Loved doing a Transatlantic cruise. Enjoyed peaceful days at sea. Prima, while a beautiful ship is not meant for cold weather cruising. Too many people crammed inside in many little venues. Specialty Restaurants were outstanding.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Quality of food was excellent, especially the specialty restaurants.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
Too cold to use any of the outdoor facilities. Would have been nice to have speakers, especially a speaker about Iceland.
Entertainment
3 out of 5
Donna Summer show was great. Heidi Carlson did two good shows. If you were lucky to get into Syd Normans for the Fleetwood Mac Rumors show, you were rewarded. Not many made it. The rest of the entertainment was not so good.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Staff was wonderful considering there were a lot of rude people onboard.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
The Prima is designed for a warm weather cruise…not a cold weather cruise. The ship is beautiful, but it is form over function. Lot of little meeting spaces.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
The stateroom was beautiful. Best bathroom at sea. Plenty of storage room. Didn’t need our over the door shoe organizer.
Did an excursion to Bruges. Town was charming. Did a canal boat ride. Only problem was that it was very crowded. Four day holiday in Europe, so the ports were very crowded.
Easy Peary. NCL paid to bring UK immigration onboard, so we were able to do immigration a few days before we arrived. After our embarkation nightmare, this was delightful.
