It was our longest cruise, 12 nights, there was plenty of variety of things to do and see onboard for that length of cruise.

Be patient, it’s a large ship with a lot of passengers, everybody can’t be first. Be kind to the staff, they work very hard with no days off during the entire cruise. Lastly, this is not a tip, it’s just something I do…as one can do as one please…to show my appreciation to my Stateroom Steward, I purchase random items that I think one might enjoy and put them in a gift bag along with a thank you card with a monetary gift inside. The gift bag is a token of my appreciation. It’s always well received. This time I did candy and Bluetooth sunglasses

Book your specialty restaurant as soon as you get on the ship.

Find the bars on deck 8 outdoors, as they are not busy and very cool to visit.

Do sail

A lot of the good games shows are in the Atrium, this is a horrible location due the bar noise, Guest Services lines, and Shore Excursion desks all nearby. They bring in folding chairs, which is an indicator they know the location is not right. A lot of standing room only, hard to hear due to the noise from the bar, and the small space made it difficult to really enjoy.

Book excursions and dining reservations for the MDRs prior to even going on the cruise for the best experience.

Learn as much as you can about the ship, ports and the your specific sailing before the cruise.

If you a solo sailer go to all the events to mingle, you'll meet lots of people and perhaps that special someone.

A large ship. Not for everyone, but in great shape

Deck 13 was confusing trying to find my cabin in the aft

Don't expect the food to be anything outstanding, the buffets I would give a B-, the specialty restaurants I would give an AA

Get to events in the smaller venues early for best experience.

Even though NCL boasts “Feel Free To Follow The Sun Instead Of A Schedule” don’t believe it. You will have a much better experience on the ship if you plan and prebook. If you want to make sure that you get good seating times for specialty dining and access to all shows, book your times and dates well ahead of time and make reservations online at ncl.com.
