We have always wanted to go to Hawaii, and time it worked out!
We were on the 12th cruise after the March 2016 refurbishment. On 6/18/2016, I started a thread on the Norwegian Cruise Line (Pride of America subforum) titled “Pride of America Tips” which you may find helpful.
We were Hawaii ‘newbies’ and concerned during our planning about what excursions to pick. If you’re in the same “boat,” here are our thoughts:
Very small balcony cabin, port side. Just big enough for 2 people. Lots of storage areas, though.
We took the tender in around 8 pm and toured on our own. We did much of our shopping here. There is a mini-bus shuttle to Walmart from the bus parking lot right next to the pier.
