Review summary

I canceled a future cruise I had booked with NCL. I will not cruise with NCL again

Embarkation

3 out of 5
The experience can be improved by allowing the passengers to board after the registration process instead of herding every one into another room. Then waiting again for the group you were assigned to be called.
