Review summary
The Disembarkation score is giving me pause. We were late returning to Miami due to a crew member overboard, and we circled back to search for them. At the time, we presumed he had not survived, which was very sad. The reason I am giving a low score on on the disembarkation is due to the fact that NCL knew we would arrive in Miami late, yet they were not prepared to handle the chaos that would ensue as people ignored instructions on lining up, and they continued to allow people to use the stairs and elevators down to deck 7. Deck 7 became total chaos with ZERO "law". People were shouting at each other, being aggressive, and this delayed the exit even more. We saw only a few NCL workers, and NO OFFICERS. Again, this was all due to the fact we were late and normally people are sleeping when the ship arrives in Miami. While the circumstance was sad, NCL still knew and had time to plan for what to do. They didn't. Pure chaos. It took us 2.5 hours to exit deck 7 after we were asked to go there. I won't let that sour the trip ... overall it was amazing and we WILL do it again.Embarkation
