Quick Brief: My family had cruised before but this was my first time. We Sailed in June 2012 from Barcelona aboard the NCL EPIC...

EMBARCATION & DISEMBARCATION- Embarkation in Barcelona was very quick and easy, no long waits to check in. Our room was ready as soon as we boarded just after midday. Airport to the Port in a taxi is approx 30euros. Throughout the trip getting on and off was a lot easier than I expected, swipe of your card and your free to walk off. At the end of the cruise we chose the option to take our own luggage off which meant we could walk off any time before 8.30am. No set times for disembarkation or colour coded collection for luggage. Very easy!

THE SHIP- The ship is very big as you would expect, 19 floors if I remember correctly. Although this size, the ship has a small 2 floor atrium with nothing glitzy about it. The main outdoor area is deck 15 which has 2 small pools and the 3 water slides which were great fun for everyone. Towards the aft of the deck is the adult's only pool and bar area. We found you could always get a sunbed somewhere, even on a sea day.

Balcony

Lots of Storage, not much floor space. Balcony was a good size. Toilet and Shower behind frosted glass, not the most private.
