Don’t expect to much as with all the cut backs it’s not the same

Increased tips and decreased service. Never made to feel special.

If this is your first cruise, you will be happy. If you are an avid cruiser, the ship and entertainment will disappoint.

Not a typical cruise.

Take advantage of as many of the onboard activities as possible.

Bring binoculars to Alaska! If you are Latitudes member, be sure and sign up for wine tasting and other latitudes events on embarkation day. I didn’t and they claimed they were full. This has not happened to me on other Norwegian ships. Enjoy and try all of the Sail and Sustain cocktails!

NCL Sun is cheap if you want to spend less money

Apply for passports at least 120 days in advance. I was able to board the cruise with my certified birth certificate but I could not partake in several Canadian shore excursions out of Alaska ports of call.

If you are going for more then 7 days definitely splurge for the upgrade and get the suite. So many advantages with it. Priority on and off ship, breakfast and lunch in specialty restaurants, large cabin, and staff to help with everything. I wish I can bring my butler home!

If you are with someone who has difficulty walking a long way, I recommend a cabin located mid or aft ship.

Book a balcony. So many wonderful sights to see

Plan to eat at odd times to avoid the crowds on main buffet. The set up is awful so people waiting in line to get plates behind people waiting for pasta bar. They have items being served like hot oatmeal. Why? That causes holdups. Just very poorly designed and arranged.

Take a bathing suit even though it's Alaska. For an alternative for a buffet, go to the Great Outdoors on deck 11 aft. behind the Garden Cafe.

Enjoy yourself.

The announcements over the loudspeaker is very very difficult to understand.

I read a lot of negative reviews and it had me worried. We had our hiccups, engine troubles the first day that made us arrive 4 hours later in Juneau and of course the slight odor smell in my cabin, but I still had a great time on the Sun. I met and talked to very nice people, passengers and staff alike. And as NCL says, I got to do "as little or as much as I like" and enjoyed every minute of it.

Ship was easy to navigate. Service and food variety was great.

The ship is older but has a comfy feel to it
