Book everything in advance including up scale dining. Try to get Vibe passed if you don't have kids traveling with you. They sell out right away and you cannot book them in advance. We got on the ship at 12:00 and they were already sold out.

Eat in the specialty restaurants! If you go to the spa, be prepared to be sold every product under the sun.

Use "Super Shuttle" to and from the airport in Miami. Great service and less expensive then any other. You can book ahead but you don't have to. You can get them right at the airport and they were waiting when we docked so no need to book ahead.

Try the Ocean Blue. And the Million Dollar Quartet was great. One tip... taking an excursion in Miami gets you off the ship fast and easy. It nice to see Miami also.

If you are only going to go to 1 specialty restaurant go to Tappanyaki - was delicious and fun!

If you are cruising on Norwegian you should get the meal package because the food is not very good at all

Check out the show "Burn the Floor." This show is not to be missed.

If you can try the Vibe beach club really great on sea days also take your time getting off because it's going to take some time.

• Make your specialty restaurant and show reservation ASAP • iConcierge is very handy, download the app at home, not on the ship • If you dislike noise, do not pick forward cabins on deck 8 which is right above main showroom • Do not bother to purchase internet minutes; it is so slow that you cann

We did not know that there was a Russian folk group scheduled on the ship on the night we paid to go out to one in St. Petersburg. They were similar, we later found out, but we got to see the city at night.... Consider that when deciding if you want to book the add-on.

Don't go on it. The Gem was delightful. Skip this ship if possible. They treat you like cattle.

Since this is a mega ship I recommend booking entertainment asap. Also booking the excursions of your choice as early as possible.

Get ready for a loud , noisy, crowded family cruise full of children. Great trip for those taking children on a cruise.

Conch Fritters at Margaritaville are amazing. Flourless chocolate cake at La Cucina will knock your socks off. Food everywhere was excellent, not one complaint. Definitely see the duelling pianos as they're hilarious as well as talented. Take advantage of the Waterfront Bars :)

Taste and Savor very nice but beware of dress code between lunch and dinner.

The salt is terrible and looks like rock salt. It does not grind well if at all, so bring your own.

Don't do it!

Don't spend time in your cabin, get out an meet people. Many were from other countries and speak enough English so don't be afraid to talk to them.

The Taste and Savor restaurants are very nice and have very good food. A nice alternative for dining is the Teppanyaki with nice food and quit entertaining by the chefs. This restaurant has a fixed nominal prise which is worth the extra cost.
