Let me start this review by saying Norwegian used to be my absolute favorite cruise line. Now however, they are simply just like the majority of others. They seem to be very focused on making as much money as they can, even if it means charging for things which used to come with the standard cruise experience. It reminds me a lot of what we see happening with the airlines. Services which used to come with the price of the cruise are now suddenly an additional charge or have to be specifically requested. I am not saying Norwegian is the only line operating with this business model, because they are not. I am just more disappointed in the behavior from them because I thought they held themselves to a higher standard.

All of that said, I loved the solo cabins. They are just the right size for one person and super cute. It was like traveling in a futuristic space pod. The lounge was also a wonderful perk. The food was average altough my favorite place to eat was actually the pub. I usually really enjoy the dining room experience but the service was just not present. Shows not to miss would be: Howl at the Moon and the Cirque Dinner...so worth the money and the food was great. I hope the slide to pay more and get less will stop soon because I thinking cruising is the best way to travel.
