Review summary

We will cruise Norwegian again, we like the Cruise Line, but never the Norwegian Sky. We made the best of the ship, but really enjoyed the time we spent with the Repetto’s

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Easy and quick

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5

Cagney’ beef was tough and grizzly. Variety in restaurants was very limited and not prepared well. It’s a little thing, but serving spoons for back row items burned your hands. Tables were not cleared.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Normal fare which is getting repetitive and boring.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

Some were good, specialty, some were poor to very poor, open seating restaurants.

Ship Quality

2 out of 5

Not much done.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

Very small. Othe Norwegian and other lines were larger

Ship tip

Attitude starts at the top, with the Captain and Officers. This is an old ship. Crew acts like they are tired and can’t wait to get off.

Too harsh......I think your mind was made up before you went aboard. The ship was FAR from tired.

Great itinerary on a small ship with fewer venues
