I have been on several cruises on different cruise lines. Norwegian is by far the worst so far. Here is why:

1.) In the first few days frozen deck drinks actually had some booze in them. I'm not a drunkard, but I like to have a couple drinks to just chill. With two I was relaxed. But in the last 3-4 days, I noted the same drinks had almost no booze in them. To verify this, I went to the bar and watched them make the drinks. They would make and entire pitcher and just put in a splash of rum for maybe 6 or more drinks! What? So basically the day I discovered this I realized I was on like my 5 or 6 drink and it had ZERO taste of rum. Folks none of us need all the sugar and to get up to go pee due to all the fluid. They CHEAP you on the booze in the later part of the cruise! That makes me angry. I had to ASK for extra booze in my drinks so i did not heave to order and drink 10 of them! Cheapskates! Sure you can get around this by ordering beer or wine but that is not what I want on my cruise! I wanted frozen drinks with some booze in them!

2.) Pools are tiny. Good luck. My son got chemical burns from the pools due to tiny size. They have to use major doses of chemicals due to small size. Terrible.
