Review for a Transatlantic Cruise on Norwegian Epic

I have been on previous repositioning Epic cruises. My cousin traveled with me and she has been on 9 repositioning Epic cruises at this same time of year. It seemed like a sure thing....BUT surprise! This cruise was a nightmare from start to finish!
Embarkation was a nightmare. We are both disabled and the embarkation staff didn't know what to do with us. Then my cousin was asking for ...

Although I have done many cruises with different cruise companies, this was my first time with Norwegian Cruise Lines. It started off very poorly. It took us over 2 hours standing in line, with my partner who has mobility issues, to get registered for boarding.
We had an issue with our beverage package which was not accepted although I showed them the paper work. Guest services was not very ...

I wasn’t sure what to expect from this ship after reading so many reviews, but during my time onboard I fell in love with this ship and wouldn’t hesitate to go on the Epic again.
We boarded in Barcelona, and were met with long lines checking in at the terminal. While I found this a bit of a speed bump to the start of our cruise I didn’t let it bother me. Everyone was doing their best to get ...

We chose this cruise for the itinerary. We have sailed Norwegian once before (The Jade). Our cruise started with a 1/2 hr line to drop off our luggage and then 2 1/2 hours in line to checkin. Luckily it was not a rainy day but it was hot. No adequate explanation- just blamed the port people. With 4100 passengers on board elevator access was often an issue. On disembarkation day there was over a 2 ...

While I will sail on Norwegian again, it will not be on the Epic. The first leg of the trip, there were 3 of us in a mini-suite with plenty of room and enough storage. The second leg, we were joined by another friend and were moved to a "family" balcony which would sleep 4. This was smaller and had limited storage. The fourth bed dropped down from the ceiling and it was difficult to get to the ...

From embarkation to disembarkation, it was a wonderful cruise. My advice: do some research beforehand so that you can set your expectations accordingly, and so details like the bathroom setup and show reservations will not come as bad surprises during the cruise.
Dining: Exceptional variety of food in the buffet. Everyday there was a special in the Garden Cafe (seafood night, asian, bavarian ...

Firstly, I need to point out that the reason for this bad review is not so much the fault of NCL or the management & crew of the Norwegian Epic (although they do need to take responsibility for making and enforcing changes) but more my fellow passengers. All the points and remarks I am about to make I have already made while onboard and since by email to NCL so, at future Cruise Critic Meet & ...

Please see my review of The Epic Apr 1 to 14 which immediately preceded this cruise.
This was my B2B from The Crossing I just did from Port Canaveral to Barcelona and I just stayed on the ship and in the same cabin (which I highly recommend) If you do a B2B always stay in the same cabin if you can, it makes it so very nice.
Nothing more to tell since my other review that I just wrote.
I ...

We have been wanting to cruise on the Epic since we were on the Jade in 2011 and watched the video presentation of this latest ship in the NCL fleet. Since then, we've looked at many reviews of the ship, and finally we found an itinerary that suited us. We had a balcony room just forward of mid-ship on the starboard side (10075). It was the second balcony where the side of the ship flares out, ...

Chose the cruise due to good timing round the Easter. I have done 2 cruises on Epic before. I only had dinners in Specialty restaurants - which were mainly positive experiences - there was some service slowness issues on Wasabi and food quality issue on Cagney's but mostly was happy with the food. Breakfast and lunch experience I have from Taste and buffet and both met expectations. Worst ...
