Review summary

over all cruise was good. not going to the DR made the trip home too long. this was the second cruise in a row that they didnt go to the DR, not buying the reason for not going was weather. booking through was great and loved the extra perks. Just wish we would have known what they were up front.

Appreciate your feedback. We saw a show about “big ship”. One of the ports included was the DR. Because of that particular channel, if the wind is too strong or blowing against the current, the local pilot won’t let the ship dock. I guess that could be considered weather.

My husband and I were in all those places that you've gone to plus the Dominican Republic three times with the Norwegian Cruise Line. Glad you had a great time. I am going on the getaway this weekend
