First Time Cruiser • Age 30s

I’m not gonna lie, but the staff on the cruise was great. Did we miss a port because of of winds, yes. Did the casino kick my butt, yes. But you can’t blame the crew and the staff for that. We were first time cruises , getting our feet wet. But overall, my wife and I enjoyed it. The staff did their best to help those who came first. My best respect came from the bar staff, I was not a typical ...

I chose this cruise because of its itinerary; in particular, Italy and Spain ports. I was very satisfied with booking process and the help I re wives from NCL agents . NCL had good pricing and promotions like drink package, on board credit, 150 min of free WIFI, and specialty dining. We were happy with our stateroom(10th floor, window) and our steward. Overall, the NCL staff was friendly, ...

We chose this cruise for the price and the ports. Our cruise included a good drink package and $50 off of each excursion for one of us as well as two specialty dinners. The staff was very friendly and efficient. We did not like having to pass through the smoky casino to get to restaurants, and that the smoke infiltrated the atrium areas. Time for a new air exchange system or don't the smokers ...

We booked this cruise 1 1/2 years ago when it was supposed to be the new ship, Viva. It wasn't finished due to supply chain issues and the Getaway went in it's place. There were well over 4K people on this ship AND 1500 children. Way too many people. I thought the food at Savor, Tropicana, and Taste were really good. We would upgrade and get the Cagney Steak for $15 upcharge. There were so many ...

We sailed on NCL Getaway in July and August 2023 on a cruise from Lisbon, Portugal to Southampton, England. My wife and I are in our 60s and have cruised over 30 times with 9 of those on NCL. Overall we enjoyed this cruise although there were some irritating aspects. EMBARK: Embarkation in Lisbon was very smooth. We arrived at 1130am and were onboard the ship within 15 minutes (by 2pm we ...

6-10 Cruises • Age 70s

A family member encouraged me to try a Norwegian cruise because they had been on a shorter cruise on a different Norwegian ship in the Caribbean and they booked a suite. I booked a balcony room on the Getaway and the room was horribly small. The beds were uncomfortable, the couch was hard and low to the floor, the half size hanging clothes closet was in the corner and you had to squeeze yourself ...

2-5 Cruises • Age 60s

The following problems occurred prior to and during our cruise. For the record, this was our Anniversary cruise too. They couldn't schedule our return flight for five days after the cruise, eliminating our ability to take advantage of the buy one get one free Airfare promotion. I ended up paying double for my own airfare. Then to add insult to injury, without speaking to me, one of their ...

Not impressed with food quality

2-5 Cruises • Age 60s

One of the main reasons for a cruise is the food. In the past you could get a very good meal without going to a specialty restaurant, that does not look to be the case anymore. This is our 4th cruise and this was the worst food by far, we did not have a good meal in the complimentary restaurants. The complimentary restaurants were subpar with no flavor and low quality. The exception was ...

I am writing because I have cruised before with Norwegian, and I thought food and service was great. Not this time! We booked this as a very important ovation, party of seventeen through diferente parts of Europe… captains devotions ( because weather wasn’t bad) prohibited us to desembarco in Two destinations… Instead of having a 9 day cruise just with one sea day we turned out having 3 sea ...
