Was an OK cruise until NCL PEARL ship reported me and others to CUSTOMS for making purchases at the ship's store.

Ship tip

DO NOT, and I mean DO NOT purchase anything jewelry. The ship will report your purchase to CUSTOMS and you will be put on a list. Prior to disembarkation, you will need to present yourself to CUSTOMS to discuss the purchase you made on the ship in international waters. I was FURIOUS!!! I will never again make a purchase aboard ship. Prior to this episode, I have NEVER had a ship, any ship, turn over a list of names of passengers to CUSTOMS of purchases made in international waters. This process made me late for a disembarkation excursion and changed my whole view of the cruise. Sadly, I purchased CRUISE NEXT CREDITS during the cruise that I would gladly return after this experience.
