We decided to take this cruise due to the price and the fact that it went out of New York (we live in Boston). We had done the NCL Majesty out of Boston to Bermuda a few years ago and loved it, loved the free style dining option and at that time brought 3 teenagers with us. Last year we did the Royal Jewel of Seas 12 day cruise out of Boston to Caribbean and Bermuda and that was great however we don't like the seating at the same dining room each evening with the same people (much older than us). I had read many good and poor reviews but we decided to do this trip on the cheap and booked an inside cabin. We had learned from previous that the lower the floor you are on the less your feel the ship rock so we were satisfied with being on the 5th floor. Did not miss the ocean view which we had on our last cruise. The room was very clean and plenty of space for two. The bathroom was nice and bigger than previous. Our cabin attendants were very thoughtful and answered every request we had from an egg crate for the bed, to multiple ice refills and even silverware.

Was a bit afraid leaving out of NY in January (fearing snowstorms) but the travel agent convinced us to take the bus from Boston to NY (Entertainment Tours). It was a great suggestions, picked us up right on time, nice ride to NY, and easy transfer on the pier and back. Was well worth the money!

Check in at the pier was not bad, about an hour and we were on the boat eating and drinking. Our luggage arrived well before 7:00 (the suggested time). We had researched each restaurant and made our reservations for 5 of the specialty restaurants as soon as we boarded. We did travel with two other couples so we made some nights table for 6 and some nights just the two of us. We had planned and researched ahead so we knew which nite was the captain's dinner, which nites we were in port, when, and times to be back, which nites the football games were on (poor Pats), etc.
