I'm writing this to warn any and everybody of what a sad trip I just had on the Norwegian Dawn. And this was supposed to be a very special Christmas Cruise. It was anything but - except the outrageous price. This occurred during the week of Christmas 2013.
I've cruised several times before on Carnival and Royal Caribbean and never had such a forgettable trip.
First, it took forever to check-in. My family and I arrived at about 12:45pm and there was a huge line. It took some two hours before we got into our cabins.
The cabin was clean and spacious - just its location was not ideal (deck 4) we heard everything the crew was doing below and it was annoying.
