Review summary
While the flights to and fro were long and painful, the Hawaiian islands and the people were great. With this itinerary, the Pride of America is more like a floating hotel and less like a cruise ship. It lacks the quality entertainment and quality food of many cruise lines. It was great that the ship was only half full so it was never crowded. However, too many of the venues were closed. The pool Bar closing at 6 PM? No bar at the aft pool? The embarkation process was slow, with much sitting and waiting. Debarkation was more efficient. The cabins were available several hours later than common on other cruise lines. The Norwegian app was a total waste of time. The Internet access that was a part of my package disappeared with absolutely no usage. I would have gone to complain but it was easier to just use my cell phone data plan. I enjoyed the small ship that was easier to get around than the modern mega ships. Some of the cruise port were very weird sandwich between cargo lines. That said, the itinerary is great! Excursions were very good. Very expensive but an excellent way to visit Hawaii.Embarkation
