Cruise was fun family time and enjoyed it very much.
Embarkation
4 out of 5
Wasn’t Horrible. About an Hour from handing off luggage to Porter to Physically being on ship.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Food was excellent everywhere we went. Three Specialty and Manhattan Room three nights. All were absolutely delicious.
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
Pool deck was crazy full and pools are small. Gym was never crowded and machines always open
Entertainment
4 out of 5
Got into every show and activity we wanted. Footloose, Beatles, Magic and Comedy Shows even though one Footloose night was cancelled.
Footloose was Soso.
Beatles show was really good.
Magic show was really good.
Comedians were very funny.
I would skip Footloose next time as seeing it once was enough.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Service and Staff were amazing. Housekeeping always there.
Wait staff amazing.
Smaller less crowded bars had better Bartenders. Felt like the main bars (pool deck, Casino, Atrium) bartenders were overwhelmed and knew they were already getting lots of tips.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Ship was always clean. Ship is huge. Literally did about 6-7 miles a day. Mostly looking for family. Didn’t realize until day 5 that the NCL App let’s you text each other. I didn’t have my phone anyway. Locked in in safe when I got on board and left it until disembarking.
Elevators were usually always crowded but not that big of a deal.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Tight but expectable. Great balcony. Bathroom accommodating. Wish had more drawers. But overall, got what we paid for.
Ship tip
It’s what you make of it. Relax. It’s vacation. If being with 4000 people isn’t your thing. This isn’t the cruise for you. Although I really only felt this many people on the first day.
4000 people leaving anywhere is crowded. If your around people expect delays. Just is what it is. Wasn’t horrible. Eat breakfast before disembarking. And then deal with the line to get off the ship. No other way to do it.
