We chose this cruise since it was close to home and available during the week we wanted to go on vacation. It was a pretty terrible cruise with the Captain almost getting us killed sailing into a storm with over 100mph gales that were forecasted, We woke at night with the ship listing and everything flying in our room. Many people on the ship were injured. Shame on the Captain for proceeding with ...
This was our second cruise out of NYC with Norwegian. No complaints. We had an indecent on our second night with the ship getting hit with a strong wind gust and the ship listing to one side for about 5 minutes. It wasn't as bad as it was made out to be in the news reports. Yes it was scary but the crew handled it well and clean up was quick and by 6:00 am the next morning there was no indication ...
My 60th BDay cruise and I had a blast. This was a last minute decision and I'm so so glad I did. The price was right, I live in New York so its convenient. The Entertainment was great. They also have Celebrities on the ship. I went to a show to see the fabulous Sharon Wilkins. Matter of fact it was Dinner and a show, A 5 course dinner and a show for a very small fee. I absolutely loved it had ...
To start, I was on this cruise that got hit by 115mph winds and made some news headlines. I would commend the crew for their professionalism and help during this incident and afterwards. The remainder of this review reflects the cruise overall.
Being in the Haven made this cruise a bit more bearable. My wife and I traveled with her mother who was turning 76, she has mobility issues, and this ...
My 9 year-old son and I travelled on the Escape from New York to Nassau on march 2019. We were just the 2 of us for a week full of activities and adventures... Did not go as expected. FYI, it costed us 2300$ for the cruise and an extra 1000$ for all other fee, and I did not have a drop of alcohol or eat in a restaurant. (extra is for parking in NY pier, Shore excursions - kennedy space center and ...
This will go down as one of the most "eventful" cruises I've ever taken.
Had some time off and at the last minute (say less than 3 weeks) I decided to take a cruise. Didn't care where it was going to, or what port. I just wanted to get away after a grueling Holiday (personal reasons).
Going solo, I thought about getting a solo cabin. But, I just so happen to like nice cabins when I ...
The first night we had very rough seas and at the captains request we stayed in our rooms after dinner. After that things were just fine. Cape Canaveral was inspiring and educational. Every person in the world should experience it and at least every American will feel so very proud. When we got to the Bahamas we were in Nassau. And after the glass bottom boat( ho-hum), we took a transfer ( $4 ...
First day out we encountered severe wind gusts up to 115 MPH which caused our ship to tilt to a 45 degree angle. Scary yes, but even more alarming the lack of an acceptable explanation from the ship's captain. Injuries were sustained, property destroyed and or broken, and the only explanation "we encountered a severe wind gust". It was like explain nothing and hope no-one asks as the captain's ...
On Sunday, March 3rd, just hours after leaving New York, the Escape experienced a sudden unexpected wind gust causing the ship to tilt. I will first say that the crew and staff were remarkable in handling the situation at the time and place where I was. I cannot comment on other areas of the ship although I did speak with other passengers that were not as impressed as I was. And while you cannot ...
We ended up choosing this particular cruise so we could enjoy the best of two worlds. The ship, and the port destinations. Being that this was our first cruise, and one of the biggest ships in the industry, we had to allow ourselves enough time to enjoy both things. The staff on the Norwegian Escape were the best and truly made you feel welcomed and taken care of. Our first night was an ...
