Review summary

Spending $851 a day (7311.69 + 1200 cabin upgrade to #11610) was not worth sailing with N. Star. It was a major mistake sailing with NCL where I could have sailed with other cruise lines for a much better value for what I had spent.

Ship tip

I wouldn't recommend travelung with Norwegian Cruise Lines. Their cost structures because of their hidden additional cost and service charges.
