus). How would YOU have felt if you caught something from another passenger who refused to stay in their cabin when they were sick? Situation could have been handled with more sensitivity.

NCL not only cruise line to do that. My mom had the same thing happen to her on RCL.
